My Rolex Precision Watch With A Gunny Strap

Good Morning All

After reading a number of posts about custom leather straps and especially about Peter, I found his website in Dec. The delay was I could not make up my mind, all his straps are awesome. At last I settled on the Chocolate Fudge.

Emailed Peter, who was very helpful and guided me as to how to measure. order placed and about two weeks later an email arrived that my strap was completed.

Oped for Fedex $40(ouch). 4 days later I received and installed. I took a few pictures see below. Great craftsmanship..super soft and durable. Anyone interested in a leather strap alternative definitely contact Peter.

Forgot to post website....http://gunnystraps.blogspot.com/

I have worn this band daily with my favorite Rolex precision.I am careful about water, as Peter did say the band is not water proof. With proper care the strap wears like iron. Recently acquired a vintage Rolex Air King and ordered an identical strap. To do this kind of work with manual hand tools is amazing. Peter is a true craftsman. Buy with confidence..
