Hello everyone. *Here is an example of a strap made from Vintage Mauser leather. *It was created from a military vintage rifle sling. *Great care was taken to retain or re-use the the lacing holes already in the leather. *Double layered near the lug area and single layered on the long end. *Very soft and completely oiled. *Naturally aged and scared through years of use but the strap maintains its integrity to hold your timepiece securely. *These straps are truly one of a kind and will not be offered as custom designs. *They will only be offered as they are made and when the supply exists. *Stamped with the SS makers mark and size.

* * *It is my belief that a vintage ammo designed strap should be made as the leather dictates. *Discoloration, stains and scuffs as well as previous lacing holes and armory stamps should be preserved. *They add to the originality and character of the strap. They also ensure each one is truly one of a kind. *I feel that the strap should be made to display these characteristics to give you a strap with a story. *

Here is another one made from a rifle oiling can WWII pouch. The pouch that was used was very dark and rich. When the leather pouch was torn down it revealed a very nice reddish brown lighter in color that was protected throughout the years. It made for a really nice looking vintage strap. *New leather added on the underside for comfort and durability.
