Black Leather Watch Band with Stainless Steel Buckle, 24mm

A 24mm black belting leather watch band finished with a brushed stainless steel buckle in the Panerai style, sized at 7.5 inches in length and 6mm in thickness.

Belting leather is a heavy, full-grain leather originally developed for industrial drive belts, prized for its density and resistance to stretching. Paired with a Panerai-style buckle — a flat, pre-V-shaped tongue buckle popularized by the Italian watchmaker's oversized pilot and dive watches — the format has become a standard among collectors of larger sport and tool watches.

The 24mm width suits oversized watch cases and reads as bold and masculine on the wrist. The belting leather construction tends to wear in rather than wear out, softening with use while holding its shape. It suits a buyer with a larger sport, dive, or pilot watch who wants a substantial strap built for daily wear.
