Nomos Orion 33 White on Ostrich by D9
I am very happy to share with you a little gift to myself.
This time it is Tobacco Gloss Ostrich Leg Skin strap with Vintage Brown Lambskin lining and Kangaroo mid-layer - again by John Glance of Munich. John built two beautiful straps for me in the past, and I really like working with him. I think it turned out really well, and I am very happy  Please, enjoy with me, and thank you for looking :-)

I bet it's very soft on the wrist.

John actually built it quite soundly, but it wears very light and pleasant.

Looks great. I have an Orion date and a Metro PR that need some strap help. I love the Nomos Horween straps but they are so, well, plain I guess. Need to look up your strap guy. Been stalking a few others work and have bought from Artisan in the past.
Did the clasp come from him as well? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It has always been very, very nice to work with John. He does take his time, but I am never in a rush, and the result always has been worth the wait. Good luck, and I hope to see pictures of the new strap for your great watches.
