Alisdair Report post Posted April 18, 2018 Hi guys, Here's my first attempt at a watchstrap. I like the texture of the pigskin. Stitching is okayish. Any advice welcome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charon Report post Posted April 18, 2018 Well done, I like the cross stitch on the keeper. Greetings from the neighbour country! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tugadude Report post Posted April 18, 2018 Nice job. I have a color that would work better so if you want to send me the watch..... What was your thinking on having the fixed keeper and the floating keeper not match? Watch straps are notoriously difficult to do well. Even high-end houses have the occasional wonky stitch. You did well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iWERKS Report post Posted April 18, 2018 Great first attempt!. My first strap didn't turn out nearly as nice as yours. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regarding the keeper being different, I wanted to add a fancy stitch somewhere, but not on the strap itself, which I wanted to be quite sober...so it's just a quirky signature.
