Babele Calfskin Watch Strap - Natural
Size Guide
I need the length of each of these, typically the standard size is 125/70mm which tends to fit the average sized wrist as an example
To measure this the easiest thing to do is measure a strap that you may already have that fits perfectly and send me these, or alternatively measure the circumference of your wrist with a tape measure or a piece of string to then measure and send me that figure and I can recommend
Please reference the notes below for size appropriate for your wrist
Measuring lug, buckle and length can simply be done with a ruler, but for more accurate measurements I suggest getting some digital calipers online which are very cheap but remarkably helpful if you think you’ll use them again in future. I couldn’t be without mine now!
Bear in mind that the size of the watch head also needs to be taken in to account and deducted from your wrist circumference. Most watch heads are typically 1-1.5″
For a size guide please reference the below and also note that you can simply contact me for any advice at all:
- 6.1 - 6.5″ wrist (154 – 165mm) = 110/65
- 6.6 - 7″ wrist (167 – 177mm) = 120/70
- 7.1 - 7.5″ wrist (180 - 190mm) = 125/75
- 7.6 - 8″ wrist (193 - 203mm) = 130/80
- 8.1 – 8.5″ wrist (205 - 215mm) = 135/80
- 8.6 -9″ wrist (218 – 228mm) = 140/85
- 9.0+″ wrist (229mm+) = 145/90
If you do not have a belt to hand simply take the waist size of your favourite jeans and add 2 inches to their waist size

Description
Babele has a wonderful visual appearance often referred to as 'linen' due to the very fine lines and appearance on the surface. This leather is sourced from the famous Tempesti Tannery in Italy
The feel of Babele leather is slightly course to the touch but the strap itself remains extremely pliable to wear on the wrist. A great casual strap that works well for an array of occasions.

Babele Calfskin Watch Strap - Natural
The Process
Handmade Watch Straps
Each leather watch strap is meticulously handmade with traditional techniques and saddle stitched for durability and a visually appealing finish
Materials
Quality to be proud of.
Sourcing the finest leathers and materials has always been at the core of our business. We source leather from all over the world but largely from Europe, England and Japan. We are always on the hunt for new and exciting leathers that are beautiful to us and I hope to you as well.
We do not use skins or hides from animals farmed for their skin alone. All leathers and skins are a bi-product of the meat industry. This is a personal choice and one we are committed to.
