1965 Swiss Ammo Skulls strap for U-Boat:

1965 Swiss Ammo Skulls strap for U-Boat: Hi strap lovers, I want to share with you all a 1965 Swiss Ammo strap I just completed.  This strap features thick gauge French Ecru accent stitching and Skull rivets in Antiqued Bronze finish.  The new thing that I would like to direct your attention to is the use of our recently arrived nickel finish Steel Roller buckle and extra metal keeper loop.  This is the first chance I’ve had to show these buckles off (we have them in 18, 20, 22, 24, and 26mm widths).  The strap featured here is 20mm wide and is using a 20mm roller buckle with an extra metal keeper loop, which I think gives the strap a real vintage pilot watch look.  These buckles have a very traditional nickel finish, which is shiny, but as per my customer’s request, I have given the buckle and loop a brushed finish.  I think it looks pretty damn good and I think it’s going to look great on Justin’s U-Boat watch!!
