Swiss Ammo Strap for Blancpain Fifty Fathoms:

Swiss Ammo Strap for Blancpain Fifty Fathoms – This strap was one that I had made a while back for a customer in the US for his Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Chronograph, which I had the opportunity to mount on a local customer’s Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Ref. 5015 to check the fitment and share with you.  Swiss Ammo straps are made from leather salvaged from original Antique and vintage Swiss Army ammunition pouches.

The manufacture of these pouches were ordered by the Swiss military from about the 1890s through the 1960s and were contracted from Swiss saddlers throughout Switzerland.  The stamping show on these straps are the original maker and date stamping of the Swiss saddlers that made the pouches and a small stamping with a Swiss cross, which is Swiss government inspection stamp.

  
All our Swiss ammo straps are bespoke made from the pouch as chosen by my customer from my current stock of pouches.  I currently have a very nice selection of Swiss Ammo Strap from which to choose. Additionally, all Swiss Ammo straps made from Pouch backs with stampings will come with a complimentary keychain made from the center belt loop of your ammo pouch. 
This strap was made with padding at the lugs and also with our exclusive ‘Thick Curved Lug System’ (TCLS) which provides the strap with an integrated fit between the lugs
