Cool straps, buckles, decorative inserts and metal loops - must look!)

Post by Anton Straps&Buckles »

Let's be familiar: my name is Anton ... and I'm a strapsholiсk from Moscow! :D A man carried away by straps for watch and buckles to them. :crazy:

Image

In early 2015, I became the owner of the Panerai 359 and was fascinated by the study of straps and buckles of various manufacturers, which resulted in my own collection of straps and buckles. These sets I collected very thoughtfully, so that the strap and buckle matched each other, creating harmony.

Image

I also "infect" my wife with a new hobby, which now reliably changes the straps to her STEINHART "Russian Ladies Special Edition Tulip black 2016", and her still modest collection of straps slowly but surely grows)

Image

For my straps I not only bought buckles around the world, but also invented a few of my own.

Image

This process fascinated me and I set up the production of author's buckles of silver, bronze and brass.

To date, I can offer buckles of 22 types
Image

Image

Image

Image

decorative inserts of 15 types

Image

and several types of metal loops)

Image

I have many ideas of unusual buckles for watch straps and I gradually embody my ideas in life.
Here I will talk about the buckles and straps and upload beautiful photos.
I hope you will be interested)

I do not have ready straps and buckles in stock. But if you like something, I can make it in 2-4 weeks :thumbup:

Welcome!

The metal loops would be a good choice for a Panerai Compass strap.

Thanks for the friendly welcome, Emilio! :wave:
Yes, metal loops look cool! Moreover, they can be installed decorative inset)

Many thanks for your appreciation!)
Buckles are made by casting. Therefore, yes, 925 sterling silver, bronze, brass... Gold!)
But I rarely put the sample. The fact is that it takes about 2 additional weeks of time and about 15 dollars. But the value of the buckle is not in the metal, but in its idea ;)

I also love to design different sets (strap + buckle). The fact is that I cooperate with 12 leather workshops (on my site there are about 1500 samples of straps). Therefore, for me it is not a problem to find even very rare leather)
The client shows me his watch, tells what he would like to see. And then I choose the leather, the type of thread, buckle and a bunch of little things)
As a result, the client receives a very beautiful, and most often, a unique set.
Here are some of my designs (here are my buckles as well as those of my partners). Judge you ;)

wow
"Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day,
And tell the world that everything's OK,
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,
'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black."

The first buckle that I invented!) I think Panerai experts do not need to explain what is written there and where the arrow on the spike comes from)))
