Alex, the founder of British strapmaker Haveston, is fueled by a passion for horology and history. Throughout Haveston's varied and growing portfolio, its designs are defined by a focus on the honest utilitarian character of vintage military industrial equipment used by service personnel for aviation, space exploration, combat and other purposes.
Haveston believes that a watch strap, stowage roll or accessory should be synchronized with the historical aesthetic and character of your tool watch. Haveston's product selection includes a variety of styles and patterns, including the popular Canvas, Parade and Service series, each of which features either a traditional two-piece NATO layout or the company's game-changing A2 single-pass configuration. Haveston also offers HAV-IVA hook-and-loop Velcro bands, AAF riveted nylon with quick-release spring bars, vintage-wristwatch-inspired coasters, and M-1937 canvas stowage pouches.
If Haveston's commitment to continuous refinement and innovation is any indication, we can expect much more from the company -- with one underlying idea. According to Alex: "At the end of the day, it always comes back to that service-driven purpose, regardless of whether that is to your community, family, or the world. Having a little reminder of that on your wrist is quite special."
