The Melbourne is defined by the raised quill pattern that comes with genuine ostrich leather. Each section shows a slightly different arrangement of these marks, so the surface avoids a uniform look. Off-white stitching runs along the edges and stands out against the warm tone of the leather. Melbourne works easily with both dress watches and sport cases. Made in Italy, it follows a traditional leatherworking approach.

Material & feel

The strap is made from genuine ostrich leather, a material known for its natural quill pattern and irregular grain. The leather has a soft, flexible feel while maintaining enough structure to hold its shape during wear. The underside is lined with calfskin leather that is breathable and hypoallergenic for direct skin contact. Integrated quick-release spring bars allow for tool-free changes.

Wear & care

Splash only, avoid soaking and prolonged water exposure.

Clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid leather cleaners or conditioners, which may darken or affect the grain. Keep away from prolonged moisture and direct sunlight. If damp, dry with a soft cloth and allow to air dry fully.

Looks and feels great!

Purchased this for a vintage watch I got from Ukraine at the beginning of the year. And the ostrich strap works incredibly well with the pvd black.

Great quality strap

Purchased this to pair with my Sinn 104. The color of the leather works really well with the black dial, but I think it is extremely versatile. Very pleased with the quality and feel of this one.

Good looking watch band

I have purchased some ostrich-skin bands from Amazon for some of my inexpensive watches. However, for my Seiko Alpinist I wanted something better. I have purchased a number of Cola Reb watches from Holbens, and I have never been disappointed. Highly recommended.

Great leather, great hardware. The color is exactly what I was looking for and the taper is tight for a comfortable fit.
