The Di-Modell Rallye is a classic racing-style strap defined by its perforated pinhole design and easy-wearing profile. Part of the Air-Ter-Mer Sport collection, it takes a lighter, more flexible approach than Di-Modell’s heavily padded sport straps while still feeling solid and well finished.
The Rallye pairs naturally with chronographs and racing-inspired watches, offering a sporty look that stays comfortable during long wear without unnecessary bulk.
Choosing a Di-Modell strap: Rallye vs. Chronissimo vs. Pilot
Handmade in Germany • Water resistance rated to 100m • Hypoallergenic Aero lining
Material & feel
The strap is made from high-quality calfskin with a soft, matte surface and a smooth, natural hand. The perforated construction allows the leather to bend easily and promotes airflow, giving the strap a relaxed, broken-in feel on the wrist.
On the underside, Di-Modell’s patented Aero lining provides a smooth, hypoallergenic surface that resists moisture and helps maintain comfort during extended wear. Di-Modell’s patented red loop anchor holds the floating keeper in place, preventing it from sliding during wear and keeping the strap tail neatly positioned for improved comfort.
The construction is rated to 100m and is suitable for regular exposure to perspiration and incidental contact with water without losing its shape.

Sizing & fit help
The Rallye is offered in a single length with a double-tang pin buckle for adjustment through paired buckle holes. The balanced cut works across a wide range of wrist sizes and sits securely without feeling bulky or restrictive.
The buckle engages two pins at once, distributing tension more evenly across the strap. This helps keep the strap centered and reduces stress on the perforated leather over time. The tradeoff is slightly less fine adjustment compared to a single-tang buckle, in exchange for added stability and durability.
Length & wrist size:
120mm / 80mm (fits wrists approx. 6.75–7.75in)
Measurements exclude the buckle.
Care & wear
Wipe clean with a soft cloth as needed. After exposure to water or heavy perspiration, rinse briefly with clean water, dry with a soft cloth, and allow to air dry completely at room temperature, ensuring the perforations are able to dry fully.
Avoid harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. While the strap is designed to tolerate regular moisture and sweat, it is best not to leave it submerged for extended periods or worn continuously while wet.
