Located in Germany's Bavarian Forest, Fluco manufactures 100% in-house at its headquarters in the town of Furth im Wald. Owner Ulrich Fleischmann represents the third generation of his family to lead the company that his grandfather founded more than 70 years ago, producing handmade watch straps of the highest quality for men and women.
Fluco carefully vets every partner they collaborate with. They work only with tanneries that produce ecologically and ethically responsible leather, complying with the strictest regulations to ensure environmental safety and exercising verifiable control from the origin of the raw material to the end product. Fluco's buckles are made entirely in Germany, at a traditional company in Baden Württemberg that tasks itself with producing premium clasps for watch straps.
Fluco's Casablanca strap is handmade in Germany using vegetable-tanned cowhide leather from Tuscany. Because no chemicals are used to treat the leather, it retains its natural character; the resulting tonal gradations and minor cosmetic irregularities contribute to the rustic appeal and patina. The Casablanca is accentuated with fine all-round stitching in a light contrasting color. The last stitch at each end is double-stitched, as are the bartack stitches at the buckle. Using clear lacquer, each edge is varnished, smoothed and polished several times by hand. This strap has a vegetable-tanned leather lining.
