FAQ

Q: Do you sell watch bands for women?
A: We do! Many of our short-length straps are the perfect size for women.

Q: Can you suggest a strap that looks amazing with my watch?
A: Unfortunately, because the range is so vast (and personal taste is subjective), we cannot advise regarding aesthetic suitability for specific models and styles of watches.

Q: I have an Apple watch. Will any of your straps work for me?
A: Sure! Our handy Apple watch band adapters accommodate most 22mm straps.

Q: Are spring bars available?
A: Yes, for each strap that is not already integrated with quick-release spring bars, we include one free pair of strong, seamless double-flange stainless steel bars.

Q: What strap size do I need?
A: To determine your size, use a metric ruler to measure the internal distance (in millimeters) between the lugs of your watch.

Q: My Bonetto Cinturini deployant strap is too long. Can you help?
A: Of course! See our Bonetto Cinturini sizing guide for cutting instructions.

Q: Do you offer international shipping?
A: Yes! Visit our Shipping & Returns page for more information.

Excellent work from Fluco, as usual.

Fantastic strap. You can't get shell cordovan this nice anywhere for a better price. Stitching is excellent and quality is excellent. Throw your factory buckle on there and you have a heck of a nice package.

Very satisfied.

Really enjoying my new Fluco Chicago Horween Shell Cordovan Brown Flat Leather Watch Strap. It feels very comfortable and pliable, without feeling cheap. I like that it is just starting to get small scuffs and "patina". In my opinion this strap is very simple looking, and not eye catching, which is what I wanted, yet is of good quality. Sort of under the radar nd understated. If you want that confidence in quality this a a good strap for you. It pairs well with my BALL Engineer M Pioneer 2. This is my second watch strap purchase and I will be returning for more in the future. Very satisfied!

Fluco flat straps

The flat Fluco straps are great. They are thick enough to be strong, but thin enough (and the leather is of high quality) that they are flexible. My wrist has become thin, and aome padded straps are too stiff to be comfortable. The Fluco Horween leather is beautiful leather, and the strap is well made and fits very comfortably.

I needed a short strap in a cognac-like color for my wedding. I bought this and a Molequin Nubuck watch strap for double the price for my wedding hoping one would match the cognac shoes/belt nicely. While the Molequin Nubuck was more comfortable and had better edge finishing, this is an extremely nice and comfortable strap for the price and I had no reservations at all about making it my pick for the wedding. The color match to cognac was very close, and the buckle sits nicely. My only wish is that there was an option with color matched/more subdued stitching as I was using this on a dress watch (Oris Artelier S) but it’s not a big deal. I’ll probably be back for a black one at some point.

Very sharp looking , very durable strap. Hard to beat.

If you aren’t familiar with cordovan, you might think it’s plastic at first glance. It’s that smooth and uniform. The brown looks fantastic with yellow gold. It’s hard to show how sharp and clean looking it is. It’s also lined. Custom Horween Cordovan straps cost twice as much!! The Fluco butterfly clasp (you have to buy it separately) is a nice upgrade . Cordovan doesn’t need much care, but if need be pick up a bottle of Venetian Shoe Cream (elsewhere) to restore the shine.
