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.
A true classic, Fluco's Kroco strap is handmade in Germany from high quality calfskin leather that is embossed with a realistic crocodile-grain pattern. The Kroco has a slim profile with moderate padding, making it a good choice for vintage or dress watches. It has a semi-matte finish. The lining leather is water-repellent and hypoallergenic.
I ordered a 17mm band to go with my father's Omega watch from the sixties and Hollins matched it perfectly. I wear it everyday.
I recently acquired some of my grandfather's watches from the 40's and 50's and they were in need of mechanical repair and cosmetic improvements. Got the mechanicals taken care of from a local watchmaker, then I turned to Holben's based on the recommendation of a fellow watch enthusiast. A few bands were suggested to me, I purchased them, and couldn't be happier. The bands look great, feel great, and are of high quality. Definitely make my vintage watches look terrific.
I was looking for a blue, crocodile band for my 17mm Concord, and found that surprisingly difficult to find in the states. Eventually Googling my way here, I was thrilled to find exactly what I was looking for. Now that I’ve received the band, I’m impressed with the look, quality, and comfort. Time will tell how it holds up, but for now I’m thoroughly satisfied with my purchase.
These embossed Fluco straps are excellent. Instantly comfortable with minimal break in, love the non tapered vintage look. Highly recommend.
Great strap. Needs a little break in time to get really comfortable, but it's not as long as others I own. The color is nice and it suits my old watch very well.
I really like this watch band. My first from Holben . It fits perfectly on my restored Hamilton watch. I will most definitely be buying more from Holben in the future.
The strap looks nice, but it isn't very functional when the prog consistently slips through the buckle whenever I put the watch on and try to tighten it.
Solid quality strap that I added to my Nomos with midnight blue dial. The strap broke in quickly and was a comfortable wear.
