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 Hunter 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 of this rugged strap. The Hunter is accentuated with vintage-style light contrasting bar tack stitches at the lug, buckle and tip, which are sewn by hand with waxed thread. Using clear lacquer, each edge is varnished, smoothed and polished several times by hand.

  • High quality, vegetable-tanned cowhide leather from Tuscany

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 me shorten it?
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.

Q: May I return my purchase?
A: Holben's Fine Watch Bands accepts returns of unworn, undamaged merchandise for refund or exchange within thirty days of purchase. Learn more on our Shipping & Returns page.

Beautiful strap but the 2 pieces are not the same width

The watch band is absolutely stunning. The blue really pops with the watch, and the leather quality is extremely high. Fluco rarely disappoints with their straps, but on this one, the top piece seems to be about 1mm narrower than the bottom piece. On my watch, the gap on the top spring bar is definitely visible, which is disappointing. Not the end of the world, but something to note.

Great strap

The Fluco strap was nicer than expected for the price, and shipping was very quick. Love it with this watch.

Amazing quality

Was looking for something to dress down my Movado Museum Sport. The stainless band just made it a bit too flashy for casual wear. This band is exactly what I was looking for. I’m always worried about quality when buying something like this online. Was very pleased with the quality and look of this band. Soft playable leather right out of the box. Not stiff or may need to break in. Recommend 10/10

Quality Strap

The quality of this strap is great, the leather is a bit thicker than I expected (in a good way). The only negative I have is that the olive leather on my particular strap isn’t nearly as green in real-life as on the site, it’s much closer to a natural leather tone.

High quality thick leather

Very happy with this strap. Have had it 2 and a bit years with nearly daily wear. Molded to my wrist very quickly. Stitching has held up well. Definitely see it lasting the life of the watch. The last hole fits my 6 and 3/4”wrist, had to add a shorter one for when it’s cold.

Beautiful strap

Really nice strap that I have been wearing on a vintage Rolex 6426 with a redone explorer style dial. Great to have this option in the somewhat difficult to find 19mm. Looks refined and versatile.

Looks great

Quality strap, well made, has a nice vintage racing vibe. This is a perfect upgrade for the rather cheap looking original strap on my Timex Flying Ace. The new strap really compliments the watch.

Fluco Hunter Olive Vegetable-Tanned Leather Watch Strap

Darker green than in the pictures. Thick leather and like most Flucco straps. As soon as the straps warm up to skin temperature, it's broke in. Flacco straps are soft right out of the package. Goes well on my Orient Mako 3 with ivory dial.

Love this band!

I ordered this for my vintage Kontiki that has a patina dial that looks champagne in color. This olive watch band compliments is nicely. It also makes the watch more contemporary and sporty looking. The quality is great. I’ll be ordering more bands from Holben for sure! It shipped so fast I couldn’t believe it.

Awesome Strap

Such an awesome straps. Purchased a black one several months ago & loved it. Ordered the Whiskey colored one this time for my Oris Chronoris & it looks simply awesome. Very comfortable. And the rally style strap is perfect for the watch design as it is inspired by the European motor sports.
Shipping was lighting fast as always. Very satisfied.
