Headquartered in Klagenfurt, Austria, Hirsch was established in 1765 as a leather workshop and tannery. It remains a family-owned business to this day, and continues to gain recognition for excellence and innovation in watch strap design.

Looking for the finest quality full grain alligator grain-embossed Italian calfskin leather? You'll find it in Hirsch's Duke strap. With matching stitching, a semi-matte finish and medium padding, the Duke is a total classic. Hirsch's Softglove lining leather is hypoallergenic and gentle on the skin.

All of our Hirsch straps are integrated with handy quick-release spring bars. Prefer standard spring bars? Quick-release bars are easy to remove: simply slide the lever as far as you can to the left, then gently bend back the strap corner until the bar emerges from the slot.

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.

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

This strap made my watch wearable. Replaced, as like-for-like with a pin-buckle, for the strap on the SPB121, which I found profoundly uncomfortable. Finally putting this one I can enjoy it. It is comfortable out of the box. It has good bolstering but somehow is also conformant. As the owner of a ridiculously small wrist I really appreciate the availability of the shorter length; it is perfect.

My 7th purchase says it all

This is my 7th straps, purchased from Holbens since 2021! Mike (Owner of Holbens)provided unparalleled customer service/satisfaction each & every single time!

This strap is paired with my vintage pie pan connie. The quality of this strap is excellent. Soft & supple leather. The thickness is perfect for this 61 year old dress watch. The strap looks awesome & feels great on the wrist . Replaced the buckle with an Omega 18k yellow gold buckle!

Lightning fast shipping as always!

Great Quality

Beware of sizing as a normal length is L. Otherwise great strap overall. I wanted an alligator grain high gloss strap but this was the best option I've found. After some Saphir mirror gloss, it turned out to be exactly what I wanted.

Great strap

I'll keep it short but simply put this strap is fantastic quality at a great price. I used it on the 7750 chrono i built for myself which i take great pride in my customs so I wouldn't use anything that wasnt quality. Highly recommended by GS Watch Repair and Sales. Look us up on Instagram

A Perfect Complement to My Inherited Rolex

Inherited a vintage Rolex Date (manufactured in 1972). The original Rolex bracelet had rivets that prevented links from being removed without damaging the bracelet, and it could not be resized any smaller to accommodate my wrist. This Hirsch band (in 19mm Short) fits my Rolex--and my wrist--perfectly. The craftsmanship of the band is superb, and the Holben's price is unbeatable . . . true value for money! Quick, trouble-free shipping, too.
