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.
Hand-brushed to a brilliant shine, Hirsch's genuine Croco strap is constructed from South American deep barrel-dyed crocodile flank. Its slim profile showcases a typical net-type surface structure of large and small scales. Croco features a tone-on-tone backstitched seam, a hand-sewn bar seam along the buckle and safety stitching on the keeper. Hirsch's Silkglove 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.

I purchased this band because I sought after the real deal. I saw too many crocodile/alligator embossed grain replicas on typical leather, but I was after the genuine thing. Having come across this website, I found it and was able to secure it for slightly less than other retailers. The check-out process was promt and effortless and the watch band came packaged and preloaded with the bars within a few days' time. I am very impressed with Hirsch's quality and can see why my watch repair specialist made such a remark. Not even he sells this type of strap so it was evident that the product I bought was good, and hopefully one that will last for many years.
