German watchmaker and master craftsman Riemer Oswald established RIOS1931 more than eighty-five years ago. Now in its third generation of family ownership, RIOS1931 is an industry leader for high quality, handmade leather watch accessories.
Looking for a strap to suit your pilot or tool watch? RIOS1931's Typhoon is a great option. Handmade in Germany from genuine buffalo leather, it features the Art Manuel Swiss full-bugg (Rembordé) construction technique, set off by handmade saddler's seams. For those with sensitive skin, the Typhoon is hypoallergenic, as well as supple and comfortable on the wrist.
Although this is 22mm strap and I bought it for another watch, I was able to install it into my Brequet Type XX chrono that has nonstandard 21mm lug width. It pairs with the watch perfectly. I like this strap better than original alligator strap that looks too dressy to my taste; it enhances the tool pilot look. Thank you Holben’s, 5 stars, highly recommended!
Another fantastic Rios pilot strap for my Brietling Navitimer chrono from Holben’s! Thick but soft nicely textured leather. Rich chocolate color, contrasting stitching. Terrific vintage pilot look. I wish the strap had quick release bars. Thank you Holben’s, 5 stars!
Great buffalo leather strap. The strap is very comfortable and durable, thick but not stiff. It is very supple and doesn’t need to be broken in. It is just what I was looking for to compliment my Hanhart pilot chronograph. Nice color as well. You can’t go wrong with this strap.
