It was a joy to watch your video as I have watched others that go so fast I couldn’t understand the methods. Thank you so much for sharing, I have a much better idea of how to go about making a watch strap now. Love your work ❤️ x
hello: After watching more than a hundred videos on watch strap making, I had not seen any as good as this one of yours. Congratulations! I don't speak English and I don't know if you have already been asked in any of the comments where I can buy the acrylic template that you use for this strap. Thank you.
Buenos días. Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately, it is currently not possible to order this templates. They are produced in Russia and there is no way to accept payment from abroad.
Glad you found it useful. I use ready-made templates, so I didn’t even think about this issue. The inside is narrower than the outside by 4mm on each side. That is, with a strap width of 18mm, the middle part has a width of 10mm
Love this video. It has inspired me to make a watch strap for my old Omega. Could you tell me where to find the stitching punches you use please. Thanks
Such as my can buy only in an russian online store. Any more stores solds it the low quality with burrs on inner side of tooth that tear the leather. My punches have a polished inner side of the tooth. groomix.ru/image/cache/catalog/Tools/Proboyniki/ProbKosPol-3-650x650-product_popup.jpg In the photo above is what is sold everywhere, below like my. I recommend the high quality punches from Wuta www.ebay.com/itm/152938982720

I don't always use different ones. It depends on what kind of leather is used for the face. For example, the shown in this video can also be used on the bottom of the strap. But still, for the bottom it is better to use leather that has good protection from moisture (sweat).
@@EmreM. My favorite is Conceria Walpier art. Buttero. This leather is impregnated with wax and passed through hot rollers. This procedure nice protects leather from sweat
I want to get into making my own straps. Takes way too long waiting for someone else to make them and they always come out wrong it seems. Where would i find those plastic templates and the tools? What kind of material do you use for your inserts? I'd REALLY love some help with this. Please and thank you
I wish you had a list of materials needed so i could try this. I have no idea what kind of thread to buy or leather to get. What kind of glue or anything. Please, help a brother out. My therapist says i need to put myself into something creative or i'll relapse
You can use any 1mm vegetable tanned leather. The tools are all listed in the video before using it, or see my last video ruclips.net/video/7hXl0YK8Nrw/видео.html, I show it on begeen At least you need a utility knife, a stitching chisel, any rubber hammer and good glue, such as Fiebing's Leathercraft Cement For best result, you can add wooden slicker, edge beveler and, maybe, edge kreaser Templates can be bought here www.etsy.com/listing/704229303/
thank you for the great tutorial boss! how many stitches per inch are your irons? or what do you recommend as far as pricking irons for watch straps? thank you again!
Hi awhile back you asked OKBRIDGE about your sewing machine not running correct, it was going forward when you had it in reverse and going backward when you had the lever in forward stitch. I am having same problem ,did you get it fixed and if you did what was wrong?
Hi there! What kind of leather was the third one? The first two you named in English, but I do not reay cyrill so could you please specify that as well? By the way, excellent video, will make my strap based on this video, thank you very much for it :-)
Hi. Great video. I saw on aliexpress that kind of edge creaser, and i am thinking about buying one. What is your experience with it? Is it good? And perhaps a link to where you bought yours. Thank you.
I like it. I am satisfied with the purchase. Controller purchased here aliexpress.ru/item/1005001514812697.html But nozzles ordered in another product item aliexpress.ru/item/4000961039287.html It turned out to be cheaper
hello friend great master class but.. please can you make a version when you're talking and explaining while working. also recommend some tools and leather types and sources. pepole will be willing to pay fir that kind of master class for beginners. russian or english preferable i would be interested. I've seen some udemy courses but i don't want them for now, as I'm more focused on watch straps.
Thanks for the comment. Perhaps I will make a video with talking while working closer to autumn. I need to prepare well for make this a video. Now I'm just making the video process of working on an order.
@@NovgorodskyLeatherCraft great work. I'm following your channel, so it will be cool. also i will try to start as is with this video. but as i don't have no tools or leather to start with.. i will try to understand the frist basic tools that i can get from AliExpress/ ebay then the leather that i will want to work with. I saw a strap of Stingray leather that i want to do for myself. I'm also interested to learn to make a leather nato. большое спасибо
Hey, I’m curious. With the holes for watch band & length. How do you know how long you need for wrists? Like if your watchband maybe fits 7 inch wrists. You extend it to make 8.5 inch wrist. This would be by just adding 2 inches to the length? & adding more holes?
The video starts by showing you how to calculate the strap length. No extra holes need to be made. If you count everything correctly, then only three holes are enough. I do five, simply because it looks nicer that way. If your wrist is 8.5 inches (216 mm), subtract the length of the watch (~ 44mm) from this value and divide it in half. This will be the length of the 12 o'clock side strap (86mm). The length of 6 o'clock side strap will be 86 + 45 = 131mm Punch the central hole at a distance of 86 mm from the watch and two more hole at a distance of 7-8 mm from it, one above, the other below.
However, can you tell me which company distributes them in Russia? I have a Spanish friend who has a company in Spain that sells Russian watches (it's called Amphibia Force) and imports two or three large packages from there to Barcelona every month. maybe he could buy it. Thank you.
Great video, but talking through the process or playing some music would've made the video much better. The ambient noise for over an hour is a bit much. Thank you for posting though.
In previous videos, I was asked not to add music :) In general, this video is not intended to be viewed in one go. Looked at the one part, performed it. Looked at the next part, etc.

Very nice work. Subscribed.
Um belo trabalho mostrando todos os detalhes desde a esolha do material até o acabamento final. 👍👋👋👋
20mm tapered 18mm?
not quite so. the narrowing occurs on the first 50mm from the watch, then the strap is straight 18mm
I miei complimenti ! lavoro impeccabile !
Grazie!

Hello. I'm just wondering, why are two different leathers always used on watch bands? Why can't the same leather be used in two layers?
I don't always use different ones. It depends on what kind of leather is used for the face. For example, the shown in this video can also be used on the bottom of the strap. But still, for the bottom it is better to use leather that has good protection from moisture (sweat).
@@NovgorodskyLeatherCraft thank you for the answer :). By the way, i haveond more question. 😂
Which leather type is more resistant for moisture?
@@EmreM. My favorite is Conceria Walpier art. Buttero. This leather is impregnated with wax and passed through hot rollers. This procedure nice protects leather from sweat
@@NovgorodskyLeatherCraft thank you so much😊
Hi I may have missed it but didn’t see how thick the inlay leather is ? Or is it the same as the outer layer 1
