If like me you aren't a leather strap guy perhaps this strap will change your mind, it did for me. The Fluco Horween Shell Cordovan Leather is smooth, pliable, tough and durable. It's thin and low profile and extremely comfortable on the wrist and outstanding quality.

Nice advert
Thanks for the great review! Being a strap guy primarily, a shell cordovan is a strap I would like to have, but have not owned yet (mostly due to expense). Thank you for really taking the time to make honest, in-depth reviews.
This looks amazing! I'll have to look into this, I'm glad a brand has finally made an affordable Horween strap.
Man, that really works with that Hamilton. Perfect combination.
Always liked your presentation style. Buy loving the new video and audio quality lately as well.
I'd love this strap, got exactly the same watch and never thought I'd take the steel bracelet off but this would definitely persuade me
I also live in Florida, so the knowledge that you have found a leather strap that works for you in this climate will lead me to the seller to pick up one for myself......providing I don’t just happen to win one 😉. I really enjoy your reviews, please keep up the great work.
Hello, thanks for the review. It’s always good to find different straps, this appears to be a really nice strap. Thanks for all you do with the videos and the opportunity to own a wonderful looking strap.
Nice video Guy. What a great looking strap, and Holbens are excellent to deal with.
I've had this exact model of strap from Fluco (in brown) for nearly three years, and it looks now as it did after about a month of wear. Incredibly durable, and seems to fit better as time goes on.
Any update on how it's been four years after this review? Looking into a Fluco Horween Shell Cordovan.
@@ivanmejia6843 It's still basically perfect. It's a little more scuffed right now, but shell cordovan doesn't seem to stretch or crack like other animal hide straps do. I probably won't ever buy a "leather" strap that isn't shell cordovan.
I’m a Fluco guy too ☺️ I’m salivating over that strap for my new watch!
Thanks for the review; I've been considering a more quality leather for my Hamilton. Looks extremely comfortable.
Thanks for the strap review. Would love to give it a try!
I live in the Florida Keys so I know what you're talkin about our heat in South Florida. I have a 46 mm Seiko with a silicone rubber strap that I don't like to wear outdoors in the heat. I have a 7 1/2 inch wrist but I could use the leather strap for my wife's watch. Thank you.
Shell Cordovan is probably the nicest leather out there
I have a Colareb strap from Holbens. Love it. I also love White's boots and someday hope to get a pair in the Shell Cordovan. In the meantime, you giveway would hold me over until I can save the money to buy one. Great job on the review.
It should fit my slim wrist like a glove! Nice review!
Man, I would love to put this on any of my dress watches! I think this may be the same strap that Nomos uses on their watches, awsome!
Hi Guy: Great review! I've got the same model Hamilton so it's great to see how the strap will look on my watch if I win!
I have that exact watch and have been looking for a great low-profile leather strap! I’d love to have it!
I like it for my flighty, I think it will fit.
Nice review Guy, thank You for sharing.
Thanks for the give-away Guy. I'd like to put the strap on my Hamilton Khaki Field, too.
Great review on an amazing looking strap. I have been looking for a nice all black strap for my Damasko DA36. I believe this strap would be perfect, so I would be proud to show it off. Thanks and keep up the good work...
I’d be interested in winning it. Thank you for offering up this second strap to a lucky winner!
Enjoyed your vid. Keep it up 👍👍👍
This strap looks quality! I would love to rock this strap! cool review!
Thanks for watching.
Would be awesome to be picked , I have a 6.5” wrist so the layout would fit nicely !
Great review again Guy :-)
Love it! That looks almost identical to the shell cordovan straps nomos sells, but for about half the price!
Yeah guy I live in Orlando so I hundred percent get it. My black Bay Steel came on a beautiful strap you know, and I try to wear it but within an hour im feeling like I'm ruining it from the inside out. So I've been looking at holbens quite a lot lately.. great video man beautiful strap🤟
Hi Guy, I would love this strap, I am actually wearing my Hamilton that I bought because of your channel. This would look incredible.
Great review!
Seems like an awesome strap,I like it!...
I have been impressed by other Fluco straps and would love a chance to check out the Shell Cordovan version.
Great review as always Guy, btw that Hamilton is an absolute strap monster! I'd love to try that strap on my Seiko sarbs (033 and 065).
This strap will look good on my classic Casio Edifice EF503 .
Count me in! Would fit my incoming boldr expedition perfectly! 😃
Thanks for the review, I have a 6.25" wrist so the strap size will be great. Hope to win!
I'm a huge fan of leather straps and would love to try out a Fluco
Cheers Guy
I have a beautiful brown shell cordovan strap and would love to add this black one to the collection.
I've seen Shell Cordovan on some strap websites and was wondering about it, so thanks for making this video!
If I win the strap, I will probably try it on a bunch of my watches to see where it works best, but I'm hoping it will work well with my late dad's Fortis Trueline which currently has no strap.
I just got a khaki field auto 38mm like 2 weeks ago on the metal braclet and getting a black leather strap for it was on my to-do's from day one, i hope this is the one :D
There’s no adapter. Just install the strap between the springbars.
i love strap. I would like to hwin.
Thanks for the content guy
It's the same strap NOMOS is using for the Tangente models. I like it a lot too.
Love Holbens, bought a Hadley Roma from them and it is my favorite strap! Great video! Hope I win :)
Count me in, have been comtemplating on buying either a Fluco or Di-modell strap.
I've had three of these, on an IWC Vintage Aquatimer, Zenith VPH El Primero, and Rolex Explorer 2. Absolutely agree that these straps are the best value for the money. I actually prefer these over $200-250 alligator bands from premium manufacturers like Camille.
I've tried few brands including this, and out of all of them, Colareb was the best. In terms of comfortable, definitely a solid 10 and very well made. It's on the expensive side, but that you get what you pay for.
Nice review. That extra strap would look great on my sarb033!
Man that will work for my sons SNK he may only be 8 but he already has a good watch collection going on Oris Snk Bolivia Orient ect
Beauty! Especially with the Khaki. Would love to win!
That strap would be real nice with my zodiac manta ray, currently on a nato.
I'd love one of these Guy, it'll also look good on my Hamilton Khaki. Thanks for video & the give away :)
Oh, man, I am awaiting on my new Egard Poseidon Filigree Steel watch and that one comes with a bracelet and a NATO. But, since it is an very elegant, fully engraved watch I will definitely need a leather strap. Like this one...
Great strap! Would love it
I enjoyed the review and think this strap would look great on my Hamilton Khaki King, so I am interested in winning it!
Good luck!
I've been looking around for a strap, and I also tend to lean on black straps for some reason. I've been trying to mix it up every now and then, but I seem to just end up with more black straps :))) so yes, I would love to win and get yet another black watch strap
In for the band, love shell.
Take a look at Eulit perlon straps on Holben's site, particularly the Palma strap for the Hamilton Khaki. It is perfect for hot and humid weather, and looks fantastic on the wrist.
Not a lot of strap reviews. Thanks for posting.
I bet this strap will work a treat on my Seiko SARB035.
Hey Guy! I would never have thought to put a strap on my Hamilton Khaki Field but it looks great. Also I have a 6 1/2” wrist. I’d be happy if you sent it to me! Great channel!
Nice strap. I, like you, prefer bracelets, and usually swap out straps for bracelets when I can. Good video, good channel. Mark
Where is on-wrist shot?
Great review - I really appreciate you letting us know about this value and a good review of a shell cordovan strap - I've been interested in SC, but haven't seen one up close. I think this would look great on an Irish I have and the mixed length pieces would be perfect for my 7" wrist. I would definitely be interested to be entered to win this. Thank you!
Wayne
Lol. I meant Oris, not "Irish".
Holben's is great! Have been ordering from them for years. Great selection, good prices and fast shipping!
Thanks buddy.
I have the same wrist size as yours, would love to try them, cheers.
Hi Guy,greetings from the UK,strap would look great on my Sarb033 so please count me in.
Hi. I’ve been a subscriber for about 6 months and you do a great job. We both have a lot in common. I have a 6 3/4” wrist too. I was introduced to Horween leather with my Nomos watch. And I fit in the same category you do, I really need a combination of a short, and a regular length. The way my wrist is designed I actually need the buckle side to be the regular length size and need the tip side to be the short length otherwise the buckle is almost on the side of my wrist which is uncomfortable and looks awful. Now many companies make shorts anymore and the cost to buy two straps is a little steep! I sure hope I win as you are not only reviewing what I think is the best understated strap made, but since I have a smaller wrist, I also wear smaller thinner case watches so they look normal on my wrist. For people who have never tried horween...all it takes is one time and you’re hooked! I wonder if there are more guys like us and Fluco would make a small batch in 18mm, 19mm, and 20mm. They could sell them as a mix and match, as ideally you want the buckle in the center of the wrist. Anyway, good luck to the winner...as you won’t be disappointed. I highly recommend horween...it’s like the way straps should be made. I wonder if you stay in touch with Fluco if you would propose this idea to them as I’m sure there are also some folks that need a shorter buckle side with a longer tip size. I’m just hoping that’s how your wrist is designed, as I really need that long buckle side length. Either way, thanks for what you do in the watch community. Your videos are clear and useful! Wish you continued RUclips success!
Rich Winslow you have won Rich. Email me at justbluefish@gmail.com for details.

New to your channel and like the honest reviews. I do own one Fluco strap but it isn't a Horween leather one.
But they say it's horween shell cordaven
thats a great lil strap.....count me in for the giveaway!!
Looks great in the Hamilton Khaki, grey review! Count me in for the giveaway!
Fluco makes straps for Nomos! Their quality is really great for the money.
Been looking for a nice strap for my Tudor. Would buy one if I don't win this 😀✌
Love to try a comfortable leather strap. Never really have found one.
Thanks for watching good luck.
try not to get the padded stuff.
Nice strap, looks great on that Hamilton, maybe you could throw that in as well!!! ok, maybe not. it was worth a try
I would love to win this strap & I have the same issue of needing 1/2 of the long & 1/2 of the short. Also thanks for the recommendation of Exquisite Timepieces as I spend some time in Naples a few times a year & Nick showed me around.
We both have that odd wrist size apparently, and need a half and half strap. Good luck Winning this one, and glad you made it to Exquisite it’s a great place.
Sorry for the double comments...the first one froze and I just saw the spinning wheel of death for about 3 minutes, and decided to rewrite it today only to see my previous comment. Please don’t let that sku your decision as I only want to do what’s fair and have one entry into the contest. Thanks, Rich
Spiffy. Looks good.
Would be great if I could pair this with a dress watch :)
Sweet strap
I would love to win this strap, I think it would look great on my Seiko Presage Cocktail time.
Good luck!
I would love to win the strap! It would look great on my SARB065!
Nice strap, it would be perfect on my junghans max bill ;)
Also check out Rios shell cordovan I'm pretty happy with mine and they usually sell $50-$60. I dont think it is Horween though.
Thanks Guy. Very timely video for me. I am very much a bracelet guy normally. However, with fall arriving quicky here in Chicago, I've been contemplating a leather strap to change things up a bit. I've never had much luck or longevity with any leather strap, and would love to give this one a go. Hope you have an awesome weekend.
Thanks buddy you have a good one too.
in my opinion, nowadays Fluco is the best watch strap you can buy.
Thanks for doing this raffle! I have been wanting to pick up a Cordoven Strap, especially one in Black.
Good luck!
I would love to have this strap and put it on my khaki field 38
Ardeshir Gilani lol someone else commented that too. I guess it would
Nice straps
I would love to win this strap, would look absolutely gorgeous on my sarb035 :)
THX Guys! Keep up the good work. I understand...I'm on the other side of the state....and it's hot and humid as heck!!
It sucks!!!!
Nice review! Please include me in your giveaway; have the same watch (love it) and that strap looks perfect. Also have a 6.75" wrist. Thanks for what you do; love the channel.
Great review, I own a couple of Fluco straps and you're right they rock!
Thanks, Guy, for the review! Looks awesome!
Thanks Ray, you want to try to win?
JustBlueFish Watch Reviews yes, I would love to. Would the strap fit on a 6.5 in wrist?
Yeah should fit fine.
JustBlueFish Watch Reviews awesome! Thanks and good luck to everyone! :)
I would love to win the strap! It would fit perfectly on my 6 inch wrist.
I enjoyed the review and really like the looks of that strap.
Thanks Jim, are you in to win?
I would love to win this! I can put it on my khaki field mechanical
"Or you could win this strap that I frankenstein'd and probably won't fit you right."

I've got my experience of Horween Shell Cordovan from Nomos and I would agree it's a material of high quality, relatively robust and versatile in style.
