We recently repaired a customer's watch.
This time, we performed an overhaul and replaced the strap.
During an overhaul, the exterior is also cleaned and made beautiful.
Even if the watch body is clean inside and out,
it would be a shame to attach a worn-out leather strap
to a watch you bought because you loved it.
We hear this often,
so we recommend replacing your strap as soon as it looks worn or damaged.
The impression of the strap alone can greatly change the impression of the watch itself.
You might think it's "just a leather strap," but considering the overall area of the watch,
a leather strap greatly influences the impression of the watch itself.
Depending on the shape, only dedicated straps may fit,
but in most cases, off-the-shelf leather straps can be attached.
If a leather strap is made of a high-quality material, the watch might appear more expensive,
but personally, even if you attach a high-quality leather strap, its durability doesn't necessarily improve,
and if it gets damaged, it still needs to be replaced just like any other leather strap.
In that case, it would be better to replace the leather strap regularly, just like maintaining the watch,
which would undoubtedly benefit the watch and lift your spirits.
At our store, we can suggest straps that fit the shape of your watch,
and we can even modify straps of slightly unusual shapes.
In such cases, we only charge for the strap itself, not for the modification work.
Whether your strap is a little damaged or you were charged an unexpected amount for replacement labor,
please feel free to consult us about strap replacement!
