Many of us know the Bund bracelet as the one worn by Paul Newman at Sebring on his now famous Rolex Daytona or even Steve McQueen on his Hanhart 417 chronograph. Excellent references, which in terms of cool and casual elegance give us lessons time and time again.
Redesigned in 2018 by JOSEPH BONNIE for a more elegant look when worn, it’s back in several combinations, like Brown Crocodile as seen here.
THE AMERICAN PLATE
The Bund strap is a two part set composed of a regular strap and what is commonly called an “American plate”.
Developed for the army, those watch straps were meant to avoid damage to the watch from excessive sweat, and also injuries caused by the direct contact of a burning or freezing case-back with the skin.
Added to the intrinsic qualities of this accessory are the specificities of our exceptional leathers, which are ever more resistant, presenting patterns that inspire us.
The proportions of our American plate have been redesigned and refined to remain very elegant.
The leathers have been chosen for their quality and their resistance with the passing of time.
Our sizes (case/buckle) are here as follows: 18/14mm – 19/16mm – 20/16mm – 22/18mm
The one-size-fits-all strap suits wrist diameters from 16,5cm to 21cm.
Our Bund strap is now available in brown crocodile leather, in our usual selection of lug widths.
Beautiful patina will develop over time on these straps, and it is not excluded that they may lose their shine in the distant future. Luckily, caring for such leather is very easy with “Reptan” cream to restore it to its full potential.
Leather tanned in France for straps entirely made by hand in our traditional workshop.
