Classic Leather Apple Watch Band - Olmo Minerva
The Classic Leather Apple Watch Band is made from Olmo Minerva imported Italian leather that will age absolutely beautifuly over time. The Minerva leather is a smooth, full-grain leather that gets richer, darker and even develops a slight sheen as it patinas.
The classic design features a machine stitch with your choice of thread that compliments your leather color choice perfectly. The padded interior gives the band an elegant shape toward the watch face, and gets thinner and more flexible toward the tip, making it easy to put on and take off. There are 2 watch band loops to aid in keeping your watch band together that are connected using antique brass leather staples for durability.
Note: Connector and buckle colors currently available in Black and Silver. Choose the hardware that best compliments your watch finish. They are easily removable if you'd like to replace them with a third party connector that matches your exact watch finish. The band sizes (S/M & M/L) are based on the original Apple Watch Band sizing - select the size band your watch came with.

Care Suggestions
Saddle soap is recommended for cleaning dirty leather. We recommend Fiebing's.
Leather balm is recommended for conditioning your leather every so often. Leather was skin afterall, so it needs hydrating after a while. We recommend using a leather balm every couple of months to rehydrate and remove any scratches and scuffs. Our leather balm of choice is Smith's Leather Balm.

Overall I love my new band. A couple of things of why I am not giving this a five star. One reason is I didn’t receive my order until today. Which is 16 1/2 weeks after I purchased it. Which I understand there is a lead time of 8+ weeks on the website. My gripe is that I emailed twice with no response so I had no idea if I was getting my band or not. The second reason is I didn’t get the signature whiskey glass logo on my band. Which I’m super bummed about. Anyway overall great quality and I love my watch band just a few minor issues. Thanks again!
