Materials & Build
This strap is constructed from top-grain calf leather, chosen for its smooth grain and ability to hold vibrant dyes like our forest green and sunset pink. The interior features a hidden layer of Vectran weave, a high-strength material that prevents the leather from stretching or misshaping over years of use. The buckle is a solid stainless steel assembly with integrated magnets that click into place automatically. Because we use genuine animal hides, you should expect a brief break-in period of two to three days before the strap fully contours to your specific wrist shape.

FAQ
Is this strap waterproof for swimming?
No, this strap is made from genuine leather and is not intended for swimming or showering. While it can handle a light splash during hand washing, you should dry it immediately with a soft cloth. For water activities, we recommend switching to a silicone or nylon band to preserve the leather finish.
How does the magnetic buckle stay closed?
The modern buckle uses a dual-locking mechanism. Strong internal magnets pull the two sides together, while a mechanical clip ensures the strap does not slide apart if you snag it on clothing. It stays firmly on your wrist until you press the side release buttons to open the clasp.
Will the leather color change over time?
Yes, as with all genuine leather products, this strap will develop a patina. This means the color may darken slightly and the surface will become softer as it absorbs oils from your skin and reacts to sunlight. This is a sign of authenticity and adds character to your watch accessory.
Does it work with the Apple Watch Ultra and Ultra 2?
Yes, it works perfectly. You should select the 42/44/45/49mm size option. The steel connectors are designed to slide into the Ultra's titanium casing securely, though the connector finish is polished steel which provides a nice contrast to the matte titanium of the Ultra.
How do I clean the strap safely?
To clean your strap, wipe it down with a non-abrasive, lint-free cloth. If necessary, lightly dampen the cloth with fresh water. Do not use soaps, leather conditioners, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the specialized tanning process used for the Modern Sleek collection.
