Description
The ABP Concept **Classic “Essential” Ostrich Leather strap** embodies the perfect balance between refined exoticism and French artisanal craftsmanship. Designed to elegantly complement Apple Watches, this strap captivates with both its distinctive aesthetic and its high-end finishes.
Material & Texture
Genuine ostrich leather reveals its distinctive grain — natural dots (“plumetis”) — offering a unique visual and tactile texture. Depending on the chosen finish, either matte or metallic, this strap captures light differently, creating subtle and personalized effects. The lining, made of classic calf leather, ensures optimal wearing comfort, avoiding any unpleasant stiffness and respecting the skin.
Design & Finishes
- Domed thickness of **4.5 mm at the lug**, ensuring a beautiful visual presence without weighing down the wrist.
- **Tone-on-tone** stitching, discreet and elegant, which highlights the material without overpowering it.
- Wide choice of colors: matte tanning (burgundy, green, red, gold brown, light brown, beige) for a more understated effect; metallic tanning (dark blue, khaki, lilac) for a bold touch.
Fit, Comfort & Compatibility
Available in three lengths, to fit a wide range of wrist sizes, this strap ensures comfortable wear, even with daily use. The Apple Watch-type adapter (insert) allows for precise attachment to recent Apple Watch models. Whether for professional use or to add a touch of character to your watch, it perfectly fulfills its purpose.
Craftsmanship & Origin
Manufactured in Paris by l’Atelier du Bracelet Parisien (ABP Concept), this strap is an artisanal “Made in France” product. The company, certified **Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant** (Living Heritage Company), employs traditional methods to select, work, and finish its exotic leathers. Although compatible with Apple Watch, this strap is not an official Apple creation, but its dedicated adapter guarantees compatibility.
