Our products are almost exclusively manufactured in Germany. The only exceptions are our NATO straps, which we have to source from Hong Kong, as we have not yet been able to find suitable German producers.

The sizes of our bands are described with two numbers. The front number corresponds to the bridge width (see FAQ bridge width), the back number indicates the width of the band at the closing end.

Bridge width is another term for bandwidth. This refers to the width of the band at the lug , i.e. the band side directly on the watch. It is particularly important because not every width fits every watch. The information is in millimeters. The best way to find out your width is to measure your original band.

The length "M" is our standard size , this fits approx. 90% of our customers and corresponds to 19.6 cm excluding the watch/AppleWatch.

In the future, we would still like to offer more and more straps in the lengths "S" (17.6 cm exclusive of the watch) and "XL" (21.6 cm exclusive of the watch). Some bands are therefore already available to you!

You can find an example here .

If the band you want is not available in the right length, it is no problem to have the band made for you in “S” or “XL”. This costs an additional charge of + €59 and takes 10 - 12 weeks . But it's worth it, I promise!

We have the option of ordering custom-made items .

The price varies depending on the effort involved. Since the band is made specifically for you, delivery can take up to 10 to 12 weeks .

Watch leather straps may vary and appear different due to their nature as genuine leather products. This is due to several factors that affect the appearance and texture of the leather. Here are some reasons why watch leather straps may look different:

1) Animal species and origin: The leather for watch straps comes from various animal species such as cattle, calfskin, pigs, sheep or exotic animals such as crocodiles or lizards. Each species of animal has different skin structures, patterns and density, resulting in different textures.

2) Tanning and processing: The way the leather is tanned and processed affects its color and texture. There are different tanning methods such as vegetable tanning and chrome tanning that affect the final product.

3) Scars and Marks: The animal's life leaves scars, wrinkles and natural marks on the skin. These properties are unique to each piece of leather and give each bracelet its individual character.

4) Dyes and Finish: Leather bracelets can be dyed in different colors. The type of dye and the type of finish determine the final shade and shine of the leather.

5) Environmental Conditions: The environmental conditions in which the animal has lived can also affect the quality of the skin. For example, temperature changes, insect bites or scratches can affect the appearance of the leather.

6) Handmade: Our leather bracelets are manufactured by hand, which can lead to slight differences in workmanship and design. This gives each bracelet a personal touch.

Overall, these differences are part of the charm of leather products, especially Manufakturwek watch leather straps. They make every watch leather strap unique and give it a natural and authentic character. Customers appreciate these variations and the fact that they are holding a unique piece that only becomes more beautiful over time
