Beerwah on the Sunshine Coast QLD is home to Australia Zoo and the Glass House Mountains. So we decided to name our exotic straps after this famous suburb.
Skin is small scale from underbelly, hind leg, hips, flanks.
Buckle or Basic deploymant clasp – fit by flipping up the clip and placing pin into desired adjustment hole on strap (see video below for more details).
2mm buckle/clasp prong slot fitted to both buckle and clasp strap.
Note: as of February 2024 clasp strap and buckle strap will have buckle prong. Not needed for clasp that is fitted but is good if you wanted to fit your brand name clasp that utiilise the buckle prong as some brand name clasps do. Basically the clasp option will have a small slot in middle of lug that is not used for this particular clasp and cannot be seen when fastened.
Totally unique, each of our genuine American alligator leather straps has a slightly different scale and pattern. Stand out from the crowd. Looks beautiful on any type of watch.
Choice of buckle or clasp.
Photos are a guide only. Depending on batch, the colour, grain and gloss may be slightly different with every individual strap.

Clasp is a generic style clasp to get you started. The best version of the cheaper clasps available and will be ok for most people unless you are used to wearing a $3,000 Rolex clasp. Again, it’s the best i can do at this price level – Rob shop manager.
An upgraded clasp is available in shop. Add to cart by visiting Hardware after you have chosen strap.
