The SE Type 1 is a 17mm khaki cotton webbing strap, similar to UK MoD post-war Def Stan 3 straps but made to our own construction method and pattern. The stainless steel hardware is held in place by a stitched and glued loop of material, with the cut ends doped to prevent fraying and to make the tail end easier to thread through the buckle.
The strap does not have pre-punched holes and the prong of the buckle can be pushed through the material to make holes in the right postion for comfortable fitting. If necessary an awl, large needle or other pointy thing can be used to make a pilot hole when wearing for the first time.
SE straps are individually numbered with a unique 3-digit serial number and year of manufacture.The first digit represents the strap type - so 1xx is a Type 1 strap.
The full Sumac Watches logo and the strap type reference are stamped on the inside, and the Sumac pheon and strap serial number are stamped on the outside.
There is an option to order the strap with internal markings only, which are not visible when worn.
The standard SE Type 1 strap is 265-270mm overall length (+/- 5mm) with the option to customise to your preferred length.
Custom options can be selected at checkout.
Please note that custom length straps will take 2-4 weeks to produce as they are made to order, and cannot be cancelled or returned. When ordering a custom length strap you must message us via the contact form to confirm required overal strap length.
SE straps are individually handmade - not in a factory or sweatshop - so there are minor variations between each strap, and the stitching and stamping may not be perfect, for example.
