The resemblance to the Swiss cake rolls is uncanny. Same color, same springyness, same texture on the sued side of the strap. The pics on the Wood & Faulk site make it look like it’s going to be stiffer, and maybe they changed the leather they were using on these, but this leather is so soft you can twist it into a corkscrew with no problem (as seen below).
Double stitching of cream thread where the strap keepers attach is a dead on detail. Tag says “Wear unforgivably to properly break-in” but it’s already there. No break-in time needed whatsoever. It’s so soft, one might be afraid to wear it while doing dishes or washing hands… at first.
A total splurge at $60, it costs twice as much as a standard Timex Weekender that you’d get at Target. Maybe something to keep in mind for Father’s Day coming up. Made in the USA, limited stock, 20mm wide and 10.75″ long. They’re a small outfit and their leather goods are made to order, so allow 10 – 14 days for delivery.
Plus a restock (no sale) of a favorite USA assembled dive watch.
