RH01 Rustling is a handmade Italian nubuck leather watch strap from the Rustic Heritage Series, built with an organic, time-worn character, soft texture, and understated vintage presence.
Crafted from premium Italian nubuck leather selected for its velvety surface, natural depth, and tonal variation, the RH01 Rustling model has a warm yellow tone with a rustic, naturally expressive feel. Its soft surface gives the strap texture, character, and a broken-in presence without looking overly processed.
Each strap is made to order in the Thomas Artisan Straps workshop in Sitges, Spain. The leather is individually cut, shaped, stitched, and finished by hand, giving every piece its own natural variation in tone, texture, and surface character.
The RH01 Rustling works especially well with tool watches, dive watches, field watches, pilot watches, vintage-inspired watches, and other fine mechanical watches that benefit from a rustic leather strap with warmth and character.
