Today we received 20 strap samples for our H2O ORCA series. The leather was purchased by myself in Hamburg, Germany, after more than 4 hours of touching hundreds or even thousands of different calf skins. Fortunately the biggest leather skin wholesaler is just 50 km away from our office and touching the leather makes a big difference instead of just comparing images. Unfortunately the stud is not as I was planning. It should have been a more round vintage version, stamped wave and etched to look at least a 100 years old. We are far away from this goal. Anyway, this might get changed if we should decide to go with a stud attached version. Two leather skins - the dark brown vintage/used leather strap and the light brown leather strap - can´t be used as a standard strap as their skins were way too small! But as we are thinking about an incentive for returning customers from the H2O Kalmar pre-order they might go into production as well. Let´s show the straps!
