Spitfire

NOTE: You will be prompted for more details when you add your strap to the cart.

Your new favourite strap ? Possibly, it certainly is mine !

I have come up with this completely new design for a great GGB strap which I am proud to show you! The strap is adjustable in both wrist size fit and lug-to-lug size of any chosen watch. 

Designed and manufactured from the ground up, this strap features hardware which is unique to GGB and has been made specifically for my strap designs.

Features:

A Tri slot main buckle (engravable as like the Hop-Up buckles) and a smaller Tri loop allowing the straps length to be adjusted for changes in wrist size but also changing from one watch to another as this strap allows you to adjust for different lug to lugs easily. This elimianates the bunching up of webbing under the watch head when larger or smaller watches are fitted to a GGB.

The strap is still made to your wrist size but now with extra flex built in it could potentially be adjusted for over a wet or flight suit or ski jacket for example. Both Tri buckle and Tri loop have a curve in them to follow the curve of your wrist. 

The touch and close is kept short and once attached to the wrist the metal loop slides over the tail end to securely hold it down. The metal loop is a snug fit and does require some dexterity but the strap also come with a super soft black silicone keeper too.  As with most GGB straps, your watch is attached between two keepers and sits on a single ply of nylon webbing. This means that in the event of one spring bar failing the watch head will still be attached to the stap and not lost. 

I am really chuffed to bits with this strap and have high hopes for it doing well. It looks the business in my opinion with its multiple piece unique hardware and is going to suit many tool watches, Sinn, Bremonts, Bell & Ross, Speedmasters etc. With six colour options to choose from there is something to suit every taste, hopefully one of yours too :-)  

I would certainly recommend thinking of this strap for wrists of around 7 inches and above. I can make to smaller wrist sizes, however you may lose the adjust-ability the smaller your wrist.  Spitfire is avialable in the colours options as shown. 

There are many options in the Hop-Up gallery for 'off the peg' engraving, files already good to go. You dont have to have an engraved buckle and the option for no engraving or engraving ready to go are in the dropdown menu. If you have your own idea for a design or text then please ask prior to purchase so I can double check I can engrave it on the buckle. 

Spitfire strap comes to you in its own box as shown. 

VERY IMPORTANT- Spitfire is designed to have a small amount of closure at the velcros, this is to allow more flex in adjustment. DO NOT wear the strap without using either the steel slide loop or the silicone keeper provided. 

NOTES ON THE SPITFIRE BUCKLE: My laser can do extremely fine work but please remember that I have only around 9 x 26 mm to play with. ​If you are thinking of ​having a ​​custom ​design engraved, think of designs that will work best in the landscape orientation. Price of Spitfire strap includes engraving and any design work I may have to do. Both the standard loop, Spitfire hardware and Hop-up buckles are manufactured here in the UK.
