Commonly used watchbands are divided into steel belts and belts, and there are also watchbands of other materials. As a watch manufacturer, we will try our best to meet the needs of customers. Today, let's talk about the maintenance tips for leather watchbands. There are many kinds of leather watchbands. We start with the classification of different leathers.
As one of the most commonly used materials in leather straps, cowhide is not a particularly valuable material, but it is very worthwhile for consumers to choose in terms of feel, softness, durability, and cost-effectiveness. The texture of the cowhide is fine, and it does not show excessive roughness. It has high availability. Whether it is a sports watch or a business watch, it can be used with both sports watches and business watches. unique design.
Sheepskin generally appears in women's watchband materials. In order to take care of girls' wrists, soft lambskin watchbands are used.
Lizard skin is a relatively precious watchband material. This material is often used in mid-to-high-end ladies' watches. The texture of lizard skin is as fine as sesame seeds, revealing a unique atmosphere of beauty and elegance. Compared with crocodile skin, it is closer to the wrist. Of course, the price and cost performance are also higher than that of crocodile skin.
This strap is actually the most durable and toughest watch strap. Cordless leather is actually the leather on the horse's buttocks. It is the most wear-resistant, densest, and toughest leather on the horse. If you want to quantify it, it is three or four times stronger than ordinary cowhide, but the comfort is slightly worse than that of sheepskin.
For those who love retro style, there is another very attractive feature of cordonette leather: "Can be raised". As the wearing time increases, the leather will slowly react with sweat, air, etc., showing a very beautiful color.
Ostrich skin generally appears less in mid-range or even high-end and is favored by high-end women's watches. Ostrich skin generally requires more complex processing procedures, so watch manufacturers rarely use ostrich skin to make watchbands in large quantities. However, because of its unique style, many high-end watches also use this material as a strap for their unique design, and most of them are used by high-end women's watches.
When it comes to crocodile skin, it's a Maserati in a car. If you want a high-end and complicated leather strap, then you will definitely choose this top-grade leather as the strap. Especially a small piece of skin on the chest and abdomen of the American alligator is the best.
It is easier to sweat in summer or during sports. If you usually wear a hand-washing face and wet the belt, long-term perspiration entrainment, dust, and dirt in the air adhere and corrode. When the leather strap is used for a long time, it will inevitably have an odor. So how to maintain the watchband?
First, the cortex, like human skin, needs to breathe. In general, maintaining ventilation can extend the life of the strap.
For example, the belt watch is not suitable for wearing too tight. In addition, in the process of taking off and wearing the belt watch, there is actually a process of pulling and friction. Usually, wear it naturally, don't take it off too much, and put it on. This will allow the strap to accompany you for a longer period of time.
Second, the belt should be removed in time if it is accidentally wet or rained, and immediately wipe it dry with a dry cloth and wring it out. Because the human body has room temperature, if you want to store it, you must air dry it naturally or apply leather oil on the belt, which has a protective effect on the belt. If it is a relatively expensive leather strap (such as crocodile skin, or ostrich skin), it is recommended to wear a belt watch in winter or when there is an air-conditioned room temperature.
Third, when the belt produces a sour smell, use a soft-bristled toothbrush dipped in some fragrant soap to quickly scrub the dirty place, and quickly rinse with water. Use a "pinch and release" method to squeeze out the lather. The process is best completed within 15 seconds. Then, dry it naturally or use a hair dryer at a distance of 15 cm (to prevent the belt from being scorched and deformed).
The above is the experience shared by watch manufacturer Giant Watch, I hope it can help you.
