Di-Modell watch straps 

premium quality, hand-crafted in Germany

 

 

Di-Modell's mottos are "Perfection is our passion" and "Perfection in Detail."  Their watch straps live up to both.

 

Di-Modell watch straps are hand-crafted in Germany.  The "Deluxe Collection" of Di-Modell watch straps include additional features that set them apart from,  and above the watch straps made by other manufacturers - a patented Aero-Lining and a nifty loop anchor that's also patented by Di-Modell.

 

These innovative designs and exceptional hand-craftsmanship make Di-Modell watch straps a superb value and offer you a much better buy than other manufacturers' watch straps so often seen and "over-described" on many websites.

 

On their website Di-Modell has an excellent illustrated page detailing the construction of their leather watch straps including those in their "Deluxe Collection" which include the patented Aero lining and loop anchor.

 

I keep my order pages up to date with what I have in stock, so you can order with confidence.

Choice of buckles -  polished stainless steel or yellow gold-plated in 16 mm and 18 mm . matt/brushed is available in 16, 18 and 20 mm stainless. black PVD is available in 18 mm only. all are nickle-free stainless steel  - - please scroll to the bottom of the page for details

Inventory Closeout

 

In September there was a dramatic increase in suggested retail prices (srp) and dealer prices in the U.S.  for  Di-Modell watch straps

 

Some prices more than doubled.  For example the new  srp for the Chronissimo is $165.95,  There have been similiar increases for other models - the Rallye $70.95,   the Bali  $62.95 and the Carbonio Sport  $78.95.

 

The prices on this web page  were based  on the old suggested retail  and dealer prices and are a lot lower that they would be if they were based on the new prices because I stocked these watch straps before the September increases.

 

I'm closing out my current inventory at these bargain prices.  There will be no better time to buy one of these superb Di-Modell watch straps

 

To get these bargain prices you must use the links in this web page.  These prices are only applicable to watch straps that are in stock as listed on my order pages.

"I really like the Di-Modell Carbon Sport. They're exactly what I need at a great price. The high quality is evident, even down to the little "keeper" for the loop. The waterproof feature is terrific for hiking or any outdoor activity.

 

The band looks like a million dollars on my Fortis. It's very satisfying to find exactly what I was looking for at a great price." -- Paul C., Boulder, CO

Di-Modell

 Ikarus

 

A vintage style style watch strap made from absolutely gorgeous smooth calfskin with contrast stitching.  The rivets are a part of the design, they don't unscrew, so you don't have to worry about them coming unscrewed.

 

A new feature of the Ikarus is its natural rubber lining.  Di-Modell's catalogue describes it as a "caoutchouc lining."   I had to look up "caoutchouc" in my Funk and Wagnalls - and sure enough, it is the natural rubber made from latex collected from rubber trees and plants.

 

The Ikarus is @ 75 mm x 115 mm and is over 5.5 mm at the lugs,  about 6.5 if you count the rivets.

 

Buckle size  is 18 mm the 20 mm Ikarus

 

and 20 mm for the 22 mm Ikarus.
