    New French Calfskin Strap for my Heuer 2447D

    Just made a new strap for my Vintage Heuer 2447D. It came on the Rallye style strap which I believe may be the vintage Heuer strap with original buckle. Im not a huge fan of such straps and think it'll look better on French calfskin, so made a new one! Black with beige stitching. I'll get more pics up once I've put it on the watch. I've had to send the watch off for a service as the chrono hand is not resetting correctly

    Let me know what you think!

    I can see it now (using Safari), looks very nice indeed. I like the original rally straps and have quite a few modern leather replicas on my various Heuers (and one Grand Seiko!).

    Great news! Wondered what happened there. Glad they're working again. Oh yes I mean they're very much suited to that vintage chronos but I just prefer the clean calfskin style

    Watch strap looks great, not sure it works with the watch you mention though.

    Thanks guys. Sure, here it is. I haven't put the strap on it yet as it's being serviced for that chrono hand at six not resetting correctly

    Anyone know why I can only see the sticky thread in this forum? Is it because I have a low post count?
