    Artem Straps - any owners?

    Thinking of buying an Artem sailcloth strap for an inbound watch. Pricing is on the higher end but looks nice quality and I was hoping some members here may have heard of this company and tried their straps before?

    I had one of the sailcloth straps on a Nomos.In my option well worth the money ,even more so when paired with their deployant clasp.

    I have an Artem strap and love it. Although don’t have a watch for it right now. It looked brilliant on this Sinn while I had it.

    I've had two. One replaced the first which was frayed on arrival and the replacement has snapped!

    V poor quality for the price.

    I know people rave about them but imo they're not great quality.
    I bought one new from AUS and within a day of wear the top layer had peeled open as the sailcloth is basically only a "topper" and stretched as far as it will go with no additional fabric used to stitch it down properly, etc.

    A replacement was sent but I sold both on immediately and bought one of the new matte BP sailcloths instead

    Just to reiterate the responses of others. Been a disappointing experience.

    Mine has had minimal use in its short life. Never softened up and has now split.
