Here are the buckles I have chosen for the new range of straps.
For the Diver I have gone for a 'butterfly' buckle, in polished steel. This buckle reminds me of 60's and 70's buckles for, well almost everything. You don't see it very often and it is very secure for your diver. looking at 20 & 22mm x 18mm
For the Driver I have gone for a 'Gate/Trap' style' and as before I have made a mock - up of the ATG logo position. It will probably be engraved in Charcoal.
This is the buckle I have chosen for the Pilot and the Military strap. It is a big solid piece of brushed steel. Looks very good on both straps. Tough and utility as it should for the particular designs.
here's the Military strap with the 'rubber' insert, I have specked a slightly more matt calf leather which will be a little softer on the wrist. Although the leather speced is very close to WWII mil specs I think for now a days it does not have to be so stiff.
Finally the pilot strap, this may be available in black and mid brown as well as this cool 'burgundy'.
NB: I originally was looking to use a very old type of buckle for this vintage style Pilot strap but after fitting it just seemed to be so big and it didn't fit the strap so well as the straight brushed buckle, without changing the strap design, the strap looks good on the straight brushed buckle don't you think?
Let me know by posting your comments below.
