As promised, here are the photos that were taken of my latest watch strap repair to go along with my behind-the-scenes video.
Admittedly, this repair job was deceptively technical and full of curveballs.
Sharpened some old skills and gained a few new ones as well.
Overall, I had a good time.
Real challenge though?
Every cut and every stitch
had to be exact down to the millimeter, otherwise the straps I made wouldn't fit back into the watch's original hardware.
Proud to say that not only was I able to stay within parameters, but I was also able to really push just how close I can hand-punch stitching holes from the edge, clocking in at just 3 mm.
The only way to get good, is by challenging yourself, right?
