The bund strap was originally designed for German pilots during World War II — a protective leather pad placed under the watch case to shield the wrist from extreme heat and cold. Today it lives on as one of the most distinctive vintage watch accessories a collector can own.

The Style I bund pad features a classic flat construction with four strap slots — two at each end — allowing your watch strap to pass through cleanly for a secure, traditional fit. Also commonly known as a leather cuff or watch cuff.

Handcrafted by Cozy Handmade from full grain vegetable-tanned Italian leather, pair it with any of our 2-piece or single-pass watch straps to give your watch an instant vintage character that stands out.

Materials

Cut from full grain vegetable-tanned Italian leather, sourced from a Consorzio-affiliated tannery in Tuscany. Each hide carries its own natural surface character — and over time, the leather softens and develops a rich personal patina, creating a piece with a look that is uniquely yours.

Unique Leather Variation

Every piece of full grain leather carries its own natural character, and because each hide is hand-dyed individually, no two pieces are ever identical. Your Cozy Handmade bund pad is one of a kind, with subtle variations in colour intensity, grain, and texture that make it entirely yours.

Care Information

As long as the leather does not expose to harsh elements such as prolonged exposure to heat and water, you can care for it as little as once every 6 to 12 months. Refer to leather care page for more info.

Additional Notes

Bund pads add thickness to the watch strap, which can cause it to wear approximately 1 hole shorter. We recommend ordering a strap size larger than usual to ensure a comfortable fit.
