Great leather

Cordovan is incredibly hardwearing. I normally not a leather strap in a year, but I only replaced the one on my Nomos because the stitching had disintegrated. I'm getting some more made at the moment, and they turn up on ebay from time to time in various ...

Love it

What exactly is the problem with the bronze case? Is it just a coating? Do you have a picture of the scratches, would love to learn more about it, thanks. Meislergeisler
