Alligator leather straps are one of the most popular and unique looks for Rolex wearer’s today. When Everest set out to create a leather strap line, we knew we had to have an Alligator embossed leather strap that would impress even the most discerning watch enthusiasts. Everest’s leather straps are simply made by the best artisans of leather straps in the world. The material choices and artisan construction of our alligator straps is truly second to none.

When it comes to quality, be it with either our rubber or leather straps it is always our first priority.

Now that we have simply the best leather and the best sections of those hides, it is important to focus on the construction of the strap itself. Some aspects of our designs are much harder to be made than others. Our straps are all cut by hand and stitched by hand. One aspect that is done to all of our straps is a finished edge. This edge finishing is not common due to it being incredibly labor intensive, timely and costly. Since this strap will be with you for a very long time this process will extend the life of the strap and extends the beauty of it also. Fine leather manufacture’s such as Gucci, Hermes, and the like also exclusively use this technique to finish all of their leather goods. The process starts with the edge of the leather being precisely cut smooth to result in a perfect flat edge. Then the straps’ layers are glues including the padding and lining.

Now the strap is reviewed and any excess material such as glue is removed and the strap is cleaned once before the unique leather painting process begins. Alligator embossed straps require multiple layers of the edge finishing paint. Between each layer a hot edge is applied to the dye to clean it and seal it to the leather. To seal the strap fully and protect it from the elements, a layer of wax is applied and then also heated using a very hot edge to ensure that material is adhered to the strap perfectly. Finally, any stitching or unique elements to the strap are finalized. All in all, this process must all be done by hand by our artisan manufactures. We are one of the last leather goods makers in the world to use such extreme techniques to produce our alligator embossed leather straps.
