We are thrilled to share that REM Straps has been featured in the April 2026 issue of WatchTime Magazine! In a deep-dive feature titled "Spotlight: Leather Watch Straps," Martin Green explores why a strap is so much more than just an accessory. Comparing them to car tires, the article highlights how a high-quality, handcrafted strap is the ultimate "performance upgrade" for your timepiece—capable of transforming the look and feel of a watch entirely.
The article takes readers on a journey through the meticulous craftsmanship behind premium leatherwork—from the traditional saddle stitching and "rembordé" edges to the complex selection of hides. We are especially proud to be highlighted in the "Laser Sharp" section of the feature.
As the article concludes: "Buying a strap is almost always less expensive than buying another watch." We couldn't agree more! A new strap isn't just a change of clothes for your watch; it's a way to rediscover its character and express your own.
A huge thank you to the team at WatchTime for the feature and for recognizing the passion we pour into every stitch (and laser beam) here in Sweden.
The article is only published in the print version but WatchTime has another feature of us online if you like to read more.
