It is now very popular to wear a leather strap, because it is soft, docile and comfortable, and it also avoids allergic reactions to the human body caused by the oozing of nickel metal like a stainless steel strap. Therefore, people who are particular about it prefer a leather strap.

The leather straps are also available in a variety of colors, including Crocodile, Lizard, Cow, and Ostrich. The most common is a cowhide strap. To be strong and durable, the leather strap is definitely not good than the metal strap. The life of a leather strap is 2-3 years, so maybe it is a "consumable". But one thing is certain. As long as it is normally worn and carefully maintained, it can greatly improve its service life. This is the same as wearing shoes.

Maintenance

Like other cortical things, the most taboo of the leather strap is water. When it is immersed in water for a long time, the leather strap will become hard and brittle immediately, including human sweat. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to wear a watch with a leather strap to swim (or do long-term contact with water), long-term sweat soaking, and make the strap moldy and odorous. If you are particularly passionate about sweating, it is not suitable for wearing a leather strap. In addition to the hot season, it is more suitable to wear leather straps, so many people have two straps of metal and leather, suitable for changing the skin in the cool, and replaced with metal in the summer. There are also more careful people who will take off the original imported watch strap, and usually use other domestically-made straps to replace them. These are all brilliant.

Long-term intense sun exposure will decolorize the surface of the leather strap and accelerate the aging of the cortex. Some chemical agents will also discolor or discolor the surface of the strap; while pulling too hard on the strap, often on the strap The fixed position is also prone to cracks. (The larger the bending rate of the strap, the easier it is to break.) Therefore, it is better to wear the strap and be careful.

A better strap, the two edges of the strap are sewn with thread; some of the lower gears are basically glued, the strap is wet with water (sweat) or mildew, which is the easiest to open. If it is found that there is open glue or cracks on the surface, it should be replaced immediately to prevent it from being lost.

The belt belt is hard and the leather strap is worn for a long time. In addition to the odor, "hardening" is also a common symptom. If the strap is often in a humid environment, it will accelerate its hardening speed. The sweat will also erode the cortex, causing the strap to deform, harden or even break, inexplicably causing the watch to be lost or broken. Therefore, in addition to the usual maintenance, it is absolutely necessary to not bend the strap when the strap is hardened, and to change the strap at the right time. Use a little money in exchange for an aesthetically pleasing appearance, and avoid unnecessary losses. If you do both, why not?

Do not wear the belt watch from time to time. If you have more than two watches, you can replace it best. The cortex needs to breathe. The ventilated environment can extend the life of the strap. Wearing different watches (belts) can not only reduce the risk of human damage, but also give the strap a full rest. In addition, the wearing of the belt watch itself is a process of constant wear and tear, if it is not everyday, it can naturally accompany you for a longer period of time.

Cleaning method

To clean the leather strap, use a damp, soft cloth dampened with “washing spirit” to wipe the surface of the strap, then quickly replace it with a cloth dampened with water, and then dry it in a cool place. General leather oil can be used for leather strap maintenance. It is best to wipe the strap clean every one or two months, and then use "Bilizhu" (an ordinary leather protectant) to do some cleaning.

Sweat damages the skin strap as much as possible. Try not to shorten the strap life very quickly when sweating. So besides not in the usual time, put it in a cool and ventilated place, and dry it with a toothbrush. Toothpaste cleans the inside of the belt. Wipe dry with a dry cloth immediately after a few rubs. Alternatively, wipe it with vinegar and gently rub it through the cloth several times.

However, the occurrence of the odor of the strap is the biggest problem for the belt wearer. When the strap produces an odor, use a toothbrush to apply some soapy water, quickly scrub the dirt, and wipe with a slightly damp cloth. To prevent soapy water from penetrating into the cortex, the whole process is best done in 20 seconds. In addition, consumers can also apply some leather oil on the strap. The leather oil has a protective effect on the watch, which can make the maintenance work more complete.

Can not be washed with water. If the watchband is often in a humid environment, it will accelerate its hardening speed. The sweat will also erode the cortex. It will deform, harden or even break. When it is not in the airy place, it should be placed in a cool and cool place with a odor. Toothbrush and toothpaste clean the inside of the belt and wipe it off quickly with a dry cloth.
