Inspired by Richelieu shoes, this leather band dresses your Apple Watch with timeless sophistication. A concentrated dose of French style, crafted for true connoisseurs.
Handmade in France from full-grain cowhide leather, the Richelieu is a discreet tribute to a certain idea of elegance. The kind that lasts. The kind that gets noticed without ever trying to stand out.
It evokes a familiar memory: the polished shoes of men we admired. Leather that was cared for, not replaced. An accessory you choose once and keep for a long time. Because it lasts. Because it fits perfectly. Because it just feels right.
It pairs naturally with a navy blazer, a double-breasted jacket, or a city coat. But it also knows how to stay discreet under rolled-up sleeves, on a Friday night out with friends.
Three carefully chosen, understated tones: Black, Cognac, and Red. Imagine the black—discreet and precise—slipped under a white shirt or a crewneck sweater. It never seeks attention, but it is always at home.
Cognac? That’s for gentler days. It goes with jeans, a wool jacket, or your favorite autumn sweater. It catches the light, develops a patina over time, and gains character with every outing.
And then there is red. A little bolder, but never flashy. Perfect with a black turtleneck, or that anthracite jacket you hadn't yet found a way to bring to life. Now you know.
This is not just another band.
This is a Richelieu.
Origin
The Richelieu band is handmade in France from full-grain cowhide leather. This is leather at its purest: uncorrected, untreated. It retains the natural marks of the animal hide: small scars, natural wrinkles, subtle shades, making each band unique. The tanning is vegetable-based, carried out without harsh chemicals. It is a slow but noble process, appreciated by enthusiasts, that respects and enhances the material. It also protects your skin by avoiding the risk of irritation or allergy against the wrist.
The leather develops a patina over time, gaining suppleness, depth, and personality. A Richelieu does not wear out—it writes its own story.

How should I care for my leather strap?
Over time, your leather strap will look worn and patinated (in a good way). Never apply aggressive or corrosive products, as it is a material in contact with the skin, so be cautious of allergies. Avoid immersing it as much as possible, and if it does get wet, let it dry near a radiator, never with a hairdryer. Learn more.
Can I go in the water with this leather strap?
Leather straps are treated to withstand everyday splashes like hand washing or rain. However, they should not be submerged, and it's best to avoid getting them wet. Soap, sea salt, or pool chlorine will damage the strap.
