24mm Baseball Glove

Up for sale is an all handmade 24mm Baseball Glove Watch Strap, made by me (Mott Straps). The glove used for this strap was an autograph Mike Schmidt baseball glove.  Schmidt played third base for his entire 18 year career for the Philadelphia Phillies.  He was a 3 time NL MVP, 12 time All Star, and won the Gold Glove 10 times.  He was known for his power hitting and his strong defense.  He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1995 and is considered by most to be the greatest third baseman in baseball history. This baseball glove strap measures 24mm (no taper), 75 mm x 124 mm x ~4.0 mm thick.   I stitched this strap with red Tiger thread, the best waxed polyester thread available.  Edges were burnished smooth. This strap features “GJ110 Rawlings” on the buckle side and the Mike Schmidt autograph on the long side.  The strap comes with one floating keeper: “Finest in the Field”. The first hole is 50 mm from the lug end.   Extra holes can be punched upon request. The strap comes with a stainless steel custom Mott screw-in Pre-V style buckle.  I also have bronze buckles, which can be exchanged at no additional charge.  If not specified, the strap will ship with a steel buckle. Sizing :  Baseball glove straps that are over 4.5mm tend to wear a bit smaller than their dimensions, since most OEM straps are less than 4 mm thick.  If you’re on the fence, I suggest you go with a longer strap or reach out about a custom strap. Most of my 24mm and 22mm straps will also work with Apple watches.  I can test fit adapters on them to make sure there is enough clearance.  Please ask before purchasing. Why Baseball Glove Straps? Baseball gloves are soft, thick and only get better with time. What better material to make into a watch strap?! The glove and thus the strap is soft yet durable and has acquired patina and character during its lifetime. The strap is made 100% from the glove it came from, making each strap a limited edition!  Mott Straps is the only strap maker using the glove for the entire strap - even the bottom layer.  You get the look and the feel of a baseball glove with a Mott Strap. The softness of glove leather makes the thickness work well on any watch, but especially with larger watches such as Panerai, Kaventsmann, Ennebi, Omega, etc.
