Watchband

This watch was a gift from my boss about a year ago, but I could not get used to the nylon band that came with it. It was meant to be adjustable, and was, but because I have pretty small wrists, I couldn't get the fit right for me. So I tucked it away, meaning to attempt a one piece leather band for it at some point. 

The leather used is basic tooling leather from Hobby Lobby, which was just the right thickness as it came, to fit between the band posts and the watch body. Black stain, hardware swiped from the other band, and a coat of mink oil, and the band is finished. If you look at it, there are imperfections for sure, but it's workable for me and better than the nylon one it came with.
