It looks beautiful but fits nothing like an original strap. With the original there are no gaps between the strap and the lugs.
Thanks for the comment… MK
@@StrapaWatch can you please make one for me? I own the same watch!! :)
As stated in the title of this episode, ‘Never Again.’
@@StrapaWatch I know. I was pulling your leg! :)
Having just ordered a strap from Michael I want to compliment him on his communication from the point of ordering to dispatch. Michael, you are definitely old school in your approach to customer service. I mean that very much as a compliment. Your frequent email communication with your customer is really refreshing in these modern times. It demonstrates a level of care & committment to your customers that few others replicate. I can't wait to receive my first strap from you as I know that it will be exceptional, based on all of my dealings with you to date. You have a high standard of customer service that I know will also be reflected in your quality of craftmanship :)
@@tiffer67 Thanks Chris! MK
I am lost for words!!! Hey Michael wonderful straps that you created. Please stay motivated and we all are sure you can do wonders. You have years of years of experience for putting together all those masterpieces. May God bless you.
@@farukhhasan11 Thank you! MK
Beautiful work. 🇨🇦
Thanks Judith! MK
556 is a strap monsters but you made yours a strap master. Sinn sure are accurate and very utilitarian, but don't necessarily come out of Frankfort dressed up for a dinner party; so hope you would continue to sprinkle your beautiful but hopefully not too expensive magic dust and show us just how good looking 556s can be. Thanks for sharing and showing.
@@1millionstartups Thanks for the comment! MK
Hey Michael, can you please share the specifications of the thread that you use for stitching? I am a big fan of your stitching.
I use KS Blade 3.38 pricking irons at 2mm from edge, and.06 Ritza Tiger Thread. Thanks! MK
@@StrapaWatch thank you so much Sir for sharing the knowledge.
@@farukhhasan11 you’re welcome! MK
I'm late to this video brother..... fell and broke my right hip and right shoulder.... why fall and break just one thing... at 77 I don't bounce like I once did...haha
Wow Brother, I’m so sorry to hear this news, but I’m glad you’re ok. Probably no leather work for a while? Hopefully everything will heal up well and you’ll be back to yourself soon. God bless! MK
Very nice

Very cool! Thanks for Subscribing!!! MK
pretty cool Michael pretty cool indeed
@@johnhull2941 Thanks John! MK
Excellent job! I've got the 556a RS. The rallye strap with red stitching would be excellent! That white on Weiss is for the poolside! Great vid. Keep at it!
Thanks Mark! MK
Hi Michael, I'm a fan of Sinn as well and your watches look great on the new straps. I've always liked the rally strap on certain watches. Yes, you might consider toning the white strap down by adding the rally holes. I think it would be more appealing that way, IMO. Enjoy your vacation! Best regards, John
Ok Sr., you talked me into it. I’m punching the hole and applying the black edge coat today. I’ll shoot you a picture… Thanks! MK
Gotta LOVE the red tip on the white central seconds hand with the weiss dial!
Thanks Bobby… Hope everything’s cool in Kzoo! MK
Sinn RS version with black strap, red stitching looked good.
@@szurrogatum Yes it does! Thanks for the comment!!! MK
@@StrapaWatch Yay, I opened SINN's homapage and I couldn't find 556 white. I came back, and just rewatched the white dial's story. It was a limited edition. They should sell it again.
@@szurrogatum Only 150 made. Mine is number 99 of the 150… Thanks for the comment! MK
Great video Michael, glad to have you back! If i could subscribe twice I would! Lovely watches and great straps as always.
Thanks so much Chris! MK
The videos are amazing, the straps are class, top notch craftsmanship, but my favorite thing about your content is the story telling. You’re an absolute wonderful story teller and speaker. Thanks, as always, for making my day
@@zs1555 Thank you for such a kind comment! I really appreciate it!!! MK
Love the watches and the video. I put a white strap on my my white dial Sinn and thought it looked great. Wore it once and I said ah, it isn't a color strap I would wear too often and that was the last time. Anyways, quick question. I had you do a beautiful black shell cordovan strap with one of your stock butterfly clasps. If I wanted to have butterfly swapped out for a standard brushed clasp or possible a OM buckle that I have on one of my better watches, is that something you can do or what would you recommend? No rush on the response. Thank you. Jim
Thanks for the comment and honesty about your white strap. I have a feeling I’ll probably be in the same boat. No problem on swapping those out for you. Just ship me the strap back and I’ll do it for you at no charge. You’ll simply pay for shipping back and forth. Shipping address is on my Contract Me page. Thanks again Jim! MK
Another real nice video Michael and always love you telling a story while we visually watch your work…! Love it💯❤️👍 Greg
@@Crackers2549 Thanks Greg! MK
I really like the 556a and have almost went for one several times, but the only thing that really kept me from doing it is having never seen one in person and gotten to hold. Buying straight up online makes me nervous. Then other watches got in the way. One day, it'll just happen. Fun video as always.
@@gregs.8895 Thanks for the comment! I promise you won’t be disappointed when you get one. MK
So glad you have more content lately. Love your channel. Great show as always

Always great to see your vids. That is a fantastic chronograph and strap. 👍🏻
@@webvideofan Thank you! MK
Yes, Michael, ... sizing, Sizing, SIZING! A properly-sized, bespoke watch strap by Michael Knapp Leather is a special treat, indeed! No excess "tail" end and only one (1) dedicated (stitched in) keeper needed for a clean, precise, and finished look and feel! A premium hand-made strap made for your watch is one thing, but a custom made strap for your watch on YOUR wrist is another thing altogether! That black matte alligator leather sure is sweet!, but I wouldn't trade my black Shinki Hikaku shell cordovan with it's smooth silky luster on my vintage 1953 Omega Seamaster "bumper" automatic for anything! Keep them coming, good sir! ...and yes, GO GREEN!
Thanks Bobby! You Rock!!! MK
Hi Michael, hope you had a good 4th! Your strap looks great on this watch! Hope you have a nice vacation. Going back to the Outer Banks? Best regards, John

Hi! you should do this videos 4k, the beauty of your work is just amazing!
Thanks! My upload speed in my area is so slow that when I did try to upload in 4k it would have taken about 20 hours for a 15 minute video. I have to compress it using Handbreak into 1080p. UA-cam will many times start my videos in 720 until you switch it to a higher resolution. I’m hoping to get fiber installed soon so that I can upload in 4k. Thanks again! MK
