Our Story

In the heart of a country steeped in the traditions of leather craftsmanship, there was a story waiting to be written—a tale of passion, legacy, and an unwavering commitment to the artistry of timekeeping. This story, my story, begins with Aryaan Watch Straps.

I am the son to a lineage of leather artisans, a torchbearer of a tradition passed down through generations. My grandfather, a master of his craft in handsewn shoemaking, had been a revered figure in the world of leather. His hands were skilled, his heart devoted to the art of fashioning leather into timeless treasures. In the midst of leather-working benches, the scent of tanned hide, and the whisper of hand-stitched seams, my childhood unfolded. These memories became my roots, deeply embedded in the soil of artisanal excellence.

However, life took its inevitable course, and my beloved grandfather eventually passed away, leaving behind an empty space in our family's atelier. It was then that a quiet but persistent fire ignited within me. I realised that I needed to reignite the fading embers of leather craftsmanship, not just as a tribute to my heritage but as an extension of my personal passions—watches.

Watches had always held a special place in my heart. The intricate movements, the meticulously designed dials, and the timeless elegance of watchmaking fascinated me. It was a world where time itself was a canvas, and each watch told a story—a story that I longed to become a part of.

With my grandfather's teachings as my foundation, I set out on a journey to marry my love for watches with the timeless charm of leather. I dedicated myself to perfecting the art of crafting exquisite watch straps that would not only hold timepieces but elevate them to a new level of elegance and sophistication.

Aryaan Watch Straps was born from this vision—a haven for watch enthusiasts and connoisseurs who cherished the marriage of exceptional craftsmanship and luxury timepieces. The name itself held a special significance. Aryaan, the name of my fiancé and my partner in this grand endeavour, was not just a title; it was a symbol of the love and passion that infused every stitch and cut in our creations. In fact, our first encounter had been marked by a simple compliment, "nice name." Little did I know that this name would become the cornerstone of our shared dreams.

Our ambition was clear—to create the largest luxury watch strap store, a sanctuary where watch aficionados could indulge in a world of possibilities. Our collection would span an array of sizes and colours, meticulously curated to cater to the diverse tastes of our discerning clientele. From the supplest of calf leather to the exotic allure of alligator skin, every strap would bear the imprint of our dedication and expertise.

Aryaan Watch Straps wasn't just a business; it was a legacy reborn, a testament to our unwavering commitment to preserving the artistry of leather craftsmanship while embracing the timeless allure of watches. It was a tribute to my grandfather and a celebration of the future, where Aryaan and I, bound by our shared love for both each other and our craft, would continue walking in the footsteps of those who came before us.

As we embarked on this remarkable journey, we knew that each strap we created would be a reflection of our love, our passion, and our unwavering commitment to excellence. Aryaan Watch Straps was not just a store; it was a testament to the enduring connection between art, tradition, and the timeless essence of time itself.

All of our leather straps are handmade using leather from the finest tanneries around the world. We hope by visiting our store and purchasing one of our watch straps that you will appreciate the quality of our straps and become part of our journey in helping us grow with new colours and collections. 

Yours sincerely,

Jiten & Aryaan
