Crocodile Strap for the Citizen CA7027-08E
Share
An all-black build is harder than it looks: the leather, lining, stitching, and clasp all have to match, or the strap reads as patchy. This build is a black crocodile strap for the Citizen CA7027-08E, cut 80/130 mm at 20 mm with a V-square tip, a black deployant, and a black lining the owner asked for. The brief was a fully blacked-out croc strap.

Why these choices
Crocodile softens with wear and takes a hand-rubbed patina, and an all-black croc keeps the focus on the scale pattern rather than color. We matched the stitching and the lining in black so the strap stays monochrome inside and out, as the owner requested.
The V-square tip is a squared-off taper that suits the Citizen's case lines, and a black deployant finishes the blacked-out look while securing the tail. Padding gives the strap body to match the case.
At 80/130 mm the strap is cut for a 7.5 inch (19 cm) wrist with the case centered.
