Proudly Philippine Made Personalized Apple Watch Straps
(Manila, Philippines) – I recently got my own Apple Watch Series 3 and I’m totally loving it. Although it doesn’t have the sleep tracker present at Fitbit, the fact that the watch can be synchronized with my iPhone X made it one of my favorite wearable gadgets.
I also love the fact that the Apple Watch straps can be replaced anytime in just a snap. This means that I can use the watch while exercising, hiking, swimming or just walking around a particular city I’m visiting. Coincidentally, I received a leather Apple Watch band from NOMAD via Amazon which by the way is one my favorites now.
Lucky Find
While walking around the Fashion Hall of SM Megamall, I saw Hunter Tradition, a store that produces personalized and customized watch straps and guess what? They also make Apple Watch bands!!!
While looking at their products, I interviewed one of their staff and I learned that all the raw leathers they are using are premium genuine cow leathers from Bulacan.
They have various strap designs in different colors and textures. Customers can get their customized handcrafted watch straps in just an hour or two depending on the number of orders they are currently working on. You can even watch them do the cutting, stitching, and assembling of your personalized watch strap.
They started selling online and at various bazaars before they finally opened their kiosks in Makati and Mandaluyong based malls. Some of their products are also on display at YOURTIME Greenbelt 1 and KEY.STAR at Makati Supermart, Service Town Alabang Town Center, BF Homes Paranaque, and Pilar Plaza Las Pinas.
How much does it cost? Each carefully hand built watch strap cost P3,500.
Apart from the customized and personalized watch straps, they also produce key holders, passport covers, card holders and coin purses.
Apart from the fact that you can customize your own watch strap while waiting, all of the products they are selling are 100% made in the Philippines!! Lets all go local and support homegrown entrepreneurs.
