Received today but the quality isn't perfect for a $72 product. There is a huge stain on the strap. Am I picky?

I cannot wait to receive these. ... after I ordered two here on massdrop, I went perusing their website and saw that they had a 30% off deal going, including sale items. I found a great deal on some natural Essex straps and they came in the mail today. Absolutely beautiful! I cannot wait to get the ones I ordered here - I just know they are going to be great

I have read the reviews and seen great things about the strap. Unfortunately I can’t justify supporting this drop with the slight possibility that another color would be offered eventually. I’m sure it is a wonderful strap but I would never wear the colors that are offered. As James Taylor once said ”deep greens and blues are the colors I choose.” I am sure the colors currently offered work great for some people, but honestly I would avoid wearing them specifically for color alone. It’s just not me. All of the free natos I get from watch dealers that aren’t green, blue, black, grey, or some Bond combination of those, either gets given away or thrown away. I hope your drop finds the support it needs to offer more colors as my new Tudor Black Bay Steel would love a black, navy, or dark green Da-Luca. Best, Judson

Do these bands darken with age? I’d love to see a pic of the color and patina that the natural color develops.
I’m intrigued by the quality of the leather, but the color of the natural strap is much lighter than anything I’d normally buy. What can I expect it to look like after it patinas?
Thanks.

K.T.NYes these will darken a good amount over time. Don’t let the light color dissuade you as it is merely a snapshot at this exact time in it’s life.
We wrote a blog a long time ago that included photos of a natural colored leather shown side by side with the exact same leather that had been used and worn for a tad over a month. This would be a more extreme case, but it should show you what it can look like:

Could someone from MassDrop review the SPAM messages and please delete as appropriate.... I did my part and reported them....
While it is good to read someone else's opinion of a product, I don't think the posts in question have even seen the product being offered. Please do not use the "Discussion" here to try and sell your goods....

You don't want ONE of these, trust me. I bought ONE of the last drop (CXL) DaLuca had going and I'm kicking myself for it. I should of bought at least TWO (or more!!). I joined this drop the moment I saw it and I bought TWO of them! These are the nicest straps I have ever seen or worn - I love these!
DA-LUCA -- do these straps have the stamping on the back like I have seen for some of the shell cordovan, or is that typically just a Horween "trademark"?
Thanks for putting these out there for us --- I recently just discovered your straps and before long, I think I will have several for each of my watches -- high quality stuff that I have received - very happy!!

LSNadonThank you for the kind words. If you need anything else at all just let us know. We are humbled and here to serve our customers. We are here because of you, so thank you.
The stamps (ink) are only on Horween Shell Cordovan, but we do hot stamp our logo onto the back of the longer version of these drops.
