02 — Bund construction

What is a
Bund strap?

A Bund has a leather backing between the watch case and your wrist. It extends beyond the case, changing the outline of the watch and adding a layer beneath it.

On this Asketica strap, the backing continues beneath two folded attachments that hold the watch at its lugs.
