Interesting to hear the story behind Delugs. Yesterday, I ordered a new watch. The Zelos Nova Tantalum. Immediately afterwards, I ordered a navy saffiano strap from you. I think it will be a beautiful combination. Keep up the good work. Love from the Netherlands.
I've ordered both stock and custom straps from Delugs and greatly appreciate the excellent quality, value, and customer service. It's a treat to learn the story of the brand and virtually meet you. Thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing this, Ken. I've bought quite a few items from you and can finally put a face and story to the name. Congrats on building such a wonderful business and asset for the watch community.
Ken, I’m so glad to get to ‘meet’ you in this first YT vid (I’ve subscribed),as I’ve been a fan from ‘20, and have always wondered about how this all started, who starts a watch strap company, and am just completely enamored by the fit and finish of the many Delugs straps I’ve purchased over the last few years. Beautiful work and congratulations on creating such an inviting, warm and enthusiastic community of watch strap enthusiasts through you and the Delugs team!
This is a wonderful video. So good to see the face behind the great product and the hard work. Please keep going with these videos, and keep telling more of these stories. Great job Ken!!
Maybe some short videos showing 3-4 good pairings of straps with popular watches; a style guide for people trying to figure out which textures/colors go well with their watches. For example, take a Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch, and show how you could give it different looks, for dressing it up with a suit, or down with casual wear.
Thanks for sharing your story. Amazing to know how it all started and evolved to one of the best strap brand. You had made my collection even more special. More power to you and your team!!!!
Hey Ken! Great to finally see you on RU-vid. Looking forward to many more videos on your straps and watch cases. Any idea when the Green Prism case will be in stock?
Cheers! We don't have a Prism Trio with a green exterior at the moment - were you referring to the grey/green colourway that we had? Unfortunately that has been discontinued
Just ordered my 1st Delugs strap (pink one for my PRX) and was wondering - was it you Ken whom I met at W&W 2024 in hotel Beau-Rivage and gave me a free strap tool? 🤩 Great work!! 👏🏽
Great to hear the story! With every successful brand comes a long backstory and yours was wonderful! Wishing you and the team all the best for what's to come!
Enjoyed that Ken, good to put a face to the name. You said you were nervous, but you’re a natural. Well done. I’d love to see more leather crafting videos, and more detailed reviews of various types of leather, discussions about the pros and cons, as well as the thought process of identifying good leather… if you randomly see a strap, how can you easily tell whether it’s “good quality” or not. What differentiates good from GREAT? What to look out for when evaluating craftsmanship, and how high end brands like Hermes do things, versus low end brands … hope that’s sufficient food for thought!
Loved the video. I remember ordering some straps for my Apple Watch during the COVID lockdown, and looking forward to getting them in the mail. They quickly became my favorite straps for the watch. When ever I get a new watch, this is the first site I go to for strap replacement. Great job to the Delugs team, and thank you Ken for turning your passion into a great company!
As a proud Singaporean, i envy your success and hope that other Singaporeans would follow suit. Would love to see u colab with other Singapore brands like Vario, Zelos, Gruppo, etc..❤
What an amazing story. I own several Delugs straps, and am bringing the family to Singapore this Dec…will most definitely come by the store to hopefully meet you!
Whoop! First comment. Great video. I would be really interested to see a video on the different types of leather you use for your straps. You mentioned one in the video I had never heard of (Babele) which looked lovely. I'm looking forward to getting my strap folio, then filling it with some beautiful straps, from Delugs...obviously.
Ken, great to finally know about the story and everything. amazing product line and production development group. Always engage with the customer and exploring new material/designs. Hope to meet you in SG or elsewhere someday. Dom (THD)
Wonderful to hear your story. I just checked and I got a Chromexcel strap from you in Jan 2020. Not quite at the beginning of your journey, but still in the early days!
Hey Ken, glad too finally see you face. Love the quality of your goods! Delugs had been my go-to shop for straps since 2020. High quality, huge selection, timely shipping. I’m still using the leather Bifold you made since 2020 and it does not age a day!
first. this is awesome, ken! big delugs fan. i really appreciated your personal attention when the straps i purchased ended up being too small, and you helped me narrow down the right size for me. i'm still enjoying my black saffiano, navy saffiano, matte dolphin grey alligator, and forest green ostrich straps for my solarbeat tank! cheers to the team and stay strapped! 💘
I thought it would be a nice touch to put in. Not just to talk about how we've grown, but to show that change and growth. I'll try to feature more of the team too (they are a little shy)
Let’s go Ken! Delugs offers great quality straps that are fairly priced and on top of that, customer service has been top notch in my experience. I’m very happy to see the continued success of the brand ever since I came upon your instagram and made my first purchase some 3-4 years ago and hope it keeps growing.
Thanks so much for following our journey from the early days! Customer service has been a top priority for us, and trying to keep up with the same level of service even as we grow has not been the easiest.
I came to Delugs since they offered so many size variations in length and width, and then have become a repeat customer due to the quality of the leather. Thanks Ken!
