Cliff Booth 2-piece set ♦ BUND Watchband & Leather BRACELET ♦ "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" Brad Pitt replicas.
[THE WATCH IS FOR DEMONSTRATION ONLY AND IS NOT INCLUDED]
◘ B U N D ◘ [a wide pad that shields the wrist from the metal case of the watch]
This watch band is a "Bund" style watchband. Historically, the Bund was developed for the military to prevent the back of the watch case from touching the skin of the wearer. It's a two piece configuration; the narrow strap which weaves through the watch lugs, and the wider band. This two-piece design also gives the wearer the option of wearing the watch two different ways; with the wider band or for a more conservative look, the narrow band on its own. 100% made with my hands.
Featured here (and NOT included) with a Citizens 8110 Bullhead like the one worn by Brad Pitt in the movie, "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood".
The Story...
My Bund Watchband was originally designed and created for a customer and her husband's vintage Citizens 8110 Bullhead (like the watch that was worn by Brad Pitt in the movie, "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood"). She had sent me his watch to use to create the template to ensure that the band and strap would fit his Bullhead properly. Now I make them for you. Custom sizing to fit your watch is available. An additional fee may apply. Please contact me prior to ordering.

The leather bracelet Cliff Booth (played by Brad Pitt) wore in the movie, "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood", echoes Cliff's laid-back, Californian, "hippie-ish" vibe. It has been written that "such a specific piece would be difficult to pin down with 100% accuracy", and that's no lie. I studied many photos and watched many of the movie clips (over and over again) in my attempt to create an accurate replica...and I believe I have succeeded! If you are a Cliff Booth lover, a costuming enthusiast, or OUATIH fan, this bracelet will be the pièce de résistance to your collection.
Made from genuine 5-7 ounce Aztec leather, a 5/8" band is cut, edges sanded and burnished smooth, before its decorated on each side with 2 mm round red leather cord. The red cording on each of the bracelets sides, envelope 1.5 mm brown round leather cording; one side for the loop, and the other to attach a Mother of Pearl disk button, just like the one in the movie. Each of the ends of the brown leather cording are adorned with a recycled glass bead from Africa in the same colors as on the bracelet in the movie; green, blue, and red.

The fit of this bracelet is similar to the way Brad wore his in the movie which is loose (he sometimes pushed his up on his forearm). And, there is a space between the strap ends...the edges do not abut. For examples, see the photos in this listing, or check out this blog entry here.
When selecting a size in the drop down box, please CHOOSE THE WRIST MEASUREMENT that is closest to your actual wrist size...DO NOT ADD EASE OR SLACK to your wrist measurement and DO NOT MEASURE an EXISTING BRACELET (that is not your wrist measurement)...or the bracelet you receive may be too big. For help with taking an accurate measurement, click here.
If you prefer to wear your bracelets snug on your wrist, I suggest you order a half size smaller. Please contact me with any concerns, questions, or special "fit" requests Thank you!
