Good is not good enough

The satisfaction of our customers is our guiding principle in everything we do.

Good is not good enough

With this philosophy Fluco has been producing fine watch straps since 1952. Ulrich Fleischmann, the third generation of the family, now runs the company that his grandfather, a Portefeuiller, founded almost 70 years ago in Furth im Wald.

When he was a young boy, he spent every free minute in the leather workshop, fascinated by the craftsmanship of his grandfather, under whose hands small leather works of art were created. It wasn’t long before Ulrich put his own hands to work and, at the age of not even 10 years, proudly wore his first self-manufactured watch bracelet.

The passion for fine craftsmanship never left him, he completed his apprenticeship in the in-house manufactory, learned everything worth knowing about the texture of fine leather and took over the family business at the age of only 21 years after his father’s death in 1990.

About our manufacturing

Our straps are 100% made in our factory in Furth im Wald. For decades we have constantly improved and perfected the manufacture of watch straps. Today’s hall was built in 1990 and still stands for a place where quality is created.

In almost 60 work steps, small masterpieces are created in our manufactory under the skilled hands of qualified and experienced employees. To get a little insight into the complex production, we recommend watching the video about the production of our Instrmnt straps.

Species protection

For watch straps made of reptile leather and the trade in them, special laws apply that have been developed in the interests of species protection in accordance with the Washington Convention on the Protection of Species, which is valid worldwide.

In this it is mandatory to prove that watch straps made of reptile leather have been legally acquired. All reptile watch straps are marked with an IRV flag (species protection). According to the provisions of the Washington Convention on the Protection of Species, this guarantees that the leather is an article that is flawless in terms of species protection law.

I recently ordered a watchcase for my 2 watches here and I have to say that I am more than satisfied. You won’t get any other product of this quality for this price. Fluco should still work a little on its marketing, but the products are already great.
