Great special holiday gifts for the watch collector in your life. These are all 70-year-old vintage bands that exist as New Old Stock from the 1950s. There is sort of no point objecting to these as elephant trade, since they are old stock made legally during a time gone by and, if anything, take away from any market for newly made items from elephant. They exist. Let’s use them.

Deployant clasp Genuine Elephant bands available in black or dark brown, with steel or yellow gold-plated clasps, to fit watches with strap sizes 11/16 or 3/4 inches (equivalent to 18mm or 19mm). Priced at $175. These patented JB sliding clasp bands are incredibly comfortable because the tension on the band is always perfect.

Certain watch collectors are very fond of Genuine African Elephant watchbands because every one is unique with a different highly-textured skin pattern and they are incredibly durable. These are JB Champion USA new old stock bands from the 1950s. Plus, they are long enough for even the largest wrists or short enough for small wrists. It's easy to adjust these or even trim them as shown to fit very small wrists. Each one comes perfectly preserved like a little time capsule in the original plastic box shown

Putting one of these on an old watch will instantly transform it into having today's popular Dark Academia look. Here are the few dark brown ones left.

The brown ones can come with either the gold or steel clasp hardware, as can any of these black ones:
