Calfskin is good.

Calfskin is a relatively common and very cheap type of leather strap, calfskin without ginning, no matter what stripes, slightly ordinary, but can fully express the elegant temperament of the formal watch. And a sporty sports watch with a calfskin strap can also be a quiet and elegant place to adapt to business affairs. However, the calfskin strap has rarely been used in the most advanced watches to date.

Compared with crocodile skin, calfskin is much cheaper, so it is also a common match for formal watches. Even those exaggerated sports watches can also be balanced with calfskin. For example, Panerai and Hermes are known for their calfskin belts, and the latter's calfskin straps are not inferior to crocodile skin.

But it's worth noting that calfskin is sometimes dressed as a crocodile skin. How to identify is also a matter of learning. Specifically, the crocodile-grain leather strap is made by pressing a crocodile pattern on a cowhide belt, so a brand of crocodile-grain leather belt is generally a pattern. But the real crocodile leather strap is different.
