Black & Slate Grey Vegan Leather Watch
Black & Slate Grey Vegan Leather Watch
A 40mm minimalist timepiece from Votch, powered by a Japanese GL20 movement and fitted with a slate grey strap made from PVC-free, phthalate-free faux leather that incorporates recycled and renewable content — the material standard that separates Votch from brands that simply swap out animal leather and stop there.

The Aalto is Votch's take on nautical minimalism: a clean 40mm brushed-finish case, a black dial, and a slate grey strap that does exactly what a good watch strap should — sit well on the wrist, wear well over time, and not require a compromise on what it is made from.
The strap is the detail worth knowing about. Votch uses a faux leather that is free from PVC, phthalates, heavy metals, flame retardants, and added antimicrobial chemicals. It is produced with low VOC emissions and incorporates recycled and renewable content. That is a meaningfully higher bar than most vegan leather alternatives, which tend to stop at being animal-free.
The quick-release strap mechanism means it is interchangeable — useful if you want to switch up the look without tools or fuss. The watch arrives in an eco-friendly pouch and box.

About Our Brand Votch
Votch addresses the challenge conscious shoppers face in finding genuinely stylish watches that do not rely on animal-derived materials. The brand provides a focused range of timepieces, ensuring that accessories reflect personal values without compromising aesthetic appeal.
What truly distinguishes Votch is its rigorous material standard; instead of merely substituting conventional leather, the brand utilises PVC-free and phthalate-free faux leather, incorporating recycled and renewable content. This commitment significantly lowers the environmental footprint of each strap compared to most vegan leather alternatives, extending beyond just being animal-free.
Votch views material development as an ongoing process, actively researching new materials and design directions. This approach treats ethical production as a creative challenge, highlighting a commitment to continuous improvement that sets Votch apart from brands that simply make a single material swap and cease further innovation.
