The Beaufort Genuine Italian Perforated Racing Watch strap collection features a variety of premium Minerva Box leather and suede leather watch straps. The Minerva Box leather straps use a vegetable tanned calf leather from the Badalassi Carlo tannery in Italy, producing an incredibly smooth and supple strap.
The Beaufort takes on a classic racing strap design, with a contrasting edge stitching that will suit a wide variety of watches, especially racing style chronographs. The Beaufort includes a stainless-steel buckle and quick-release spring bars so you can swap between straps tool-free.
Key Features
About The Minerva Box Leather
The Beaufort is made from Minerva Box leather sourced from the renowned Badalassi Carlo tannery in Tuscany, Italy. The Minerva Box leather is a tumbled vegetable-tanned leather that has a natural grain. This means that the texture of the leather will vary slightly from strap to strap. Overall, Minerva Box is one of the best vegetable-tanned leathers in the world, and it makes for a supple and richly coloured strap.
About The Suede Leather
The Beaufort is made from genuine Italian suede leather from Opera, an Italian tannery in the heart of Tuscany that has been operating for more than three decades. They’re one of the best tanneries in the world and as a result, the strap is soft and pliable from the outset.
