The Durbuy ostrich leg handmade watch strap combines the shin and calf of the Ostrich, obtaining an intricate incredibly expressive design that can be compared to crocodile leather. This particular leather is highly durable with an exotic pattern that becomes patinated and embellished over time.
Each Durbuy ostrich leather watch strap is a unique and timeless piece that has been meticulously crafted by hand at a family-run workshop in Oostende, Belgium. Their experienced craftsmen dedicate a great deal of time to creating each watch strap, never compromising on quality and always use the best possible leathers.
The strap has been expertly sewn using matching thread and the sides are hand-painted with a colour stain to match the leather. This watch strap is available in several lug widths and features a robust stainless-steel buckle with a highly polished finish.
Ostrich leg leather is renowned for its exceptional durability, flexibility, and supple texture. Naturally enriched with oils, this leather is highly resistant to high temperatures and prolonged sun exposure, maintaining its quality and appearance over time. While crafting straps from ostrich leg leather can be more intricate and costly compared to calf leather, the unique qualities and luxurious feel make it a distinctive choice for those seeking something truly special in watch straps.
