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.
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.
