The Boutsen Racing watch strap is handmade from Horse leather that has been vegetable tanned with leaves and olive tree bark, achieving a beautiful and supple grain that feels very comfortable on the wrist. The patina of the leather pairs beautifully with a vintage timepiece or racing-style chronograph, feeling luxuriously soft even when first worn.
Each Boutsen Racing 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 striving to offer the best possible leathers.

The strap takes on an iconic racing-style design, with a handstitched edge which has been expertly executed using contrasting thread and 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.
