Size Guide
The ‘lug width’ is simply the internal width measured between the lugs (where the watch strap fits) of the watch.

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 striving to offer the best possible leathers.
Key Features
- Produced using the finest Ostrich leg leather with an incredibly expressive and detailed texture.
- Available in several lug widths to fit most watches.
- A durable and long-lasting strap, handmade by experienced and passionate craftsmen.
The handstitched edge of the Durbuy strap has been expertly executed using matching 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.
About Ostrich Leather
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.
If you’re looking for a leather strap that has been meticulously crafted with unparalleled quality, why not check out our premium leather strap collection? Featuring our most exclusive designs and finest materials, the premium leather collection is a superior option for those looking for a luxuriously comfortable and sophisticated leather strap that perfectly complements their favourite high-end luxury watch.

Why Choose a Durbuy Ostrich Leg Handmade Leather Watch Strap - Gloss Cognac Brown ?
Careful Preparation
At each stage of the process, the materials are carefully checked. The pieces are individually cut out, and each watch strap is made one at a time. After the leather pieces have been selected and cut, they are adjusted to the correct thickness.
Before the parts are glued together, the lining of the strap is stamped with the details of the leather and our logo. Stamping at this stage ensures that the top leather cannot be damaged by the stamping process.
Assembled By Hand
Many years of experience are required to hand-make premium leather watch straps such as these. Typically, there are around one hundred steps in the production process, and each member of the team has their own area of expertise.
The process takes several days, and the straps move around the workshop as they progress from one stage to the next.
Stitching And Painting
Some of our designs are stitched by hand, one stitch at a time. Others are sewn with a machine. Either way, each strap is unique. All of the straps are painted by hand at the edges using a special paint, either with a contrasting or matching colour.
Before the edges can be painted, they are carefully examined to ensure that they are perfectly smooth and free of any defects. Then the paint is applied by hand using a wheel or a brush.
Quality Is Assured
These straps are the top of our range, our most premium product, so when the straps have been fully assembled, each one is subject to a quality inspection.
Every watch strap is individually checked one final time to ensure that it is perfect, and only straps that pass this final part of the process will be fitted with a buckle.
