Corfam Style Racing Black Leather Watch Strap

Corfam, DuPont’s synthetic leather, was introduced in the early 1960s to substitute real leather. Watch brands started using this material to create racing style Corfam straps for chronograph models - and this watch/strap combo became very popular. We went a step further and took precise measurements of an original strap from that time (that came with one of these watches) and produced a faithful reinterpretation using high quality leather.
Our Corfam Style Racing Black Leather Watch Strap is handmade out of high quality Italian stamped calf leather by true watch enthusiasts. It is inspired by the racing straps commonly used with popular chronographs of the late 60s and early 70s, including Heuer, Omega, Breitling and others. This strap features a more pronounced tapering, giving it a fine vintage appearance.
Our intention was to create a robust and durable strap which will develop a beautiful patina over time, and only get better with age. Only traditional manufacturing methods were used along with natural tannins and wax. Each strap is unique and small variances may occur as a normal part of the handmade manufacturing process.
Please note: Our products are completely handmade in a time consuming process. Each strap is made to order, so there is a lead time of 10 business days.

Highest quality italian leather
All of our straps are handcrafted using the finest quality Italian calf or shell cordovan leather, known for their exceptional durability, suppleness, and aesthetic appeal. As our straps age, they develop a distinct patina that adds to their character and charm.
Leather skiving
The skiving process results in a refined and streamlined product by reducing the thickness of the leather. This enables the leather to bend and flex more easily, making the strap more comfortable to wear.
Stitching done by hand
Our straps are stitched entirely by hand, adding a personal touch and creating a truly unique product. The careful stitching ensures that the strap is not only secure, but also enhances the strap's visual appeal.
Smooth and polished painted edges
We utilize a meticulous multi-step process to finish our edges. Each edge is carefully sanded and coated by hand with multiple layers of edge paint, resulting in a smooth and polished finish that enhances the overall look and feel of the strap.
Quick release spring bars
We offer the option of including quick release spring bars with your strap, making it easy to change without requiring any special tools or expertise. These spring bars are designed for convenience and efficiency, providing a hassle-free solution for swapping out your strap.
Premium signature buckle
Our signature buckles are crafted from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring durability and longevity. Everything from the buckle pin to the body is crafted from solid steel (not folded steel). We offer the option of choosing between a brushed or polished finish, allowing you to select the perfect pairing for your watch.
