La Touraine Heritage Racer Noir
The Machine That Measures the Man.
The Heritage Racer Noir isn’t just a timepiece—it’s a statement. Inspired by the golden age of motorsport and engineered for the modern gentleman, this mechanical chronograph captures the spirit of speed, precision, and refined strength.
Whether you’re navigating the daily grind or chasing your next victory, the Heritage Racer Noir is built to perform—and built to last.
Engineered to Endure. Styled to Command.
Encased in a bold, scratch-resistant Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating, the Heritage Racer Noir features a sharp black dial accented by C3 Super-LumiNova® lume on the hands, indices, and ceramic bezel. This ensures high legibility, day or night, with a commanding aesthetic that never fades.
A sapphire crystal with anti-reflective (AR) coating protects the dial from scratches and glare, so you can read the time clearly—whether you’re standing at the podium or behind the wheel.
With 10 ATM water resistance, it’s built to handle rain, sweat, and everyday wear with rugged confidence.
Mechanical Mastery, On Display
At the heart of the Heritage Racer Noir lies the Seagull ST1902 mechanical chronograph—a movement celebrated for its durability and legacy in watchmaking.
Through the transparent exhibition caseback, you can watch its gears in motion—an ever-present reminder that real craftsmanship doesn’t need charging, just winding.
The tachymeter scale on the bezel brings vintage utility back into focus, allowing you to measure speed or distance with analog precision.
Straps That Match Your Drive
Every Heritage Racer Noir comes with three expertly curated straps, designed to adapt to your lifestyle:
- Genuine leather strap with quick-release spring bars and white French contrast stitching — timeless, elegant, and ready for any formal setting.
- Iconic “secret agent” NATO strap — rugged, lightweight, and made for men who operate with quiet confidence.
- DLC-coated stainless steel flat link bracelet with quick release, milled clasp, and push-button micro-adjustment — for the perfect fit and a commanding wrist presence.

Unyielding Durability
The La Touraine Heritage Racer is built to withstand life’s challenges. We chose DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating over PVD because DLC offers superior hardness, scratch-resistance, and wear resistance.
Whether you’re at the office or outdoors, the Heritage Racer resists scuffs, scratches, and wear better than PVD-coated watches. With DLC’s lasting durability, your timepiece stays as sharp and elegant as the day you first wore it.
