Frequently asked questions
Can a standard strap be fitted to the A. Lange & Söhne Odysseus 363.179?
No, and I say this clearly: the Odysseus bracelet is integrated into the case, an intrinsic part of the original architectural design. There is no standard lug to attach an off-the-shelf strap. The only option is to have a strap made to measure, directly on the watch, in the atelier.
How does the bespoke service work for the Odysseus?
I work exclusively by appointment at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, at Via XX Settembre 15 in Milan. Bring the watch with you: I take measurements directly from the case, study the proprietary attachment and build the fitting by hand, millimetre by millimetre. This is not something that can be done remotely with a model like this.
Which leather do I recommend for the Odysseus?
For a sports watch of this nature, my preference is Barenia. It is a leather that ages with intelligence: it absorbs daily use, develops a personal patina, and holds up well against the dynamism this watch demands. Mississippi Alligator is a valid choice for those who wear it mainly in formal settings, but the Odysseus was made to move.
How long does a well-made leather strap last?
A strap built with quality leather and worn with care lasts five to eight years, sometimes longer. Leather should be kept away from prolonged exposure to water and treated periodically with a neutral conditioner. Over time, noble leathers like Barenia do not deteriorate: they change, and often improve.
What makes the Odysseus different from other Lange watches?
Lange built its reputation on grand Saxon complications, on watches to be worn with reverence. The Odysseus, launched in 2019 and designed by Christian Weyers, is the brand's first step into the luxury sports watch arena: steel, integrated bracelet, dynamism. It is a bold internal departure, and you feel it on the wrist.
The next step
The right strap isn't chosen. It is built, together.
From the atelier appointment to delivery, every step is made for those who know that things done well take time. Rare leathers, one piece at a time, eighteen months of warranty.
