Frequently asked questions

What is the exact lug width of the A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia 740.056?

The lug width is 20 mm. This dimension corresponds to the suspension holes on the case lugs, measured horizontally. Before ordering a strap, always verify the measurement using a digital calliper between the two holes: the value should be 20.0 ± 0.2 mm to ensure mechanical compatibility.

Which strap material is most recommended for the Saxonia 740.056?

Alligator leather with vegetable tanning represents the ideal choice for this white gold timepiece: the geometric pattern of the scales integrates harmoniously with the minimalist German aesthetic. Hermès buttero calf offers a sophisticated alternative. We advise against NATO canvas or rubber, which appear stylistically incongruent with the formal character of the Saxonia.

How do I change the strap on my Saxonia 740.056?

Use a dedicated spring bar tool to precisely remove the pins that secure the strap to the lugs. Position the watch on a soft surface (microsuede pad) to protect the caseback. Insert the tool into the lateral groove of the pin, apply gentle pressure and extract the shaft orthogonally. Repeat from the other side. Reverse the operation to install the new strap, verifying that the pins are fully inserted into both holes.

Can I use an aftermarket strap with 20 mm lug width on this Saxonia?

Yes, any strap with 20 mm lug width is mechanically compatible. However, bespoke craftsmanship remains decisive: straps handcrafted by specialised workshops guarantee progressive taper, refined edge finishing and personalised deployante, significantly elevating the aesthetic result compared to generic serial production.

How long does a leather strap last on a watch like the Saxonia?

An alligator or calf strap of quality, with vegetable tanning, maintains structural integrity between 3 and 5 years with regular use and ordinary maintenance. Durability depends on frequency of wear, exposure to perspiration, direct heat and humidity. Protecting the leather from prolonged sunlight and keeping it dry significantly extends useful life. Casati Milano provides an 18-month warranty on all handcrafted straps.
