Strap for Jules Audemars Selfwinding Pink Gold / Diamond / Silver

The lug width of the Jules Audemars 15171OR.ZZ.A809CR.01 is 18mm. This measurement is taken with a digital caliper positioned between the two parallel lugs at the strap attachment point. All straps with 18mm lugs are compatible with this model.

For the 18-karat rose gold case of the Jules Audemars 15171OR, the most suitable strap is Louisiana alligator with a polished lacquered finish, preferably in cognac, burgundy, or tobacco brown. These materials and colors complement the warm tone of rose gold and respect the formal register of the dress watch. The buckle should be in rose gold or champagne PVD for metallurgical consistency.

Strap changes on the Jules Audemars 15171OR are performed with a fine-tipped lug opener or springbar tool. The 18mm spring bars are removed by gently leveraging between the lug and the strap, taking care not to scratch the rose gold case. It is recommended to work on a soft surface and, if in doubt, to rely on a watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier to avoid damage to precious surfaces.

Yes, all straps with standard 18mm lugs are compatible with the Jules Audemars 15171OR.ZZ.A809CR.01. Milano Straps offers a selection of artisanal aftermarket straps in alligator, calf, and other fine leathers, crafted to complement the rose gold case aesthetically. A bespoke strap is also available through the Casati Milano atelier for a made-to-measure solution.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the quality of the leather, frequency of use, and the care taken in storage. A high-quality alligator or calf strap, worn in rotation with other straps and protected from excessive moisture and perspiration, can last three to five years while maintaining a presentable appearance. Milano Straps straps are covered by an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
