Strap for Marine Dame 9518 Stainless Steel - Diamond / Blue / Bracelet

The Breguet Marine 9518ST/YD/S80/D001 is fitted with a 20mm lug width. To verify on your own watch, measure the internal distance between the lugs at their narrowest point using a caliper. All straps compatible with 20mm lugs are available on milanostraps.it.

For the Marine 9518, an alligator with hornback grain or box-calf leather represent the most coherent choices with the watch's sartorial register. Alligator enhances the sunburst finish of the bezel; leather develops patina over time. For sports or summer use, vulcanized rubber maintains the nautical character without sacrificing comfort.

Replacing the original integrated bracelet requires attention to the specific geometry of the case lugs, which have a distinctive curvature. For fitting an aftermarket strap with standard spring bars, it is advisable to consult an experienced watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier, where bespoke craftsmanship includes verification of geometric compatibility.

The durability of a leather strap depends on the material, daily wear, and care. Quality alligator, worn in rotation and kept away from prolonged moisture, maintains structural and aesthetic integrity for 3–5 years. Box-calf leather, more subject to use patina, typically lasts 2–4 years. Casati Milano guarantees its straps for 18 months against manufacturing defects.
