Strap for Norton

The lug width of the Bremont Norton is 22 millimetres. This measurement represents the distance between the two attachment points on the case where the strap inserts. To verify this measurement with precision, use a digital calliper positioned on the internal lugs of the case at the base of the ansa.

We recommend straps in dark brown alligator or full-grain vegetable-tanned calf leather, with a minimum thickness of 1.4 millimetres. Alligator offers characteristic grain and evolving patina; natural calf develops a patina that reflects the watch's wear. For tactical use, high-density nylon NATO or FKM rubber ensure water resistance and versatility.

Use a spring bar removal tool to gently extract the elastic pins that secure the strap to the lugs. Position the new strap on one lug, then insert the elastic pins by pressing until they click into position. Verify that the strap is centred and that there are no anomalous gaps.

Yes, any strap with a 22-millimetre lug width is fully compatible with the Norton. At Milano Straps you will find a wide selection of straps in leather, alligator, NATO and rubber, all specifically dimensioned for this width and ready for rapid dispatch, with the possibility of online customisation.

A full-grain calf or alligator leather strap, subject to regular maintenance (cleaning with a soft damp cloth, treatment with natural conditioner every 6–12 months), has an average durability of 5–8 years of daily wear. The patina that develops represents a desirable aesthetic evolution, not a sign of deterioration. In dry climates, longevity can extend further; in humid or chlorinated environments, it is advisable to alternate with rubber or NATO straps.
