Strap for Octo Roma 41 Pink Gold / Brown

The Bulgari Octo 102702 features a lug width of 24 millimetres. This measurement is essential for selecting compatible straps. To verify personally, remove the current strap and measure with a digital calliper the space between the lateral attachment pins on the case.

For the Octo 102702 in pink gold, we recommend dark brown alligator or vegetable-tanned calf leather. Alligator maintains luxury coherence with the precious case; calf offers natural patina that evolves over time. Both materials enhance the warm tones of pink gold without appearing monochromatic.

Strap replacement requires a specialised tool (spring bar tool) or watchmaker intervention. Position the watch on a soft cloth, locate the lateral pins in the lugs, gently push with the spring bar tool to extract the pin from the inner side, slide off the old strap and insert the new one by aligning the holes. Reinsert the pin until it locks.

Yes, any strap with a 24mm lug width is compatible with the 102702. However, to preserve the watch's value and guarantee constructive reliability, we recommend straps of certified quality, crafted with premium leathers and precise stitching. Casati Milano atelier offers bespoke straps with 18-month warranty.

A quality alligator or calf strap lasts 5-7 years under normal urban conditions. Constant humidity, chlorine and intense perspiration reduce this lifespan. To extend strap longevity, rotate with at least a second specimen and apply specialist wax every 2-3 months to maintain elasticity and nourish the fibres.
