Integrated bracelet: measurements, the most common questions, and the way to a made-to-measure strap.
Integrated bracelet
The Casio G-Shock 6900 GD-X6900CM-8 is designed with a bracelet integrated into the case. For a compatible made-to-measure strap, the Casati Milano atelier builds it on your watch.

Frequently asked questions
Can you fit a standard strap on the Casio G-Shock 6900 GD-X6900CM-8?
No, the bracelet is integrated into the resin case. There is no standard lug where you can attach a regular strap. I've watched many try, but the proprietary architecture of the 6900 doesn't allow it. That's why we build custom straps directly in the atelier.
How does the custom strap work for this G-Shock?
We work by appointment only at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>. I take measurements directly from your case, study the resin lugs millimetre by millimetre, and build the adapter that allows perfect fitment. It's not fast, but it's precise.
Which leather do you recommend for the GD-X6900CM-8?
Tuscan leather with vegetable tanning. This G-Shock is brutal, built for resistance: it deserves leather that ages, that patinas, that tells the story of wear. Premium Italian NATO is an alternative if you prefer practicality and lightness. It depends on how you live with it.
How long does a well-made strap last?
With the right leather and minimal care, 5 to 10 years of regular use. The buckle ages better than the leather itself. I've seen 8-year-old straps that still look young because the owner treated them with respect. Natural leather improves over time, it doesn't deteriorate.
Why is the 6900 module so difficult to transform with a custom strap?
Because Casio conceived the 6900 as a monolithic architecture: extreme resistance means total integration between case and bracelet. No compromises, no weak joints. It's this technical brutality that makes it legendary, but it's exactly this that makes our adaptation work a fascinating challenge.
