Integrated attachment: measurements, the most common questions, and the way to a made-to-measure strap.
Lug width to be confirmed
On this Certina DS Caimano C035.207.11.037.00 the lug width doesn't convince me, and I don't want to give you a number I'm not sure about. Write to me on WhatsApp with the reference or a photo of the watch: I'll check it and tell you myself.

Frequently asked questions
How do I change the strap on the Certina DS Caimano C035.207.11.037.00?
Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool. Position the watch with the two lugs facing you, insert the flat tip of the tool under the spring bar at the first side, apply gentle upward pressure until the pin retracts, then remove it. Repeat for the other side. To install the new strap, reinsert the spring bars into their respective seats. If you lack confidence, contact our Casati Milano atelier for bespoke guidance.
How long does a leather strap last on the Certina DS Caimano C035.207.11.037.00?
The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material, tanning method, your lifestyle, and maintenance. An alligator strap with vegetable tanning, worn daily but not exposed to extreme humidity, typically lasts 3-4 years before showing significant wear. Shell cordovan, thanks to its density, can last 5-6 years. NATO and rubber straps have longer lifespans (5-10 years) as they do not degrade due to moisture. Allowing the watch to air overnight reduces sweat accumulation and extends strap life.
