Strap for DS-2 Turning Bezel Powermatic 80 Stainless Steel / Grey / Bracelet

The lug width (ansa width) of the Certina Heritage Collection C024.607.11.081.02 is 20 mm. This measurement is the external distance between the two lugs where the strap attaches via spring bars. It is compatible with hundreds of artisanal straps available online.

The ideal strap depends on intended use. For formal elegance: alligator or calf leather with vegetable tanning. For sports versatility: NATO strap in cotton-polyester. For pure functionality: natural or synthetic rubber with pronounced texture. All these materials are available in 20mm lug width from milanostraps.it.

To change the strap, gently remove one spring bar (the small metal spring) on each side using an appropriate tool or very thin screwdriver. This frees the original strap. Insert the spring bar into the corresponding position on the new strap and push until you hear a click. Repeat for the other side. Simple operation, but requires care to avoid damaging the lugs.

Yes, absolutely. Any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with this model. Artisanal aftermarket straps often offer superior material quality and customisation options unavailable in original accessories. MilanoStraps.it offers a wide selection of 20mm straps specifically designed for Swiss watches in this range.

Leather strap durability depends on tanning quality and usage. An alligator or calf leather strap with vegetable tanning, if properly maintained (dried after perspiration, protected from stagnant water), lasts 3-5 years with moderate daily use. With particular care, it can last over 5 years. Rubber and NATO straps have greater longevity, often exceeding 5-7 years. Replacement is simple and affordable.
