Strap for Alpine Eagle 41 Stainless Steel / Rose Gold / Grey

No, the bracelet is integrated into the case. The lug attachment isn't proprietary in the classical sense — it's the case geometry itself that defines it. A standard strap won't engage. This is why I work directly on the watch in the atelier, building the strap bespoke around its specific architecture.

Visit <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a> by appointment only. I take measurements directly from the case, study the lug curvature and octagonal geometry. Then I hand-model the strap, ensuring the attachment respects the original profile millimetre by millimetre. It's work that cannot be done remotely.

Mississippi alligator in tobacco. This watch has a brutalist, sporty soul — the integrated bracelet already tells that story. A natural, lived-in leather that ages with character suits that geometry better. Barenia works equally well, but alligator carries the patina that respects the visual weight of the octagonal bezel and sunray dial.

If built with quality leather and cared for — dried after rain, kept out of direct sun — it lasts 5 to 7 years of daily wear. It ages beautifully: it darkens, gains patina. It depends on how you treat it. Once exhausted, you return to the atelier and I build a new one from measurements I already have on file.

Yes, but it's not a replica. Chopard took the brutalist language of that model — the integrated bracelet, the octagonal bezel — and reinterpreted it with contemporary techniques and materials. The ethical rose gold and Lucent Steel A223 give it different character. It's a conversation between eras, not a copy. This is why the strap must respect that philosophy: simple, well-built, without noise.
