Strap for Real Moon Joure

The lug width of the CKRJ3304 is precisely 20mm. This measurement represents the distance between the two metal attachment points on the case where the strap lugs are fitted. It is essential to select straps specifically dimensioned at 20mm to ensure aesthetic stability and prevent unwanted lateral movement.

The ideal strap depends on your intended use. For formal occasions, we recommend dark brown alligator or burgundy shell cordovan, which enhance the case's satiny finish and the quadrant's astronomical complexity. For daily wear, vegetable-tanned calf in cognac tones offers evolving patina and comfort. For variable environments, satin black rubber ensures durability and maintenance simplicity without sacrificing elegance.

Strap replacement on the CKRJ3304 is accomplished by removing the metal lugs from their anchor points on the case. Using a small tool (spring bar tool or equivalent), gently release the small pins that secure the lugs, allowing the old strap to slide away and the new one to attach at the same points. This operation requires delicacy given the case's complexity. If inexperienced, we recommend assistance from Casati Milano or a specialised centre.

Yes, absolutely. Milanostraps.it offers a complete selection of artisanal 20mm straps compatible with the CKRJ3304: leather (alligator, calf, shell cordovan), NATO, and technical rubber. All straps are produced to European artisanal standards and are ready to ship. Aftermarket selection allows you to fully personalise your watch's aesthetics while maintaining dimensional compatibility certification.

A quality leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) worn daily typically lasts 3-5 years, with variation depending on climate, frequency of use, and maintenance. Vegetable tanning develops a natural protective patina that extends material life. Ageing is not a defect but aesthetic evolution: texture deepens, colour intensifies. Periodic strap replacement is ordinary maintenance for a luxury watch and allows complete aesthetic renewal without modifying the case.
