What I'm asked about the Citizen Eco-Drive EM1098-68D

What strap size does the Citizen Eco-Drive EM1098-68D take?

The Citizen Eco-Drive EM1098-68D needs 14 mm between the lugs. It's the size I've been fitting on it for years.

Can the strap on the Citizen Eco-Drive EM1098-68D be changed?

Yes. It has spring bars between the lugs: with the right tool the strap comes off in a minute. If you'd rather not risk a scratch, I do it in the workshop.

Can I put a leather strap on the Citizen Eco-Drive EM1098-68D?

Yes, in 14 mm leather. On a 31 mm case a calf strap works every day; if you want something more, alligator.

Which strap do you recommend for the Citizen Eco-Drive EM1098-68D?

A 14 mm calf strap, for every day. I don't keep this size ready in the catalogue: I make it to measure. If you'd rather have something built on your wrist, the Casati atelier.
