Strap for Anomaly-01 Black PVD / Black

The lug width of the CODE41 Anomaly-01 AN01-BK-ST-LEA-COU-SP is 24mm. This specific measurement is compatible exclusively with straps featuring 24mm lugs, excluding alternative standards such as 22mm or 26mm. The proportional geometry of 24mm on a 42mm case ensures visual balance and mechanical stability during daily wear.

For the CODE41 Anomaly-01 AN01-BK-ST-LEA-COU-SP, alligator in vegetable tanning represents the highest aesthetic coherence: the regular texture and natural iridescence enhance the transparent dial's austerity. Shell cordovan serves as the alternative for those seeking chromatic boldness; full-grain calf offers professional durability. NATO canvas straps and butyl rubber guarantee functionality without compromise to its functionalist intent.

Strap replacement requires specialised tools such as a strap removal tool or spring bar extractor. Position the watch on a stable work surface, identify the lugs (lateral case attachments), and use the bar to push the locking pins outward from one lug. Once the pin is extracted, the previous strap releases. Insert the new strap by threading the lugs into the case attachments and repositioning the pin: feeling the mechanical click confirms correct assembly.

All straps with standard 24mm lugs are compatible with the AN01-BK-ST-LEA-COU-SP. Milano Straps curates a collection of models in alligator, calf, canvas NATO and rubber, specifically selected for proportion and aesthetic coherence with CODE41's contemporary language. Always verify that the lug width is exactly 24mm before purchase.

The longevity of a leather strap depends on wearing frequency and material quality. A fine alligator or calf, subjected to periodic rotation and proper maintenance (light cleaning, careful drying), resists 4–6 years of daily wear. Shell cordovan, due to its structural density, can extend to 8–10 years. Avoid direct intense sunlight and prolonged moisture exposure to maximise the leather's natural patina development.
