Strap for Anomaly-01 Stainless Steel / Silver

The lug width of the CODE41 Anomaly-01 AN01-IN-SIL-ST-BK is 24mm. This measurement is taken between the outer edges of the spring bars attached to the case. A compatible strap must measure exactly 24mm wide at the base to ensure the lugs sit flush without mechanical play.

For the Anomaly-01, straps in vegetable-tanned alligator or premium calf leather represent excellent aesthetic choices, as their natural patina evolves in harmony with the watch's declared mechanical transparency. Alternatively, a NATO strap in cotton emphasises the functional aspect, whilst FKM rubber offers sport-chic versatility. The choice depends on your usage context and personal preference for texture and finish.

To change the strap, use a spring bar tool to extract the pins attached to the lugs. Position the tool in the dedicated slot beneath the pin, apply gentle pressure to compress the internal spring, and slide the pin sideways. Once removed, insert the new strap (ensuring the lugs face outward) and reinsert the pin into its seat. Proceed carefully to avoid scratching the case.

Yes, absolutely. Any strap with a 24mm lug width is compatible with the AN01-IN-SIL-ST-BK, regardless of manufacturer. Milano Straps offers a comprehensive collection of 24mm straps in various materials and finishes, tested to guarantee perfect fit and mechanical stability. The artisanal quality of our straps further enhances the proportions and aesthetic philosophy of this timepiece.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on tanning method, material quality, and intensity of use. An alligator or shell cordovan strap with vegetable tanning can last 5-10 years or longer, developing an elegant patina over time. Premium calf offers 3-7 years of daily use. Exposure to moisture, perspiration, and sunlight accelerates natural leather wear. Regular maintenance with specialist balms and cleaners significantly extends the strap's lifespan.
