Strap for Anomaly-02 Forged Carbon / Black

The lug width of the CODE41 Anomaly-02 AN02-CA-ST-ALIG-BK is 24 mm, measured between the pins on the case. This dimension allows you to use professional mid-weight straps without adapters or improvised solutions. The depth of the lug grooves is generous, ensuring stable seating even for textured leather or rigid NATO straps.

For the CODE41 Anomaly-02, we recommend alligator straps to enhance the aesthetic contrast with forged carbon, vegetable-tanned calf leather for a patina that evolves over time, or NATO for stylistic coherence. High-density rubber represents the versatile daily option. Your choice depends on the desired colour harmony and intended use.

To change the strap: position the watch with lugs facing upward, locate the elastic pin protruding slightly from the case, press it laterally with a flat tool (strap removal lever or small screwdriver), slide the pin out to remove the old strap. Insert the new strap by aligning the holes with the grooves and reinsert the pin until it clicks into place.

Yes, any quality 24mm aftermarket strap is compatible with the CODE41 Anomaly-02. We recommend verifying leather thickness (at least 1.4 mm) and pin configuration (elastic or fixed) for seamless exchange. Milano Straps artisanal straps are specifically engineered for this width with optimal manufacturing precision.

A high-quality leather strap (alligator or vegetable-tanned calf) lasts 3–5 years with regular daily use, longer if rotated with other straps. Lifespan depends on UV exposure, humidity and frequency of wear. Leather develops natural patina and can be restored with appropriate treatments, extending functional life beyond visible wear.
