Strap for Anomaly-02 Stainless Steel / Black

The lug width of the CODE41 Anomaly-02 AN02-IN-BK-ST-BR is 24mm. This measurement represents the distance between the two lugs of the case where the spring bars attach the strap. It is a critical specification to ensure compatibility with aftermarket straps and allows complete personalisation of the timepiece.

The best strap depends on intended use. For formal settings, a black or deep brown alligator creates sophisticated contrast with the satin-finished steel. For daily wear, vegetable-tanned calf offers natural patina development and sustainability. For sports and humid environments, nylon NATO in grey or black ensures absolute practicality. All available in 24mm size.

The strap is changed by extracting the spring bars that anchor it to the case lugs. Using a dedicated tool (spring bar tool), gently compress the bar and remove it from the slot. Insert the new strap onto the bars and reinsert into the opposite slot. The operation takes approximately two minutes and requires no specialised tools.

Yes, the 24mm lug width is standardised and provides access to a vast catalogue of artisanal straps. Milano Straps offers a dedicated collection of 24mm straps in alligator, calf, shell cordovan, vegetable-tanned leather, NATO and FKM rubber. All straps are immediately compatible and customisable according to colour preferences.

A quality leather strap (alligator, shell cordovan, vegetable-tanned calf) typically lasts 3-5 years with daily wear, with variation depending on climate, frequency of wear and tanning method. Leather ages naturally, developing patina and colour shifts that constitute part of its appeal. Maintenance with dedicated creams and limited exposure to direct moisture extends overall lifespan.
