Strap for Purist Typ 2 Stainless Steel / Blue

The Purist Type 2 P2NB-LB features a 20mm lug width, which is the standard measurement for mid-to-large diameter wristwatches. This dimension ensures optimal proportional coherence between the 40mm case and the wrist, and guarantees proper strap compatibility.

Given the minimalist philosophy and stainless steel case, we recommend alligator leather in cognac or dark brown for classical elegance, or vegetable-tanned calf leather for those seeking natural ageing and patina development. Grey graphite NATO fabric offers sportive versatility while maintaining formal simplicity.

Use a spring bar tool (thin-bladed implement) to gently compress the internal elastic pin within the lug. Insert the blade into the small lateral hole of the pin, apply compression, and remove the old strap. Repeat for the opposite lug. Position the new strap by aligning it with the pins and release the mechanism.

Yes, any quality strap with certified 20mm lugs is compatible with the P2NB-LB. We recommend verifying that leather thickness (approximately 3-4mm) does not interfere with the case passants and that any buckle is proportionate to the case dimensions.

A quality artisanal leather strap with vegetable tanning typically lasts 3-5 years with daily wear. Longevity depends on ambient humidity, sun exposure, and maintenance practices. Storing the watch in a dry environment at night, avoiding prolonged moisture, and occasionally applying dedicated leather conditioners significantly extends strap lifespan.
