Strap for Tangaroa Three-Hands Lady Bracelet

The procedure requires specific tools: two quality spring bar tools, to prevent scratching the case. Position the watch on a soft anti-scratch surface. Insert the tool into the lower lateral hole of the case lug, gently pushing outward to compress the internal spring of the pin. Extract the pin and repeat on the other side. Insert the pins of the new strap into the holes, ensuring the case spring correctly engages the pin. Perform the reverse procedure for the opposite side. Verify that the strap is securely fastened before wearing the watch.

The lifespan of a natural leather strap varies according to material, intensity of use, and maintenance. A high-quality vegetable-tanned calf strap, worn daily with moderate exposure to humidity and heat, maintains structural integrity and elasticity for 3–5 years. A durable alligator strap can exceed 7–10 years with periodic maintenance (gentle cleaning with a damp cloth, application of natural conditioner). Shell cordovan, notably durable, develops a noble patina for 10+ years. Avoiding aggressive cleaning and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight significantly extends aesthetic and functional longevity.
