Frequently asked questions
Can you fit a standard strap to the Girard-Perregaux Laureato 81070-21-001-FB6A?
No, the bracelet is integrated into the case. There are no traditional spring bar lugs—a standard strap simply won't attach. The only option is to have a bespoke strap built directly onto your watch, which I do in the atelier.
How does a bespoke strap work for the Laureato?
I work by appointment only at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, via XX Settembre 15. I measure your case directly, study the junction, and hand-model the leather to achieve millimetre-perfect integration with the original titanium without forcing anything.
Which leather do you recommend for the Girard-Perregaux Laureato?
I favour sporty-elegant leather with semi-fluid finishing: it has the technical integrity titanium deserves, yet breathes and follows the wrist without stiffness. On such a geometrically precise watch, I'd avoid overly textured or elaborate leathers. Simplicity honours the architecture.
How long does a well-made strap last?
Five to ten years of daily wear, depending on how you care for it. Fine leather ages, patinas, develops character. That's not decay—that's soul emerging. With occasional cleaning and protection from constant moisture, it changes in appearance but endures.
Why is the Laureato so particular in terms of styling?
Designed in 1975, its octagonal case with faceted bezel isn't decorative detail—it's the watch's language itself. It demands respect for geometry. A strap for the Laureato isn't an accessory; it's part of its architecture. That's why I build it with artisan care, not as simple replacement.
The next step
The right strap isn't chosen. It is built, together.
From the atelier appointment to delivery, every step is made for those who know that things done well take time. Rare leathers, one piece at a time, eighteen months of warranty.
