Strap for Trasmissione Meccanica

The lug width of the TMB06 is 20mm, a measurement determined by the specific geometry of the 43mm case. This dimension corresponds to the physical distance between the attachment pins located on the case back, where the strap connects structurally to the watch.

For the TMB06, we recommend straps in vegetable-tanned leather for developing noble patina over time, genuine alligator for luxury and durability, or shell cordovan for exceptional resilience. NATO straps in satin cotton maintain functional simplicity coherent with the watch's minimalist design.

To change the strap, remove the attachment pins located on the case sides using a dedicated spring bar removal tool. Extract the old strap, then insert the new one by passing the pins through the attachment holes until you hear the locking click. Verify the strap is perfectly aligned before wearing the watch.

Yes, any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with the TMB06. Milano Straps offers a specialised collection of handcrafted 20mm straps in premium materials including vegetable leather, alligator, shell cordovan, NATO, and FKM rubber, customisable according to your colour preferences.

A premium quality leather strap lasts approximately 3-5 years with daily wear and regular maintenance (cleaning and conditioning). Durability increases with shell cordovan straps (5-7 years) due to the natural fibre resilience. NATO straps last 7-10 years. The patina evolves positively over time, enriching the watch's aesthetic appearance.
