Strap for PanoReserve Red Gold / Silver / Alligator / Folding

The lug width is precisely 20 millimetres. This dimension is specific to the Pano model and has been calculated to maintain the perfect proportions of the 40-millimetre case. Always verify the width with a calliper before purchasing a compatible strap, measuring between the two lugs at their widest point.

A natural alligator strap with horizontal grain is the classical choice: it enhances formal elegance without competing visually with the red gold. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf leather aged over time offers noble patina. For versatility, a quality canvas NATO or natural rubber strap maintains aesthetic dignity.

Strap replacement is executed via the spring bars at the case lugs. Remove the old strap by slightly compressing the spring mechanism on one bar and extracting it. Insert the new spring bars into the lug holes of the new strap, then slide the bar into the case groove until it clicks into place. Verify stability before wearing.

Yes, provided they respect the 20-millimetre lug width specification. MilanoStraps offers a curated selection of artisanal compatible straps in various materials and colours. The key is selecting an strap that generates no mechanical play between the holes and case lugs, preserving structural integrity.

A quality leather strap (alligator or vegetable-tanned calf) typically lasts 3-5 years of regular wear, developing patina and character over time. Longevity depends on climate exposure, ambient humidity and frequency of wear. A natural rubber or NATO strap exhibits greater resilience to external agents and tends to last longer without aesthetic degradation.
