Strap for PanoMatic Lunar Stainless Steel / Green / Synthetic

The Pano features a lug width of precisely 20mm, measured between the two lateral pins that protrude from the case. A compatible strap must have an inner passage width of 20mm to sit properly on the lugs without excessive play. When sourcing an aftermarket strap, always verify this specification before purchase.

For the Pano, we recommend genuine alligator with tight grain for a formal aesthetic, vegetable-tanned calf leather for natural patination, or cotton NATO for more informal interpretations. Butadiene rubber is the most durable option if the watch is worn in aquatic environments. Your choice should reflect intended use and preferred colour palette.

Strap replacement requires a precision tool called a spring bar tool. Position the flat end of the tool in the small lateral hole of the lug to press the spring pin inward, allowing it to slide free from its housing. Once released from both sides, the old strap separates from the case. Align the new strap's passages with the lugs, then reinsert the pins using the same technique. This operation takes less than one minute once manual dexterity is acquired.

Yes. Any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible, provided the passages are wide enough to accommodate the lug without excessive pressure. We recommend straps from European manufacturers—such as those offered by milanostraps.it—that observe manufacturing tolerances and feature stainless steel finishes (buckle, deployante) for aesthetic coherence with the case.

A high-quality leather strap—alligator or vegetable-tanned calf—typically lasts 5-8 years with daily wear, provided it remains dry and protected from prolonged moisture. The patina that develops over time indicates proper leather ageing. Rubber, conversely, maintains structural integrity for 10-12 years. Strap wear does not compromise the watch; it represents the opportune moment for seasonal rotation to a fresh strap.
