Strap for Venturer Small Seconds, Red Gold, Ardoise Dial

The lug width of the H. Moser & Cie Venturer 2327-0402 is 20mm. This measurement refers to the width of the strap that attaches to the lugs of the case. It is important to verify the compatibility of your strap with this specific lug width before purchase, using a digital calliper to measure the distance between the two spring bar holes on the case.

For the Venturer 2327-0402, we recommend a strap in alligator or vegetable-tanned calf leather, which harmonises perfectly with the minimalist aesthetic of the watch. Alligator with natural patina emphasises the simplicity of the smoked dial, whilst calf leather develops a unique patina over time. For a more sporting approach, a cotton NATO strap or a natural rubber option guarantees versatility whilst maintaining elegance.

To change the strap, remove the watch from your wrist and position the case on a soft surface. Use a spring bar tool to gently push inward one of the elastic pins that hold the strap in place. Once the spring bar is freed from one side, slide the strap out of the case. Insert the new 20mm strap by following the reverse path, ensuring that both spring bars click securely into their recesses on the case lugs.

Yes, any aftermarket strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with the Venturer 2327-0402. Artisanal straps offer the opportunity to personalise the appearance of your watch with materials of excellent quality, such as alligator, vegetable-tanned calf, shell cordovan or natural rubber. Always ensure that the strap is specifically designed for the 20mm lug width.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the quality of the material and conditions of use. A high-quality alligator or vegetable-tanned calf strap can last 3–5 years in daily wear, developing a natural patina that increases its aesthetic appeal. Prolonged exposure to moisture or excessive heat shortens the lifespan. Appropriate treatment with natural waxes and periodic maintenance can significantly extend the useful life of the strap.
