Strap for Ventura Quartz 32.3 PVD / Black

The Hamilton Ventura H24401731 features a lug width of exactly 17 mm. This measurement should be taken from inside to inside of the lug seats on the case, without forcing the calliper. Accuracy is essential when ordering a compatible strap.

The choice depends on intended use: an alligator strap with defined grain emphasises the geometric elegance of the tonneau case; vegetable-tanned calf leather develops natural patina over time and is ideal for daily wear; a canvas NATO strap creates period-correct aesthetic balance without excess. We advise against heavily patterned rubber straps on this model.

The strap is secured by two metal lugs positioned at the sides of the case. To remove it, use a spring bar tool (with a flat tip) to gently depress the internal spring of the lug, then extract the original strap. Insert the new strap (always 17 mm width) ensuring the lug clicks into its seat. No specialist tools required.

Yes, all straps with a 17 mm lug width are compatible with the H24401731. We recommend artisanal straps in vegetable-tanned leather or alligator to maintain aesthetic coherence with the case's proportioned geometry. Avoid straps with oversized details or disproportionate buckles.

A quality leather strap, vegetable-tanned, worn daily, typically lasts 2–4 years before replacement becomes necessary. Longevity depends on frequency of wear, ambient humidity, and care: periodically conditioning the leather with specialist products extends its lifespan. Higher-quality straps develop a compelling patina over time.
