Strap for Ventura Elvis Anniversary
Integrated bracelet: measurements, the most common questions, and the way to a made-to-measure strap.
Integrated bracelet
The Hamilton Ventura H24481731 is designed with a bracelet integrated into the case. For a compatible made-to-measure strap, the Casati Milano atelier builds it on your watch.

Frequently asked questions
Can I fit a standard strap on the Hamilton Ventura H24481731?
No, the bracelet is integrated into the case and the lug doesn't accept standard straps. I've seen many attempts fail. For this model, I build the strap custom, shaped to the unique geometry of your case.
How does the custom strap process work for the Ventura?
I work only at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, by appointment. I take measurements directly from the case, study the triangular angle, and build the strap that integrates perfectly. It's the only way I know to do it right with this watch.
Which leather do you recommend for the Hamilton Ventura?
I prefer sturdy yet elegant leather: chromexcel or aged English veal. This model has a sport-refined character and won't tolerate fragile or delicate skins. The leather must match the bold shape of the case.
How long does a well-made strap last?
With quality leather and thoughtful use, 6–8 years comfortably. It depends on how you treat it: I let it breathe, don't soak it, hydrate it once in a while. Good leather ages well—it actually tells a story on your case over time.
Why is the Ventura so different from other watches?
Richard Arbib designed an asymmetrical triangular form in 1957—it was the first battery watch, and the case still defies any conventional aesthetic today. It's not a round, classic watch. It demands respect in a strap, one that understands the audacity of the design.
The next step
The right strap isn't chosen. It is built, together.
