Strap for Ventura Elvis80 Auto
Integrated bracelet: measurements, the most common questions, and the way to a made-to-measure strap.
Integrated bracelet
The Hamilton Ventura H24585731 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 H24585731?
No, the bracelet is integrated into the case and the attachment is proprietary — no standard strap will fit. But this isn't a limitation: I craft a bespoke strap directly onto your case geometry, respecting the Ventura's asymmetric shape.
How does the bespoke strap process work for this model?
We work by appointment only at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>. I take measurements directly from your case, study how the leather must adapt to the triangular curve, and build the attachment millimetre by millimetre. It's not an adaptation — it's a piece designed for your watch.
Which leather do I recommend for the Ventura?
I prefer Tuscan leather. This watch has a sporty yet futuristic character — hand-aged leather develops a vintage patina that dialogues well with the steel and bold lines of the case, without overwhelming the design.
How long does a well-made strap last?
With minimal care — a conditioner pass a few times a year — it lasts years. Good leather ages, it doesn't die: it develops colour, becomes softer, tells the story of wear. I've seen ten-year-old straps still in excellent condition.
Why does the Ventura have such a distinctive shape?
Richard Arbib designed it in 1957 as the first electric watch in history. That asymmetric triangulation isn't ornament: it's function, futuristic geometry that reflects the era it was born into. Fitting a bespoke strap means honouring that original vision.
