Strap for Da Vinci Perpetual Rattrapante Rose Gold / Silver / English

The lug width is 20 mm. This measurement represents the proportional balance for a case diameter of 41.50 mm. To verify it, measure the free space between the two ends of the lugs: the result must be 20.00 ± 0.10 mm. All straps from the 20mm collection of Milano Straps are compatible with this model.

For the rose gold version, alligator is the historical choice: deep grain, ability to develop patina over time, and constructive density that supports the case weight without sagging. Cognac alligator creates chromatic continuity with the gold, while dark alligator (teak brown or black) offers elegant contrast. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calfskin in warm tones (tobacco, caramel) breathes better in summer and ages beautifully.

Position the watch with the lugs facing upward. Locate the spring bars that secure the strap to the lugs. Use a spring bar tool to gently press the lateral hook of the pin, releasing the tension. Remove the old strap, insert the new one by aligning the lug holes, press the pin until you hear the locking click. Verify that the pin is fully inserted on both sides.

Yes, provided the strap is sized for 20 mm lug width. Handcrafted straps in alligator, calfskin or shell cordovan from Milano Straps are built with precise tolerances that guarantee perfect fit on the Da Vinci lugs. The important thing is to verify that the curve of the strap head adapts to the case geometry—Milano Straps straps for 20mm are designed for dress-sport cases of this diameter.

Durability depends on frequency of use, tanning method, and environmental conditions. A superior quality vegetable-tanned alligator strap lasts 4-7 years in daily use; vegetable-tanned calfskin between 3-5 years. Continuous exposure to sun accelerates aging, while summer humidity reduces service life. Milano Straps straps come with an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects. To maximize durability, rotate the strap (at least 2-3 straps in rotation) and store them in a dry environment away from direct light.
