Strap for Reverso Tribute Saam Comes to Alburz

The lug width of the Reverso Q39334S3 is precisely 20mm. This measurement represents the external distance between the two lugs of the case that accommodate straps. It is critical to verify this with a digital calliper before ordering an aftermarket strap, as even a 1mm difference causes friction on the lugs or excessive play. All Casati Milano straps for this model are manufactured to 20mm specifications.

Dark brown or honey alligator is the most aesthetically coherent choice: the natural directional grain of alligatorids perfectly complements the rectangular geometry of the case. A sophisticated alternative is vegetable-tanned calf leather, which develops natural patina over time. For daily versatility, a cotton-nylon NATO in grey or navy blue is exceptionally practical. Atelier Casati Milano recommends an in-person consultation to physically handle materials and visualise the pairings.

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool: insert the tip of the tool into the small lateral holes of each lug to compress the internal spring, releasing the old strap. Then insert the new 20mm strap onto the lugs, pressing until you hear the spring click into position. Do not apply excessive force to avoid damage. If you are uncertain, Casati Milano offers this service free of charge during an in-atelier consultation.

Any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with the Q39334S3. On milanostraps.it you will find a dedicated collection of artisanal 20mm straps in various materials (alligator, calf, shell cordovan, nato, rubber). Casati Milano also produces bespoke commissions: you can select leather, colour, buckle and strap width during an in-atelier consultation.

Longevity depends on material and usage. A good-quality alligator or vegetable-tanned calf strap lasts 3–5 years with daily wear, up to 8–10 years if rotated with other straps. Vegetable tanning develops fascinating patina that extends aesthetic life. Casati Milano straps are covered by an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects. After the first year, minor wear near the buckle is normal. Professional reconditioning by specialist artisans (re-dyeing, re-stitching) can extend life by a further 2–3 years.
