Strap for Grande Seconde 39 Meteorite Diamond / Red Gold

The Jaquet Droz Grande Seconde J014013223 features a lug width of 19 mm. This dimension is determined by the distance between the inner lugs of the case and is essential for ensuring correct compatibility with straps specifically manufactured to this specification. Measurement is performed using a digital calliper positioned between the two attachment points on the case.

For the Grande Seconde J014013223 in red gold, vegetable-tanned alligator represents the most discerning choice from both aesthetic and material perspectives. The natural texture of the leather dialogues perfectly with light reflected by the rose gold, creating a luminous effect that amplifies the perception of discreet luxury. Shell cordovan is an exceptional alternative, developing an extraordinary dark patina over the years.

Strap replacement is performed using a spring bar tool (a specific device for removing and installing lugs). Gently compress the small internal metal pin on the lug to release the strap from the case lug, then insert the new strap by aligning the holes within the passants. Important: the lug width is 19 mm, so verify compatibility before purchase.

Yes, all straps with a 19 mm lug width are compatible with the Jaquet Droz Grande Seconde J014013223. At Milano Straps you will find artisanally crafted straps in alligator, shell cordovan, calf leather, NATO and rubber, specifically manufactured in this width and ready for shipment. You can customise your material and colour choice online.

A high-quality leather strap (alligator, shell cordovan, vegetable-tanned calf) maintains optimal functionality for 3–5 years of regular use, with variability depending on exposure to UV rays, ambient humidity and frequency of use. Leather develops a natural patina over the years, increasing the aesthetic value of the watch-strap ensemble. NATO and vulcanised rubber straps have a potentially longer lifespan, up to 7–10 years.
