Strap for Squad Watch Mojave / Stainless steel / Black

The Laco Squad Watches 862109 features a lug width of 20mm, which is the distance between the two metal lugs on the case. This is a specialised measurement that falls outside the most common standards (18mm, 22mm), meaning any replacement strap must be specifically designed for this width. An imprecise measurement would result in unwanted micro-movements and strap slippage.

The choice depends on intended use: for formal contexts, an alligator or vegetable-tanned calf leather strap maintains German elegance; for tactical applications, a heavy-duty canvas NATO is authentic and reliable; for daily versatility, a dark calf leather strap develops natural patina over time. All pairings require a compatible 20mm lug width.

Strap replacement is performed through the lateral lugs of the case. Use a springbar tool to compress the internal metal pin at the lug, removing the old strap. Insert the new 20mm strap ensuring both ends are securely locked into the pin. The operation requires precision to avoid scratching the stainless steel case.

Yes, milanostraps.it offers a curated selection of artisanal 20mm straps compatible with the Laco Squad Watches 862109: crafted in leather (alligator, calf), structured rubber and technical fabrics such as NATO and cordura. All straps are ready to ship and customisable online according to your preferences.

A high-quality leather strap (alligator, vegetable-tanned calf) has an average lifespan of 3-5 years with intensive daily use. Durability depends on frequency of sun exposure, humidity, perspiration and maintenance. Regular maintenance with specific creams and protection from extreme climates significantly extends the strap's lifespan.
