Strap for Endurance Neptun2 - Leather strap

The lug width of the Limes Endurance is 22mm. This measurement represents the distance between the lugs that attach the strap to the case. It is essential to verify this measurement when purchasing an aftermarket strap to ensure physical compatibility and structural integrity.

The ideal strap depends on daily use and aesthetic preferences. For a vintage-industrial atmosphere, a vegetable-tanned Tuscan leather in tobacco tonality is the optimal choice. For formal applications, polished black alligator emphasises the elegance of the case. For intensive use and humid environments, a technical textile NATO guarantees durability and straightforward maintenance.

Changing the strap requires the use of a dedicated tool called a spring bar tool. Position the watch on a stable surface, identify the case lugs (visible on the sides of the lug width), and gently push the pins outward using the spring bar tool. Subsequently, insert the new strap by aligning the pins with the respective slots and press until you hear a click confirming secure installation. It is advisable to perform this operation with care to avoid damage to the case.

Yes, any strap manufactured with a standard 22mm lug width is compatible with the Limes Endurance U8777-LA3.1. Milano Straps offers a dedicated collection of 22mm straps in different materials (leather, alligator, NATO, rubber), selected for construction quality and aesthetic harmony with the model.

The durability of a leather strap depends on the intensity of use, environmental conditions, and the construction quality of the material. A high-quality calf leather subjected to moderate use will develop a desirable patina and maintain structural functionality for 3-5 years. An alligator or shell cordovan strap, thanks to superior fibre density, will extend durability to 7-10 years. Constant exposure to moisture, perspiration, and mechanical stress will significantly reduce longevity.
