Strap for Conquest 34 Stainless Steel - Pink Gold / Green / Bracelet

The lug width of the Longines Conquest L3.430.5.02.6 is 17 millimetres. This measurement is taken internally between both lugs, a construction detail that requires specifically dimensioned straps and is not compatible with common standard widths such as 18mm or 20mm.

For the two-tone Conquest in rose gold and stainless steel, we recommend dark brown or burgundy alligator for a formal appearance, or vegetable-tanned calf if you desire a patina that naturally evolves over time. For its sporting vocation, high-density FKM rubber in black maintains versatility and water resistance. Prussian blue with ivory stitching represents an elegant compromise between formality and dynamism.

Strap change is performed using the spring bars located at the case lugs. Obtain a spring bar tool, a small lever that gently compresses the internal spring. Insert the tool from inside, compress until the spring releases, extract the bar completely. Repeat for the opposite lug. Insert the new strap ensuring the spring bars lock correctly in both holes. If you lack the proper tools, Casati Milano offers professional strap-change service in Milan.

Yes, provided they are verified for accuracy: a tolerance of ±0.5mm is acceptable due to the natural elasticity of the metal lugs, but it is essential to measure between the inner shoulders of the lugs with a digital calliper. Milano Straps offers a curated collection of 17mm straps pre-tested for compatibility, eliminating uncertainty and offering easy exchange within the first month if necessary.

Durability depends on leather quality and usage patterns. Premium calf or alligator with vegetable tanning, worn daily under normal conditions, typically lasts 3-5 years before replacement becomes necessary. Protection from excessive water, prolonged sun exposure, and forced creasing significantly extends useful life. Casati Milano guarantees 18 months on all artisanal straps, with the possibility of regeneration through specialised reconditioning services.
