Strap for Conquest Chronograph 42 Stainless Steel / Black / Bracelet

The Longines Conquest L3.835.4.52.6 features a 22mm lug width. This measurement is essential for aftermarket strap compatibility and must be verified by measuring the space between the case lugs. Any strap with a different width (20mm or 24mm) will not fit correctly.

For a sports chronograph of this calibre, we recommend genuine alligator with vegetable tanning (defined grain and natural patina), or full-saturation calf leather in dark brown or burgundy for those seeking aesthetic ageing. Both materials preserve the model's technical identity without formal compromise.

The strap is removed via the spring bars that connect it to the lugs. Using a small dedicated tool or stylus tip, compress the spring bar towards the opposite side to free the strap end from its housing. Once released, the strap slides out horizontally. The operation takes approximately 2-3 minutes per side.

Yes. The 22mm straps for the Conquest L3.835.4.52.6 can be customised in length on both the upper (wrist) and lower (buckle) sections, ensuring precise fit. Milano Straps also offers online personalisation of initials and stitching thread choice.

A quality vegetable-tanned leather strap, with traditional tanning, typically lasts 4-6 years of daily wear, provided exposure to excessive moisture is avoided. On a sports instrument like the Conquest L3.835.4.52.6, environmental factors are significant: sweat, chlorine and saltwater accelerate ageing. Casati Milano provides 18-month warranty and support for extensions.
