Strap for Conquest V.H.P. 43 Stainless Steel / Ceramic / Silver / Rubber

The lug width of the Longines Conquest V.H.P. L3.729.4.76.9 is 22mm. This measurement refers to the distance between the inner edges of the spring bars that attach the strap to the case. To verify compatibility, measure with callipers the distance between the two lugs: it must be exactly 22mm. Browse our catalogue of compatible straps for this specific width.

For the Longines Conquest V.H.P., we recommend straps crafted from vegetable-tanned leather such as Tuscan calf in tobacco or cognac, or alligator for enhanced elegance. For a more sporty aesthetic, rubber or NATO fabric 22mm straps are excellent choices. The quality of the leather must reflect the technical excellence of the movement: avoid low-quality synthetic materials. The ideal buckle is stainless steel with a deployant clasp for ease of wear.

Changing the strap is a straightforward operation. Place the watch on a soft surface and locate the two spring bars (the side pins that pass through the case lugs). Using a small tool (spring bar tool), gently press inward on one of the pins to release the old strap. Repeat on the other side. Insert the new strap by leveraging the pins until they lock completely. Ensure the strap is perfectly aligned with the lugs. If you feel uncertain, contact our Casati Milano atelier for professional strap replacement.

A quality natural leather strap with vegetable tanning lasts an average of 3–5 years under regular wear, provided it receives proper care: avoid prolonged exposure to water, excessive perspiration and direct heat. The patina that develops over time is a noble characteristic of natural leather. With proper maintenance and periodic cleaning, a Casati Milano strap with 18-month warranty performs exceptionally. To extend the life of the strap, it is recommended to alternate it with a second strap, allowing the leather to breathe between uses.
