Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Longines DolceVita L5.155.4.84.6?
The lug width is 15mm. This measurement is specific to the DolceVita model and is precisely calculated to maintain the visual harmony of a slender, elegant case. You can verify this by measuring the internal distance between the case lugs with a digital calliper.
What strap would you recommend for the Longines DolceVita L5.155.4.84.6?
To maintain the elegant and formal aesthetic, we recommend black or dark brown alligator, or natural shell cordovan in burgundy-red tones. Those preferring sustainability may choose vegetable-tanned calf leather, which develops a natural patina over time. All options are backed by an 18-month warranty from Casati Milano.
How do you change the strap on a Longines DolceVita L5.155.4.84.6?
The strap is changed via spring bars that pass through the 15mm lug width. Using a dedicated tool (also available from Casati Milano), compress the lateral spring of the bar to remove the old strap and insert the new one. It is advisable not to force the process to avoid damage to the lugs.
Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the Longines DolceVita L5.155.4.84.6?
Yes, it is essential that the strap is constructed for a 15mm lug width. Online you will find ready-to-ship straps at milanostraps.it, customisable in size, initials and stitching thread colour. For a completely bespoke experience, Casati Milano creates made-to-measure straps with direct selection of leathers.
How long does a leather strap last on a watch like the DolceVita?
Durability depends on leather quality and frequency of use. Alligator and shell cordovan typically last 5-7 years with regular daily wear. Vegetable-tanned calf leather can achieve the same lifespan. Casati Milano straps include an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects; natural leather wear is considered patina and aesthetic heritage of the strap.
