Strap for Equestrian Horseshoe 26 Diamond / Arabic

The lug width of the Longines Equestrian L6.136.0.73.2 measures 12mm. This dimension, measured between the two metal protrusions of the case, is characteristic of ladies' models from the 1950s. To verify it, position a digital calliper perpendicular to the case at the height of the internal shoulder of the lug.

Alligator leather dyed in black or dark brown represents the most coherent choice with the equestrian philosophy of the model, directly referencing classical British horse equipment. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf offers a natural patina that becomes increasingly fascinating over time. For longevity, shell cordovan guarantees extraordinary durability and a natural lustre that ages magnificently.

Use a specific tool designed for spring bar attachments. Position it beneath the lower lug, gently push inward to release the spring, then extract the previous strap. Repeat on the other shoulder. Insert the new strap, aligning it correctly, and allow it to snap into position. It is advisable to perform this operation on a soft surface to avoid scratches.

All straps with a 12mm lug width are compatible with the Longines Equestrian L6.136.0.73.2. On milanostraps.it you will find a curated selection of straps in various materials—alligator, calf, shell cordovan, NATO and rubber—customisable in length, initials and stitching colour.

Durability depends on the material and usage. A quality alligator or shell cordovan, with appropriate care, guarantees 3-5 years of regular wear. Vegetable-tanned calf has similar durability if protected from stagnant water. A NATO fabric strap lasts significantly longer. Casati Milano's 18-month warranty covers any manufacturing defects.
