Strap for Evidenza 26 Automatic Diamond

The Evidenza L2.142.0.70.2 features a lug width of 14mm, which is specific to this model and corresponds to the internal spacing between the two lug attachment points on the case. It is essential to verify this dimension before purchasing a compatible strap to ensure proper fit.

The ideal strap depends on intended use: for formal contexts, we recommend black alligator with stainless steel deployante, which enhances classical elegance. For daily wear, fine-grained vegetable-tanned leather offers versatility and natural patina development over time. For smart-casual use, black rubber ensures excellent grip and scratch resistance whilst maintaining the case's minimalist aesthetic.

Strap replacement is performed via the spring bars on the lugs. Acquire a dedicated strap removal tool or consult a professional: position the horizontal pin above the lug, apply pressure to compress the internal spring, and slide the pin out of its housing. Repeat for the opposite lug, then insert the new strap by reversing this procedure.

Technically yes, provided the strap is genuinely 14mm, but we strongly recommend strap designs specific to the Evidenza. The tonneau case features particular geometry and narrow lugs that require straps engineered to complement the original proportions. Generic straps may not fit perfectly within the case curves, creating visible gaps.

A quality leather strap—alligator or vegetable-tanned calf—typically lasts 3–5 years with moderate daily wear. Longevity depends on intensity of use, maintenance, and environmental conditions. A rubber strap is more durable (5–7 years), though elasticity diminishes over time. Milano Straps guarantees 18 months on bespoke straps crafted by Casati Milano atelier.
