Strap for La Grande Classique Quartz 24 Yellow Roman Leather

The lug width is precisely 13 millimetres. This measurement is critical for selecting compatible straps. When measuring with a digital calliper, position the tool between the inner edges of the lugs, ensuring the watch is completely unwound for the most accurate reading.

Selection depends on intended use: alligator with vegetable tanning is the formal choice of excellence, smooth calf offers daily versatility, shell cordovan guarantees extraordinary longevity. For casual environments, sports rubber or NATO straps provide pure practicality. All available in 13mm lug width.

Remove the watch from your wrist. Locate the lug pins on the sides of the case (at 3 and 9 o'clock). Using a spring bar tool, apply gentle downward pressure to one pin to release the end, then fully extract the old strap. Repeat on the other side. Insert the new strap, align the holes to the lugs, and press the pins into position until you hear the click.

Yes, provided the lug width is exactly 13 millimetres. Artisanal quality aftermarket straps often offer superior finishes compared to originals. Always verify compatibility with the retailer before purchase, and use an appropriate spring bar tool to avoid damage to the lugs.

Longevity depends on material and usage. Vegetable-tanned calf resists wear for 3-5 years with daily wear. Alligator lasts 5-7 years. Shell cordovan can exceed 10 years. All Milano Straps carry an 18-month warranty and develop a natural patina that increases character over time.
