Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Longines Lyre L4.359.2.32.2?
The lug width is precisely 16 millimetres. This measurement should be verified using a digital calliper, positioning it inside the lug between the two attachment points of the metal bar. This specific dimension characterises the model and determines compatibility with aftermarket watch straps.
Which strap is recommended for the Longines Lyre L4.359.2.32.2?
To preserve the elegant proportions of the 32mm case, we recommend alligator with grain texture (honey or dark brown tones) or vegetable-tanned calf leather. Alligator intensifies the formal rigour of the geometric lines; calf leather offers more contemporary visual fluidity. Both must be watchmaking-grade quality with thickness calibrated for 16mm lugs.
How do you change the strap on the Longines Lyre L4.359.2.32.2?
The strap is changed by removing the spring bars that connect the strap to the case lugs. Use a dedicated spring bar tool to gently compress the bar and extract the strap with care. Insert the new strap by aligning the bars with the lug guides and verify they are securely fastened.
Is there a compatible aftermarket strap for the Longines Lyre L4.359.2.32.2?
Yes. Milano Straps offers a selection of artisanal 16mm straps in various materials (alligator, calf, vegetable-tanned leather). All are customisable in size, colour and stitching thread, and are delivered ready to mount. Alternatively, Casati Milano creates bespoke straps with direct consultation.
What is the average lifespan of a leather strap for the Longines Lyre L4.359.2.32.2?
A leather strap of watchmaking quality, with vegetable tanning or alligator construction, has an average lifespan of 3 to 5 years with regular use. Longevity depends on frequency of wear, exposure to moisture and maintenance. Milano Straps guarantees 18 months on Casati Milano bespoke straps; renewal is straightforward as the lug width remains constant.
