Strap for Lyre 25 Automatic PVD Gold / Champagne / Bracelet

The lug width (also called lug spacing) of the Longines Lyre L4.360.2.32.8 is 13 mm. This measurement is critical for selecting a compatible strap: measure the distance between the two lugs on the case using a calliper or rigid ruler, positioning the tool between the internal bases. The 13 mm specification ensures a precise fit with our artisanal straps, avoiding excessive play or constraint.

For the 25 mm Lyre, we recommend black or dark brown alligator, which reflects the understated sophistication of this timepiece. Alligator develops an elegant patina over time, and the natural grain creates perfect visual contrast with the brushed steel case. For daily wear, vegetable-tanned calf leather offers lasting comfort and deep grain. Cotton NATO straps are ideal for the summer months. All our models are available with 13 mm lug width.

The Longines Lyre uses a spring bar attachment system. To remove the strap: 1) Obtain a spring bar tool or flat toothpick; 2) Position the tip under one spring bar; 3) Press gently inward to release the pin; 4) Extract the old strap; 5) Insert the new strap, aligning the holes with the lugs; 6) Push until the pin clicks into position. The operation takes 2–3 minutes per side. If you prefer, our services include professional installation by appointment at the Casati Milano atelier.

Yes, any strap with a 13 mm lug width is compatible with the Lyre. Our Milano Straps artisanal straps are made-to-order for this width and use premium materials (alligator, calf, shell cordovan, FKM rubber) ensuring quality superior to OEM straps. Always verify that the lug width is exactly 13 mm before ordering. We also offer bespoke services through the Casati Milano atelier, featuring personal leather selection and customisation to your style preferences.

A vegetable-tanned leather strap guarantees 3–5 years of regular daily wear, developing personalised patina over time. Alligator, being reptile leather with denser fibres, is more durable and can last 5–7 years. Longevity depends on: frequency of use, climate conditions (humidity damages leather), sun exposure (causes fading), and maintenance (apply balm every 6 months). Cotton NATO straps last 4–6 years with daily wear. All our straps include an 18-month warranty and repair/buckle replacement services at the Casati Milano atelier.
