Strap for Lyre 25 Stainless Steel / White

The lug width of the Longines Lyre L4.360.4.12.2 is 13mm. This measurement represents the space between the lugs of the case and is determinant for strap compatibility. Always ensure that the strap you choose is specifically manufactured for the 13mm lug width, as straps of different widths would alter the aesthetic and functional balance of the timepiece.

The ideal strap for the Longines Lyre L4.360.4.12.2 depends on your personal style and intended use. An alligator strap with vegetable tanning is the most sophisticated and timeless choice, enhancing the elegance of the model. A calf leather strap offers chromatic versatility and modernity, whilst a rubber or NATO strap guarantees daily practicality without aesthetic compromise. We recommend matching the material to your anticipated experience with the timepiece.

Strap replacement is performed by removing the spring bars that secure the strap to the case lugs. Use a dedicated spring bar tool or a small lever to gently push the bar towards the case centre, thereby releasing the old strap. Insert the new strap by aligning the holes with the lugs and repeat the operation on the other side. Exercise caution to avoid scratching the case. If uncertain, consult a professional watchmaker.

All straps specifically manufactured for the 13mm lug width are compatible with the Longines Lyre L4.360.4.12.2, irrespective of the manufacturer. Artisanal straps in alligator, calf, rubber, NATO and textile bearing explicit 13mm compatibility will ensure perfect fit. Always verify the technical specifications provided by the manufacturer before purchase.

The longevity of a leather strap depends on tanning quality, daily use and climatic conditions. A high-quality artisanal alligator strap with vegetable tanning, when properly maintained and protected from excessive moisture, typically lasts 3-5 years of regular use. A calf leather strap may provide 2-4 years of service. The 18-month warranty provided by our artisans covers manufacturing defects and offers confidence in construction integrity.
