Frequently asked questions
Can I use an aftermarket strap on this Longines?
Yes, you can use aftermarket straps provided they respect the 12mm lug width specification. Custom straps from artisans like Casati Milano offer superior quality, selected leathers and personalisation options (monogramming, stitching choice). Compatibility verification is recommended before purchase.
How long does a leather strap last on a watch like this?
A quality leather strap on a Longines Présence L4.220.4.72.6 typically lasts 3-5 years with daily wear, accounting for humidity and sunlight exposure. With regular maintenance (liquid protection and annual conditioning), longevity can extend to 7-8 years. Leather develops patina and softens over time, enhancing overall aesthetics.
