Strap for Presence 25.5 Automatic Yellow Stick Yellow Bracelet Two Tone

The Longines Presence L4.221.2.42.7 features a 13mm lug width, a specific dimension for this model. It is measured as the distance between the two spring bar pins that support the strap. This uncommon measurement requires dedicated straps to ensure precise fitting without excessive play.

For the Présence we recommend genuine alligator in polished or natural grain finish for formal elegance, or vegetable-tanned calf leather for those who appreciate patina evolution. For daily wear, a quality NATO strap in neutral tones maintains the model's proportions without visual heaviness.

Use a spring bar tool (available at jewellers or online) to extract the small pins that hold the strap inside the case. Apply gentle pressure to one side to release the pin. Insert the new strap by aligning its lug holes with the pins and press until you hear a click.

Yes, provided the lug width is exactly 13mm. Milano Straps offers artisanal straps compatible with this model, crafted to specific measurements. Always verify lug width before purchase to avoid incompatibility.

A quality leather strap typically lasts 2-3 years with regular daily wear, depending on climate, perspiration, and frequency of use. Vegetable-tanned leather patinas and stiffens slightly over time. Milano Straps straps come with an 18-month warranty; natural wear damage is considered part of the leather's aesthetic evolution.
