Strap for Presence 25.5 Automatic Stainless Steel / Silver - Mixed / Bracelet

The lug width is 13mm. This measurement represents the distance between the two attachment points of the strap on the case. Always verify this dimension using a digital calliper, measuring the inner centre of both metal springbar pins, to ensure complete compatibility with aftermarket straps.

Premium alligator with fine grain in natural colourways such as medium brown or cognac is ideal, emphasising the compactness of the case. Alternatively, calf leather with vegetable tanning develops personalised patina over time, whilst silk NATO fabric is perfect for professional contexts. Choice depends on usage and personal colour preferences.

Use a springbar tool to compress the small elastic pins holding the strap in place. Position the tool in the two horizontal grooves beneath the case, press inward to release the pins, then remove the old strap. Insert the new one by sliding one end first, then the other, until the pins lock with a slight click. Work carefully on compact watches like this.

Yes, any strap with certified 13mm lug width is compatible. Always verify technical specifications with the seller. Artisanal Milanese straps with this measurement guarantee construction quality equal to or superior to original Longines straps, with options for customisation in leathers, colours and finishes.

A quality leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) typically lasts 3–5 years with daily use and regular maintenance. The understated aesthetics of the Présence allow rotation between 2–3 straps without colour conflicts, extending the life of each. Protect from extreme moisture and clean periodically with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
