Strap for Presence Automatic 30 PVD Gold / White / Bracelet

The lug width of the Longines Presence L4.322.2.12.7 is exactly 16mm. This measurement is specific to smaller diameter watches and is compatible with all 16mm straps offered by Milano Straps. To verify the measurement, measure the internal distance between the two lugs using a ruler.

For a dress watch such as the Presence, alligator is the most formal and elegant choice, with a natural texture that contrasts beautifully with the brushed steel case. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf offers natural ageing and develops patina over time, or an FKM rubber strap for a more versatile and sporty aesthetic. The choice depends on primary use: office, formal occasions, or daily wear.

Changing the strap requires a small spring bar tool to release the fasteners that anchor the strap to the lugs. Position the tool in the small lateral slot of the spring bar and gently push to free the strap. This operation is straightforward, but if you prefer professional assistance, Casati Milano can help you directly in the atelier by appointment.

Yes, 16mm aftermarket straps are fully compatible with the Longines Presence L4.322.2.12.7, provided the lug width is verified. Milano Straps offers a complete collection of 16mm straps in premium materials (alligator, calf, rubber, fabric), customizable in length, initials and stitching thread. Compatibility is guaranteed at 100% with no modifications required.

Durability depends on the quality of the leather and frequency of use: a high-quality alligator strap with vegetable tanning lasts 5-7 years with moderate daily wear, developing natural patina. Vegetable-tanned calf evolves more rapidly in colour, lasting equally long but showing more evident signs of ageing. With proper maintenance (drying if wet, annual conditioning), longevity extends significantly. Casati Milano guarantees 18 months on craftsmanship.
