Strap for Presence 34.5 Automatic Pink Gold

The lug width is exactly 19 millimetres. This measurement is specific to the 34.50mm Presence and is uncommon in contemporary watchmaking, requiring artisanal straps to be fully appreciated.

For this rose gold model we recommend alligator in dark brown or ebony, or vegetable-tanned calf leather in cognac, burgundy or navy blue. These materials create elegant contrasts with rose gold and develop natural patina over time. Sports straps or rubber are discouraged, as they would contradict the dress character of the Presence.

Extract the two springbars (lugs) connecting the strap to the case using a removable springbar tool or dedicated instrument. Some models have spring-loaded bars: exert gentle inward pressure to release them. Insert the new strap by aligning the lugs with the case holes and snap the bars into place. Ensure proper alignment as the 19mm lug width tolerates no geometric errors.

Yes, absolutely. Milanostraps.it offers 19mm straps compatible with the same Longines L4.778.8.11.0. Artisanal straps in alligator, calf or other premium leathers are often superior to the original strap in both quality and colour personalisation. Consult the Casati Milano atelier for bespoke craftsmanship.

A quality leather strap (alligator or vegetable-tanned calf) lasts 3-7 years with daily wear, depending on sun exposure, perspiration and humidity. Casati Milano straps are guaranteed for 18 months against manufacturing defects. Investing in duplicate straps allows you to rotate them and preserve them longer.
