Strap for PrimaLuna Automatic 26.5 Two Tone Pink Arabic

The lug width of the Longines PrimaLuna L8.111.5.16.6 is 6mm. This dimension is determined by the distance between the lugs that attach the strap to the case. To verify it, remove the current strap and measure the space between the two lugs: it must be exactly 6mm. This precision is essential when purchasing compatible straps that install without defects.

For the PrimaLuna L8.111.5.16.6, we recommend straps in alligator with vegetable tanning, dark calf leather (tête de Maure), or burgundy, as these enhance the elegance of the diamond bezel and stainless steel case. Alligator is the choice of excellence: the natural, irregular grain amplifies the perception of luxury. Calf leather made with vegetable tanning develops a fascinating patina over time. For a summer aesthetic, a NATO strap in natural linen white maintains freshness without compromising the luxury identity of the timepiece.

To change the strap on your Longines PrimaLuna L8.111.5.16.6: 1) Position the watch horizontally. 2) Locate the small holes at the ends of the case where the pins pass through. 3) Use a punch tool or small flathead screwdriver to gently push the pins from the opposite side. 4) Remove the old strap. 5) Insert the pins of the new strap into the housings and push until you hear a click.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on construction quality and daily use. An artisanal strap in alligator or calf leather with vegetable tanning, if properly cared for, lasts between 5 and 8 years of regular use. Leather fears excessive moisture, prolonged direct sun exposure, and repeated twisting. To extend the life of your strap: avoid prolonged water contact, dry gently if wet, and rotate between multiple straps to distribute wear. Milano Straps and Casati Milano straps are made with robust finishings that age elegantly, developing characteristic patina over time.
