Strap for PrimaLuna Automatic 30 Yellow Gold Strap MOP

The lug width of the Longines PrimaLuna L8.113.6.87.2 is 8 millimetres. This is a non-standard dimension, significantly smaller than the typical 18-22mm found in watchmaking, requiring straps specifically engineered for this reference. Always verify the exact distance between the case lugs before purchasing a replacement strap.

For the PrimaLuna in yellow gold, straps in alligator leather or vegetable-tanned calf are recommended. Pearl grey alligator or cream alligator creates elegant continuity with the gold case; burgundy-black calf leather offers sophisticated contrast whilst ageing naturally. The required lug width is 8mm, available through Milano Straps' artisanal collection.

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool or dedicated lug removal device. Gently insert the tool into the lateral slot of each lug, compress the internal spring, extract the lug from the old strap, then insert the new strap ensuring the springs engage securely within the lug slots. Proceed with care to prevent scratching the yellow gold case.

Only straps with an 8-millimetre lug width are compatible. Milano Straps offers a collection of artisanal 8mm straps customisable in premium materials (alligator, calf, shell cordovan, NATO), with yellow gold deployante option for aesthetic coherence with the case.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on frequency of use, moisture exposure, and construction quality. An artisanal alligator or first-grade vegetable-tanned calf strap maintains aesthetic functionality for 3-5 years in daily wear, developing a desirable patina. Milano Straps' 18-month guarantee covers manufacturing defects. Regular maintenance (sunlight exposure, natural air drying) extends longevity.
