Strap for Record 26mm Stainless Steel / Pink Gold / White-Roman / Alligator

The lug width of the Longines Record L2.320.5.11.2 is 18 millimetres. This measurement represents the distance between the inner shoulders of the lugs where the strap attaches to the case. It is essential to verify this measurement before ordering an aftermarket strap to ensure perfect compatibility.

The Longines Record L2.320.5.11.2, with its elegant 26mm two-tone rose gold and steel case, pairs ideally with straps in dark brown alligator, shell cordovan or vegetable-tanned calf leather. For formal occasions, we recommend dark shades—black or deep brown—that do not compete with the case's elegance. For informal wear, intermediate colours such as taupe grey or navy blue maintain the model's sobriety.

To change the strap, remove the watch from your wrist. Use a dedicated spring bar removal tool or consult a watchmaker. Insert the tool into the narrow gap between the strap and the case, compress the internal spring and extract the strap. Repeat on the other side. To fit the new 18mm strap, align the strap holes with the case lugs and press until the spring bar clicks into place.

Yes, 18mm aftermarket straps are fully compatible with the Longines Record L2.320.5.11.2, provided they respect the specified lug width. Verify that the strap has been correctly measured (18mm ±0.5mm is generally acceptable). On milanostraps.it you will find a wide selection of 18mm premium leather straps, fully compatible and customisable according to your preferences.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material and usage. A high-quality alligator or shell cordovan strap, with proper maintenance, can last 3-5 years or longer. Italian calf leather, being softer, typically lasts 2-3 years. Vegetable tanning develops a natural patina over time, improving appearance rather than deteriorating. Avoid prolonged exposure to water and excessive moisture. At milanostraps.it we offer an 18-month warranty on Casati Milano straps, with the option of replacement in case of manufacturing defects.
