Strap for Record 26mm Stainless Steel / Pink Gold / Diamond / MOP-Diamond / Alligator

The Longines Record L2.320.5.89.2 has a lug width of 20mm, which is the distance between the two inner lugs of the case. This is the fundamental measurement for strap compatibility. To verify it with precision, use a digital calliper positioned perpendicular between the two lugs: the reading must be exactly 20mm.

For this classic ladies' timepiece we recommend pressed alligator in dark brown, which naturally complements the rose gold bezel. Alternatively, taurine calf leather in solid tone creates a lighter effect. Both materials support fine artisan finishes well and respect the proportions of a 26mm case.

The strap is changed by removing the two lug pins using a spring bar tool. Position the watch on a soft surface to avoid scratches. Insert the tool under the pin, lift gently, and slide the pin out of the lugs. Repeat for the second side, then install the new strap by reversing the process.

Yes, provided the strap is constructed for 20mm lug width and the ends are finished correctly to fit into the case without forcing. Milanostraps.it straps are bespoke-crafted for this compatibility and guarantee absence of lateral play. We recommend always verifying with the seller before purchase.

A quality leather strap, such as alligator or taurine calf, lasts between 3 and 7 years of daily wear, depending on frequency of use and maintenance. Treating the leather with natural waxes every 12-18 months and drying it after moisture exposure significantly extends durability. The milanostraps warranty is 18 months.
