Strap for Record 30mm Stainless Steel / Pink Gold / Black-Diamond / Alligator

The lug width of the Longines Record L2.321.5.57.2 is 20 millimetres. This measurement represents the distance between the lugs (metal attachments on the case) where the strap is fitted. It is crucial for selecting compatible straps and ensuring mechanical stability and aesthetic harmony.

For the two-tone stainless steel and rose gold case of 30mm, we recommend alligator straps in dark brown or cognac, which enhance the precious tone of the case. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf leather or shell cordovan offers durability and develops natural patina over time. Avoid cool tones that clash with rose gold.

Strap replacement requires a specific tool (spring bar tool) to push the pins holding the previous strap. It is advisable to seek assistance from a watchmaker if you lack experience, to avoid scratching the case or damaging the dial during the operation.

A high-quality leather strap (alligator, calf or shell cordovan) with artisanal stitching has an average lifespan of 3-5 years with daily wear. Longevity depends on frequency of wear, leather care and quality of craftsmanship. Vegetable-tanned straps age particularly well aesthetically, developing a patina that enhances their value over time.
