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

The lug width of the Longines Record L2.321.5.59.7 is 20 millimetres. This width is specific to the elegant proportions of the 30-millimetre case. To verify compatibility, measure the distance between the two spring bar terminals (the fixing pins) using a ruler positioned inside the case.

For the stainless steel and rose gold configuration, we recommend a black alligator strap with fine grain, which enhances formality without competing with the case's chromatic play. Alternatively, calf leather with vegetable tanning in dark brown or grey taupe offers a more contemporary and less severe aesthetic.

Use a spring bar removal tool to gently extract the spring bar terminals from the case holes. Position the tool in the pin's groove, apply gentle upward pressure and the pin should snap out. Repeat on both sides, then insert the new strap by aligning the pins and pressing until they click into place.

Yes, provided the strap has a 20-millimetre lug width and appropriate total length for your wrist. High-quality artisanal aftermarket straps offer the opportunity to customise leather type, colour, buckle and finishes while maintaining exact mechanical compatibility with the Longines case.

A high-quality artisanal leather strap typically lasts 3-5 years with daily wear, depending on the material (alligator, calf, shell cordovan develop different patina and resistance) and maintenance. Constant exposure to sunlight, perspiration and humidity accelerates wear; regular maintenance (gentle cleaning, seasonal conditioning) significantly extends the strap's lifespan.
