Strap for Record 40mm Stainless Steel / Pink Gold / Silver / Bracelet

The Longines Record L2.821.5.72.7 features a lug width of 20mm, which is the standard for 40mm watches in this range. Measurement is taken between the two lugs without forcing. A tolerance of ±0.5mm is generally acceptable.

For the two-tone rose gold and stainless steel version, we recommend alligator leather in cognac brown or shell cordovan with reddish undertones. These materials enhance the warmth of rose gold without chromatic competition. Navy vitello is ideal for daily wear in business casual contexts.

The Longines Record uses standard straight spring bars of 20mm. Obtain a spring bar tool, remove the old strap by pushing the pin downward with the tool tip, extract the pin, and insert the new strap, aligning it correctly. Avoid forcing to prevent scratching the case.

Yes, all straps catalogued for 20mm lug width are compatible with the Record L2.821.5.72.7. The online catalogue includes alligator, shell cordovan, vitello and rubber. For customisation needs (size, initials, stitching), the Casati Milano atelier creates made-to-measure straps with an 18-month warranty.

Durability depends on material and usage. Alligator and shell cordovan (quality tanning) last 3-5 years with daily use and proper maintenance (avoid prolonged moisture). Standard vitello lasts 2-3 years. Casati Milano straps include an 18-month warranty on all materials.
