Strap for Belluna Sunray Stainless Steel / Blue / Bracelet

The lug width of the Mido Belluna M024.630.11.041.00 is 21mm. This measurement determines the compatibility of all aftermarket straps: always ensure that your chosen strap is certified for this exact dimension, as even minor variations would result in insufficient wrist stability and unreliable seating between the case lugs.

The Mido Belluna is particularly enhanced by alligator or shell cordovan straps for formal occasions, vegetable-tanned calf for versatile versions that develop natural patina over time, and cotton-nylon NATO straps for sporty and casual profiles. The 42.50mm stainless steel case requires generously proportioned straps: we advise against thin or delicate materials that would visually unbalance the case proportions.

The procedure requires specific tools to remove the lugs (spring bars): position your watch on an anti-scratch cloth, use a spring bar tool to gently compress the elastic pin of the lug, and carefully slide the bar outward. Subsequently, position the new strap between the two lugs, ensuring that the elastic pin clicks correctly into place. We recommend working in a well-lit environment and never forcing movements to avoid case damage.

Yes, an extensive range of aftermarket straps compatible with the 21mm lug width is available. You can choose from various material families (leather, rubber, NATO fabric) and colours. What matters is always verifying that the manufacturer certifies 21mm compatibility, as proper fit between strap and lugs is essential for safety and functionality of the watch over time.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on usage and maintenance factors. A high-quality vegetable-tanned calf strap, with moderate use (3-4 times weekly) and regular maintenance, can last 2-4 years before showing significant wear such as thinning or cracking. Alligator and shell cordovan, being more resilient, can extend to 5-6 years. Storage in dry environments and avoiding prolonged moisture contact accelerates material longevity.
