Strap for Multifort Chronometer 1 Stainless Steel / Rose Gold / Grey / Bracelet

The Mido Multifort M038.431.21.061.00 is equipped with a 22mm lug width, the standard construction specification for cases between 38 and 44mm in diameter. This measurement ensures perfect fit and strap stability without lateral play, allowing you to select from a wide range of artisanal straps without proportional compromise.

For the instrumental vocation of the Multifort M038.431.21.061.00, we recommend a strap in Tuscan leather with vegetable tanning, 1.4–1.6mm thick: it offers durable robustness, develops natural patina over time, and maintains aesthetic coherence with the steel case's technical language. Valid alternatives are NATO canvas for versatility, or natural rubber for high-wear conditions.

The Mido Multifort M038.431.21.061.00 uses the traditional spring bar attachment system. Remove the original strap by gently extracting the bars with a spring bar tool; attach the new 22mm strap by inserting the bars into the case attachment holes, ensuring both sides are firmly positioned. The operation takes a few minutes and requires no specialised tools.

Yes, the Mido Multifort M038.431.21.061.00 accepts any artisanal strap with a 22mm lug width. Higher-quality aftermarket straps often offer aesthetic and tactile opportunities that the original strap does not contemplate: Tuscan vegetable-tanned leathers, shell cordovan, fine textiles and specialist rubbers allow you to personalise the watch's visual identity completely whilst maintaining its functional integrity.

A high-quality Tuscan vegetable-tanned leather strap lasts 3–5 years with moderate daily wear, developing patina and character in the process. Longevity depends on exposure to moisture, UV rays and mechanical stress: with periodic maintenance (gentle cleaning, water-repellent treatments) durability extends significantly. Rubber or NATO straps offer superior resistance in extreme conditions, with longer life cycles but less aesthetic evolution.
