Strap for Multifort TV 35 Stainless Steel / Blue / Bracelet

The lug width of the Mido Multifort M049.307.11.041.00 is 18 mm. This measurement is critical when selecting a strap—it must match exactly, with no tolerance. Verify compatibility by measuring the distance between the lug pins using a digital caliper.

For the M049.307.11.041.00, we recommend a vegetable-tanned Tuscan leather strap or shell cordovan, both developing a natural patina that enhances the model's vintage-forward proportions. Alternatively, NATO or vulcanised rubber straps are functional choices if your routine demands weather resistance.

Remove the strap by using a spring bar tool to compress the internal spring mechanism at each lug pin. Locate the small hole on the inner side of the lug, insert the tool tip to compress the spring, and pull the pin outward. Repeat for both lugs, then insert the new strap by reversing the procedure.

Yes, provided the lug width is precisely 18 mm. Many generic straps are not calibrated for this intermediate dimension. We recommend bespoke leather straps from specialist suppliers, who guarantee certified compatibility and superior construction quality.

Durability depends on leather type and usage patterns. A vegetable-tanned Tuscan leather strap typically lasts 4–7 years of daily wear; shell cordovan can exceed 10 years. Perspiration, humidity, direct sunlight, and mechanical fatigue accelerate deterioration. Regular maintenance—cleaning and conditioning with specialised waxes—significantly extends lifespan.
