Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Mido Ocean Star M026.430.44.061.00?
The lug width is 22mm, corresponding to ISO 1338 standard for sports wristwatches. This dimension, measured between the inner shoulders of the lugs, enables mounting of aftermarket straps and provides aesthetic versatility without compromising structural stability.
Which strap is best suited to the Mido Ocean Star M026.430.44.061.00?
For this titanium diver, we recommend three solutions: (1) premium NATO in nylon and cotton, for diving and wet conditions; (2) vegetable-tanned leather with titanium deployante, for daily elegant wear; (3) FKM rubber, to ensure consistent elasticity in marine environments. Choice depends on prevalent use and colour preferences.
How do you change the strap on the Mido Ocean Star M026.430.44.061.00?
Remove the watch from your wrist. With a dedicated tool (spring bar tool), apply gentle pressure towards the inside of the lower lug, releasing the elastic pin from the lug. Extract the old strap, insert the new one keeping the two pins parallel, and verify the closure click. The operation takes 2-3 minutes and requires no watchmaking skills.
Are aftermarket straps compatible with the Mido Ocean Star M026.430.44.061.00?
Yes, any strap with 22mm lug width is compatible. It is essential to verify that the internal lugs have a standard diameter of 2.0-2.2mm for secure mounting. Milano Straps offers a selection of 22mm straps in Italian leather, premium fabrics and technical materials, all tested for precise tolerances.
How long does a leather strap last on a diver like the Mido Ocean Star?
Durability depends on the tanning method and exposure. A vegetable-tanned strap, if regularly maintained, resists 18-24 months of moderate daily use. On a diver, exposure to water, salt and humidity reduces life to 10-15 months. We recommend straps in protected aniline leather or rubber for humid climates, and seasonal rotation to maximise longevity.
