Strap for Ocean Star 200 Titanium / Grey / Rubber

The lug width of the Mido Ocean Star M026.430.47.061.00 is precisely 22mm. This measurement refers to the horizontal distance between the attachment lugs on the case. It is essential to measure accurately before ordering a strap: exactly 22mm ensures a perfect fit without requiring any adjustments or forcing.

The ideal strap depends on your intended use. For frequent diving, we recommend a high-density polyamide NATO or vulcanised rubber, both of which are waterproof and quick-drying. For daily formal wear, a dark brown alligator or vegetable-tanned calf elevates the satin titanium case. For versatility, pairing a leather strap with a NATO strap offers the optimal solution.

Changing the strap on the M026.430.47.061.00 requires a simple tool: a spring bar tool. Position the tip into one of the side holes of the lug, gently compress the internal spring to release the pin, and extract the old strap. Insert the new strap by aligning the terminal holes over the pins and press until you hear a click. The operation takes just a few minutes and requires no specialist skills.

Yes, any artisanal strap manufactured for 22mm lug width is fully compatible. Straps certified for this measurement comply with ISO standard tolerances and fit the M026.430.47.061.00 lugs without issues. We recommend always verifying that the seller clearly specifies "22mm lug width" in the technical description.

Durability depends on the material and usage. A high-quality alligator or shell cordovan strap, worn in rotation with other straps and kept away from systematic exposure to saltwater, lasts 5–7 years. A vegetable-tanned calf strap, more delicate, lasts 3–4 years under intensive use. A polyamide NATO strap, conversely, resists for over 10 years without noticeable degradation, even with repeated immersions.
