Strap for Star Roman Small Second Automatic Stainless Steel / Silver / Bracelet

The lug width of the 111912 is 19mm. This measurement, taken between the two lugs on the case, is essential for selecting a compatible strap. Always verify the value with a digital calliper before purchase.

An alligator strap in cognac brown or a vegetable-tanned calf leather strap represents the most elegant choices. For robust daily use, heavy cotton NATO straps offer versatility. FKM rubber is ideal for humid environments or summer wear.

You will need a springbar removal tool. Position the small hook under the elastic pin, gently push to release the internal spring, then slide the pin out. Repeat on the other side. If you prefer to avoid doing it yourself, consult a specialist watchmaker or visit Atelier Casati Milano by appointment.

Yes, any strap with a 19mm lug width is mechanically compatible. Aesthetic compatibility, however, depends on thickness and finish: a poorly made strap will highlight case defects. We recommend artisanal leather or rubber straps to maintain the watch's integrity.

A quality leather strap (alligator, vegetable-tanned calf, shell cordovan) lasts an average of 3-5 years with daily wear, up to 7-10 years if worn occasionally. Longevity depends on sun exposure, perspiration and maintenance. A heavy cotton NATO strap can last 5-8 years. FKM rubber has a similar lifespan to leather but is more resistant to atmospheric agents.
