Strap for TimeWalker Dual Carbon Chronograph Automatic

The Montblanc Timewalker 105805 features a lug width of exactly 22mm. This width is compatible with all straps designed for the 22mm category and represents the modern standard for 43mm chronographs. To verify the measurement, use a digital calliper placed directly between the lugs at the case: the value you obtain must be 22mm to ensure perfect compatibility.

For the Timewalker 105805, we recommend materials that respect the dual sporty and elegant nature of this chronograph. Genuine alligator in dark tones creates a visually sophisticated pairing without losing functional credibility. Vegetable-tanned calf offers a warmer, more intimate profile and ages beautifully over time. An O.D. green or grey nylon NATO strap amplifies the instrumental character of the piece. FKM rubber remains the ultimate choice for those who wish their chronograph entirely free from formal compromises.

The strap on the Montblanc Timewalker 105805 is secured by standard 22mm spring bars. To remove the strap, use a dedicated spring bar tool to push the pin inward, releasing the lug from the case. Repeat on the other side. To install a new strap, align the first pin, press the lug onto the case until you feel the spring bar click into place. Verify visually that the pin is fully seated. Repeat on the second side and check for proper lug stability.

Yes, the Montblanc Timewalker 105805 accepts any strap manufactured for the 22mm lug width, whether from Montblanc or third-party makers. Italian artisanal leather straps in Tuscan leather, alligator, or calf are fully compatible and often offer superior build quality compared to the original strap, whilst maintaining the aesthetic elegance of the case.

The longevity of a leather strap depends on tanning method, usage frequency, and maintenance. A quality vegetable-tanned leather strap, used occasionally, can last 5-8 years and develop a rich patina in its final years of service. A genuine alligator strap, being more durable, can exceed 10 years. Typical wear begins at the buckle edges (zone of maximum flexion) and the strap heel. Regular maintenance with natural waxes and specialised conditioners significantly extends strap lifespan.
