Strap for Atum Pure M DLC / Green

The lug width of the Moritz Grossmann Atum MG-000706 is 18 millimetres. This dimension is specific to this model and represents the distance between the horizontal lugs of the case. To verify compatibility, measure the width of the contact point between the lug and the strap: it must be exactly 18mm.

For the MG-000706 we recommend full-grain leather straps (alligator or vegetable-tanned calf) that enhance the Saxonian elegance of the steel case. Dark brown or black alligator conveys formality; natural calf develops a natural patina over time. For contemporary use, NATO straps in neutral colours (grey, blue) maintain aesthetic balance without compromising the technical integrity of the piece.

Strap replacement is performed via the spring bars located at the ends of the lugs. Use a dedicated tool (strap lever or specialised instrument) to compress the spring and slide the old strap from the attachment. Insert the new strap by aligning the holes with the attachments, then release the spring until you feel the locking click. Avoid forcing the attachments to prevent case damage.

Yes, it is possible to use certified 18mm aftermarket straps for the MG-000706. Ensure the strap is constructed from quality materials (full-grain leather, vulcanised rubber, technical canvas) and that the spring bar attachments are robust. Artisanal straps made with vegetable tanning offer superior durability and natural ageing, maintaining the aesthetic and functional value of the original watch.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the tanning method used and frequency of wear. A vegetable-tanned calf strap in good condition lasts approximately 3-5 years under daily wear. Alligator, thanks to its more robust grain structure, extends durability to 5-7 years. To prolong strap life, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, extreme cold and direct sunlight. Seasonal rotation between multiple straps significantly increases the longevity of each.
