Strap for Benu Power Reserve Platinum

The lug width of the Moritz Grossmann Benu MG-000628 is precisely 18mm. This measurement represents the internal distance between the two case lugs and remains constant regardless of the strap configuration. For accurate measurement, use a millimetre ruler positioned in a straight line between the inner points of both lugs.

The Moritz Grossmann Benu MG-000628 pairs excellently with straps in genuine alligator, shell cordovan, or vegetable-tanned calf leather. Given the platinum case and restrained aesthetic of the movement, we recommend neutral hues such as dark cognac, intense brown, or black. Alligator straps accentuate the case's luminosity, whilst shell cordovan offers superior durability with a patina that evolves over time.

The strap is changed by removing the two spring bars that connect the strap to the case lugs. Use a dedicated spring bar tool to compress the bar and slide it laterally out of position. After removing the previous strap, insert the new strap's bars into the lugs, ensuring they click firmly into place. For 18mm artisanal straps such as those from Milano Straps, the procedure remains identical.

Yes, the Moritz Grossmann Benu MG-000628 is fully compatible with third-party quality straps in 18mm dimension. Milano Straps offers an extensive selection of artisanal straps in this size, crafted from noble materials including alligator, shell cordovan, and vegetable-tanned calf. Ensure your chosen strap is specified as 18mm to guarantee perfect fit to the lugs.

The durability of a leather strap depends on the material and usage patterns. A quality artisanal alligator strap typically lasts 3–5 years of daily wear, whilst shell cordovan can exceed 7–10 years thanks to its superior density. Vegetable-tanned calf offers intermediate durability of 4–6 years. Factors such as humidity, sunlight exposure, and frequency of use influence longevity. Milano Straps exclusively employs premium leathers that age with elegance, developing characteristic patina.
