Strap for Constellation Quartz 22.5 Stainless Steel / Red Gold / Diamond / MOP / 160 Years

The lug width is 20 mm, measured between the horizontal pins of the case. This dimension is standard for this ladies' model and ensures compatibility with all 20 mm straps available in the catalog.

Alligator represents the most sophisticated choice, with a natural texture that enhances the rose gold case. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf leather offers exceptional durability and develops a rich patina over time. For everyday wear, smooth calf leather in cognac or dark brown tones creates harmony without visual excess.

Use a springbar tool to gently remove the pins (springbars) that connect the strap to the case. Position the tool in the lateral slot of the pin and press inward until the end retracts. The pin will come out of the case. Repeat on the opposite side. To install the new strap, reinsert the pins following the reverse path, ensuring that the terminals lock correctly into the case seats.

Yes, provided the strap has a 20 mm lug width. Artisanal straps in alligator, vegetable-tanned calf, or shell cordovan are perfectly compatible and often offer superior construction quality to original models. Always verify that the strap terminals are proportioned to the lug width to avoid mechanical play.

A quality leather strap, with vegetable tanning or alligator, lasts 2-3 years with moderate daily use. Durability depends on water exposure, body perspiration, and frequency of use. A shell cordovan strap, thanks to superior molecular density, can last 4-5 years. Regular maintenance (cleaning and drying after humidity exposure) significantly extends service life.
