Strap for Constellation Quartz 33.5 '95 Yellow Gold / Champagne

The lug width of the Omega Constellation 1112.10.00 is 20mm. This specification is crucial for purchasing compatible straps and must be measured from the inside of one lug to the inside of the other, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the case.

For the Constellation 1112.10.00 in yellow gold, natural alligator or shell cordovan represent the finest choices. Alligator creates aesthetic continuity through its regular grain that does not compete with the metal; shell cordovan with vegetable tanning offers a patina that evolves over time, lending character to the watch.

Changing the strap requires the use of a spring bar tool. Position the watch on a stable surface, locate the horizontal pins connecting the strap to the case, gently press inward with the tool to compress the internal spring, and slide the pin outward. Reverse the procedure to install the new strap, ensuring the pin is correctly positioned in both lugs.

Yes, all straps with a 20mm lug width are compatible with the Constellation 1112.10.00. Many artisanal 20mm straps offer superior construction quality to official models, featuring premium leathers and bespoke craftsmanship. It is important to verify that the lug finishes are consistent with the aesthetic of the watch.

A quality leather strap, crafted with vegetable tanning or shell cordovan, lasts on average 3-5 years if subjected to daily use and routine maintenance. Prolonged exposure to sunlight, moisture, and perspiration accelerates aging. The leather progressively thins and stitching may fail. At Casati Milano, custom straps include an 18-month warranty and can be restored through professional re-stitching.
