Strap for Constellation Quartz 27 Polished Stainless Steel / MOP

The Omega Constellation 123.10.27.60.05.002 has a lug width of 16mm. This measurement is specific to this 27mm model and is the correct size for choosing a compatible strap. The measurement is taken by calculating the linear distance between the two strap attachment points on the case.

The best strap depends on the intended use. For formal occasions, a dark brown alligator in vegetable tanning with a steel deployant clasp remains the reference. For daily wear, a black calf, a robust NATO, or a shell cordovan offer versatility and durability. Casati Milano atelier recommends choosing based on desired aging: vegetable tanning develops a noble patina over time, cordovan develops natural luminosity.

The change is straightforward: the necessary tools are a spring bar tool or a small lever. Insert the tip under the spring of the lug, compressing it gently until the end is freed from the hole. The new 16mm strap is inserted in the same way, ensuring the spring clicks securely into position. If you prefer, Casati Milano atelier offers strap changes by appointment in Milan.

Yes, absolutely. Any strap with a 16mm lug width is compatible with this Constellation. Milano Straps offers a collection of 16mm straps ready for shipment in alligator, calf, shell cordovan and technical materials. Straps can be customized in sizes, initials and choice of stitching thread.

The lifespan depends on the material and use. A quality artisanal alligator or cordovan in vegetable tanning lasts an average of 4-6 years with moderate daily use. A hand-dyed calf has a similar lifespan. Decisive factors are exposure to moisture and direct sunlight. Casati Milano atelier guarantees 18 months on the strap and recommends replacement when the strap shows signs of structural failure in the bending area.
