Strap for Constellation Co-Axial 38 Stainless Steel / Red Gold / Silver

The lug width of the Constellation 123.20.38.21.52.001 is 20mm. This measurement represents the distance between the two case lugs where the strap is inserted. To verify it, use a digital caliper by measuring internally at the lugs, or consult the official Omega specifications directly.

For this bimetallic case, we recommend dark brown alligator, cognac shell cordovan, or black calf. Dark brown alligator enhances the warmth of rose gold; shell cordovan evolves over time creating personal uniqueness; black calf amplifies the steel-gold contrast with sober elegance. The choice depends on your primary use context.

Strap replacement requires specific tools: a spring bar tool to remove the metal bars that secure the strap to the case lugs. Position the tool tip in the small holes of the lug to compress the spring and release the bar. If you are not experienced, entrust the task to a professional to avoid damaging the case.

Any strap with a lug width of 20mm is compatible with the Constellation 123.20.38.21.52.001. Milano Straps artisanal straps are manufactured in this specific size and guarantee perfect fit. Always verify the lug width before purchase to avoid discrepancies.

The lifespan of a leather strap varies based on material and usage: mid-quality calf lasts 18-24 months; shell cordovan and alligator reach 3-5 years thanks to superior natural density; vegetable-tanned leather offers 2-3 years with evolving patina. Frequent exposure to water, humidity, and perspiration reduces longevity. Milano Straps straps include an 18-month warranty with the possibility of early replacement if necessary.
