Strap for Constellation Manhattan 28 Quartz Stainless Steel / Silver Silk

The lug width is 20mm. This measurement is calculated between the pins that connect the strap to the case. It is essential to verify this dimension when purchasing a replacement strap to ensure mechanical compatibility and correct visual proportions.

Alligator is the most noble choice, thanks to its regular grain that reflects the geometric order of the griffes. For daily wear, calf leather with vegetable tanning offers elegance and evolving patina. A strap born dark creates a contemporary minimalist effect. Rubber is discouraged unless for purely nautical use.

The strap is replaced using a specialized tool to remove the pins that fix it to the case. If you are not experienced, consult a certified watchmaker to avoid scratches. The operation takes approximately 10-15 minutes and causes no damage if performed correctly.

Any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible. In particular, you will find artisanal straps in alligator, calf, nato and rubber on milanostraps.it, all customizable in sizes, colors and stitching thread, ready for shipment or made to order via Casati Milano.

A premium leather strap, such as alligator or calf tanned with vegetable tanning, lasts on average 3-5 years with regular daily use. Durability depends on humidity, sun exposure and tanning quality. Casati Milano offers an 18-month warranty on made-to-measure straps and recommends periodic maintenance with specific balms.
