Strap for Constellation Manhattan 25 Quartz Stainless Steel / Sedna Gold / Brown - Diamond

The Omega Constellation 131.20.25.60.63.001 has a lug width of exactly 16mm. This is the internal distance between the two pins protruding from the case. It is a standard dimension for 25mm Constellation models and requires straps specifically constructed for this width. Measuring the lug width correctly is essential to avoid excessive strap movement or instability.

The best strap depends on usage and aesthetic preference. For formal elegance, we recommend dark brown or black alligator with vegetable tanning and a deployant clasp. For everyday wear, burgundy or cordovan calf offer resistance and natural patina development. In summer, grey NATO canvas or FKM rubber guarantee practicality and water compatibility. The Sedna gold case pairs best with warm tones: browns, burgundy and hazel.

The strap is replaced manually by extracting the lateral pins with a specific tool (spring bar tool). Position the watch on a soft surface, grip the pin with the tool by pressing downward to release the internal spring, extract the pin completely and repeat on the other side. Insert the new pins into the new strap and lock them into the case lugs, ensuring the strap follows the natural curve of your wrist.

Any strap with a lug width of 16mm is compatible with this model. Milanostraps offers a complete collection of handcrafted straps in alligator, calf, shell cordovan, canvas and rubber in 16mm width. It is possible to customize the strap in color, thickness, stitching thread and clasp type. Atelier Casati Milano also offers bespoke services with personalized consultation.

A quality leather strap, used daily, lasts 2-4 years depending on ambient humidity, sun exposure and frequency of wear. Vegetable-tanned leather ages by developing a characteristic patina, increasing aesthetic appeal. Cordovan and alligator are more durable and last longer. To extend the life of the strap, avoid excessive moisture, do not expose to prolonged direct sunlight and clean regularly with soft cloths. Casati Milano warranty covers 18 months from manufacture.
