Strap for Constellation Manhattan 28 Quartz Stainless Steel / Sedna Gold / Brown-Diamond / Diamond

The lug width of the Constellation 131.25.28.60.63.001 is 18 mm. This measurement was calculated by Omega to maintain correct optical proportions with the 28 mm diameter case. Any replacement strap or bracelet must respect this measurement to ensure compatibility and stability.

Premium alligator is the most recommended choice to enhance the dress character of the Constellation: the natural grain and silky texture perfectly complement the griffes and Sedna Gold. Excellent alternatives include vegetable-tanned calf leather, shell cordovan for extreme durability, and fabric NATO for more informal occasions.

Changing the strap on the Constellation requires a spring bar tool and careful handling of the lugs. Position the watch with the lugs facing upward, locate the small lateral holes and insert the spring bar tool to compress the internal pin, then slide the old strap upward. Repeat the process with the new 18 mm strap, ensuring the pin is securely anchored.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material and usage. Premium quality alligator lasts 4-6 years of daily use before requiring significant replacement. Vegetable-tanned calf leather offers durability of 3-4 years. Shell cordovan, thanks to its fibrous structure, easily reaches 6-8 years. All Milano Straps artisanal straps include an 18-month warranty and are repairable in case of natural wear.
