Frequently asked questions

What is the lug width of the Omega Constellation 131.53.29.20.52.001?

The lug width is exactly 18mm. This width is specific to the 29mm Constellation and must be measured between the case lugs. A strap of different width will not be compatible, as it would compromise the harmonious proportions between the case and the strap itself.

What type of strap do you recommend for the Constellation 131.53.29.20.52.001?

For a Constellation in yellow gold, we recommend fine-grain alligator, vegetable-tanned calf, or shell cordovan. These materials preserve the formal elegance of the watch and complement the refinement of the gold. Avoid textile or synthetic straps, which would betray the original design DNA of the model.

How do you change the strap on an Omega Constellation with lugs?

Changing the strap on a Constellation requires the delicate removal of the quick-release spring bars that connect the lugs to the strap. Use a proper tool (spring bar tool) to compress the springs and extract the strap, avoiding scratches on the gold case. If you are uncertain, contact an authorized Omega service center to preserve your warranty.

Are Milan Straps compatible with the Omega Constellation 131.53.29.20.52.001?

Yes, our 18mm straps are fully compatible with the Constellation 131.53.29.20.52.001. All our straps respect precise geometric tolerances to fit without forcing onto the original Omega lugs, preserving the integrity of the yellow gold case.

How long does an alligator leather strap last on this Constellation?

An artisanal quality alligator strap, with daily use and ordinary maintenance, has an average lifespan of 4-7 years. Longevity depends on intensity of use, perspiration, and cleaning frequency. Our straps come with an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects, and can be repaired or renewed when the material wears out.
