Strap for De Ville Prestige Co-Axial 36.5 Red Gold / Diamond / Bracelet

The lug width is 20mm. This measurement represents the distance between the two lateral extremities of the case where the strap is attached. To verify strap compatibility, ensure it is specifically designed for 20mm lug width, in order to avoid imperfect fit or damage to the spring bars.

Alligator remains the most recommended choice for this collection. The regular texture of the grain and the dark patina that develops over time harmonize perfectly with the natural warmth of rose gold. Vegetable-tanned calf represents a more minimalist and formal alternative, ideal for formal settings.

Remove the watch from your wrist and position it on a stable, soft surface. Use a spring bar tool (a specific tool for removing spring bars) to gently lift the metal catch that holds the spring bar in place, releasing the old strap. Align the holes of the new strap with the case lugs and reinsert the spring bar, verifying that the catch clicks into position and that the strap is firmly anchored.

Yes, provided the lug width is exactly 20mm. Quality aftermarket straps, crafted in alligator or calf with robust construction, are completely compatible and often offer greater aesthetic versatility compared to the original Omega bracelet. Always verify the technical specifications before purchase.

A quality artisanal alligator or calf strap, with regular maintenance, typically lasts 3-5 years with daily wear. Durability depends on exposure to moisture, sweat, and UV rays. Protecting the strap from rain, keeping the leather dry, and occasionally applying specific balms significantly extends its useful life.
