What I'm asked about the Omega De Ville 424.13.40.20.01.001
What strap size does the Omega De Ville 424.13.40.20.01.001 take?
The Omega De Ville 424.13.40.20.01.001 needs 20 mm between the lugs, usually 16 mm at the buckle. It's the size I've been fitting on it for years.
Can the strap on the Omega De Ville 424.13.40.20.01.001 be changed?
Yes. It has spring bars between the lugs: with the right tool the strap comes off in a minute. If you'd rather not risk a scratch, I do it in the workshop.
Can I put a leather strap on the Omega De Ville 424.13.40.20.01.001?
Yes, in 20 mm leather. On a 40 mm dress watch alligator is the natural choice: thin, elegant, what it was born for.
Which strap do you recommend for the Omega De Ville 424.13.40.20.01.001?
A thin 20 mm alligator. You'll find it ready in the 20 mm collection. If you'd rather have something built on your wrist, the Casati atelier.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best strap for the Omega De Ville 424.13.40.20.01.001?
For this model we recommend natural alligator or shell cordovan, as their grain and patina over time enhance the elegance of the satin-finished steel case. Black alligator maintains a formal profile, while dark brown (cognac) creates a warm balance. Vegetable-tanned calf leather is a more accessible choice with lower maintenance, ideal if you wear the watch daily.
What aftermarket straps are compatible with the Omega De Ville 424.13.40.20.01.001?
Any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible. You can choose from alligator, shell cordovan, calf leather, NATO fabric and natural rubber, as long as the width is exactly 20mm. Always verify the seller's specifications to avoid measurement errors.
How long does a leather strap last on an Omega De Ville?
A quality leather strap (alligator or shell cordovan) lasts 3-5 years with daily use, developing a characteristic patina. Duration depends on the environment (humidity, sweat), frequency of use and maintenance. Vegetable-tanned leather can last 2-3 years if subjected to heavy wear. Casati Milano guarantees 18 months on all custom straps.
