Strap for De Ville Prestige Co-Axial 32.7 Stainless Steel / Diamond / Silver / Bracelet

The lug width of the De Ville 424.15.33.20.52.001 is 16mm. This is a specific width for cases with diameters between 32-34mm. It is essential to verify compatibility by measuring the internal distance between the two lugs before ordering a strap.

Alligator represents the most sophisticated choice, thanks to its regular texture and patina that evolves over time. For an authentic alternative, vegetable-tanned calf offers a more pronounced grain. For sports or summer use, NATO or vulcanized rubber maintain the constructive balance.

Use a spring bar tool to remove the spring bars (small elastic pins) from the case lugs. Insert the flat tip of the tool into the hole at the base of the lug, lift slightly to release the spring, then remove the old strap. Repeat the reverse operation with the new 16mm strap.

Yes, provided the lug width is exactly 16mm. High-quality artisanal straps, made with alligator or calf, are perfectly compatible with the De Ville. Always verify that the internal width matches the specifications before purchase.

Durability depends on the material and use. Alligator with vegetable tanning, when properly maintained, lasts 3-5 years in daily use. Standard calf has an average lifespan of 2-4 years. Vulcanized rubber is more resistant (5-7 years), while fabric NATO can last indefinitely. Periodic maintenance (cleanliness, protection from moisture) significantly extends longevity.
