Strap for De Ville Prestige Dewdrop Quartz 27.4 Stainless Steel / Silver / Diamond

The lug width is strictly 20mm. This measurement must be verified by placing a digital caliper from the inner attachment point at the top to the inner attachment point at the bottom of the case. A 20mm strap ensures impeccable aesthetic matching, without lateral gaps or instability in the lugs.

Alligator with natural grain is the ideal choice: it conveys subtle authority through symmetrical rectangular texture. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf offers tactile softness and visible aging over time. Shell cordovan presents unique color density, while a woven NATO allows summer versatility. Rubber should be reserved only for athletic contexts.

Removing the current strap means extracting the pins (spring bars) that connect the lugs to the case attachments, using a dedicated spring bar tool. Once the pins are removed, the old strap comes off easily. Insert the new 20mm strap by aligning the lug holes with the spring bars and press until the closure clicks. If inexperienced, entrust Casati Milano for a precise intervention.

Yes, provided the strap is cut specifically for 20mm lug width. However, to guarantee construction quality, aesthetic consistency and longevity, Milano Straps offers artisanal customizable straps with selected leather, custom stitching thread and 18-month warranty. The Casati Milano atelier also allows direct material selection and updates via WhatsApp.

A strap with vegetable tanning typically lasts 3-5 years with daily use, aging visibly and acquiring authentic patina. Alligator, being more robust, can reach 5-7 years. Lifespan depends on frequency of use, humidity and care (avoid prolonged water immersion, protect from excessive sweat). Milano Straps guarantees 18 months on its straps, with possibility of repair and replacement.
