Strap for De Ville Prestige Co-Axial 32.7 Stainless Steel / Yellow Gold / MOP / Bracelet

The lug width of the De Ville 424.20.33.20.05.001 is 16 millimetres. This width is standard for dress watches in the De Ville collection with diameters between 32 and 34 millimetres. To measure correctly, calculate the internal distance between the two metal protrusions where the strap is fitted.

Alligator remains the most historically coherent choice: its fine grain reflects the elegance of the mother-of-pearl dial. Shades such as cognac, pearl or beige create a natural visual dialogue. Vegetable-tanned calf leather offers a versatile alternative with a patina that ages beautifully. For stark contrast, pure black is ideal in formal settings.

The strap is replaced via the spring bars present at the lugs. Use a specific tool (spring bar tool) to gently extract the bars, then insert the new strap by passing the bars through the slots. Ensure the strap is perfectly centred before securing the bars.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the tanning method and usage. High-quality leather, such as alligator or shell cordovan subjected to artisanal processing, maintains structural integrity for 4-6 years with daily wear. Vegetable tanning develops a protective patina that extends useful life. Milano Straps offers an 18-month warranty on all bespoke straps.
