Strap for De Ville Prestige Co-Axial 39.5 Stainless Steel / Red Gold / Silver Sunburst / Bracelet

The <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/misura-ansa">lug width</a> is 20mm. This specification is essential for choosing a compatible strap. Always verify by measuring the distance between the lugs on the case extremities, perpendicular to the dial.

To harmonize with the bimetallic color interplay, we recommend dark brown <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/alligatore">alligator</a> with natural patina, or saddlery-embossed calf leather in taupe or beige tones. These materials do not compete chromatically; instead, they complement both metals of the case.

You need two tools: a spring bar tool (or spreader) to lift the lugs, and a stable work surface. Position the watch facing you, insert the tool from below into the lug, gently lift the pin until it releases from the slot, then remove the old strap. Repeat on the opposite side. Insert the new strap by aligning one pin first, then compress the other pin into the slot until it clicks into place.

Yes, provided it is handcrafted and made from <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/concia-vegetale">vegetable tanning</a> or <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/shell-cordovan">shell cordovan</a>. A high-quality strap does not damage the watch; in fact, it often enhances the aesthetic experience. On milanostraps.it you will find technical selections for 20mm lug width, or Casati Milano creates bespoke models in their atelier.

Durability depends on frequency of use, climate, and leather quality. A vegetable-tanned <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/alligatore">alligator</a> strap well maintained lasts 3–5 years with daily wear. Shell cordovan can reach 7–10 years. The patina that develops over time is desirable and characteristic. Casati Milano offers an 18-month warranty on every strap made.
