Strap for De Ville Prestige Co-Axial 39.5 Power Reserve Stainless Steel / Yellow Gold / Vintage Champagne Silk

The <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/misura-ansa">lug width</a> is 20 mm. This size requires specific straps: straps that are too narrow will not secure to the lugs, while wider straps will not fit properly. On milanostraps.it you will find exclusively 20mm straps for this model.

To enhance the two-tone aesthetic, we recommend <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/alligatore">black or medium brown alligator</a>: the fine texture of the crocodile does not compete with the reflections of the yellow gold, but adds depth without aggression. Vegetable-tanned <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/concia-vegetale">calf</a> is equally valid if you desire natural patina over time. Avoid thick rubber and NATO straps, which distort the proportion of the 39.5 mm case.

Remove the spring bars using a dedicated tool or the flat end of a knife. Position the De Ville on a soft surface, press gently downward on one lug while lifting the strap. Repeat on the other lug. Insert the spring bars into the holes of the new <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/alligatore">alligator</a> or leather strap until you hear a click. The operation takes 2-3 minutes without specialized tools.

Original Omega straps are sewn with double chain stitching using nylon thread, last over 5 years, and maintain chronometer certification. Custom artisanal straps such as those from Casati Milano offer personalization (initials, stitching thread, choice of premium leather) and 18-month warranty, ideal if you want a strap that evolves with visible patina. Both are compatible: the choice depends on your usage style.

An <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/alligatore">alligator</a> or <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/shell-cordovan">shell cordovan</a> strap lasts 3-5 years with moderate daily use. Longevity depends on humidity, sun exposure, and care: avoid prolonged water exposure, protect from direct UV rays, and apply leather balm every 6 months. A <a href="/pages/termine-glossario/concia-vegetale">vegetable-tanned</a> strap develops fascinating patina, while synthetic materials maintain uniform appearance longer but offer less aesthetic character.
