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

The lug width of this model is 16mm. This is the distance between the two lugs positioned on the sides of the case where the strap is attached. To verify it, remove the original strap and measure the net space between the two lugs using a caliper.

Given the two-tone nature in yellow gold and steel of this model, we recommend black or brown alligator with fine grain, or vegetable-tanned leather. These materials enhance the discreet elegance of the case and naturally complement the mother-of-pearl dial. Burgundy shell cordovan represents a bold option for those seeking dynamism.

Straps are changed via the spring bar or threaded pin, depending on the model. Use a spring bar tool to gently remove the original strap from the lugs, then insert the new strap by compressing the spring until you feel it lock into place. If the De Ville has threaded pins, a specific tool is required to avoid damage to the lugs.

Yes, all straps with 16mm lug width are compatible. Milano Straps offers a complete collection of artisanal 16mm straps, customizable in leather, color and stitching thread. The Casati Milano atelier also produces bespoke straps with direct leather selection and 18-month warranty.

A quality leather strap (alligator, vegetable-tanned leather, shell cordovan) typically lasts 3-5 years with regular use and proper maintenance. Wear depends on climate factors, frequency of use and care. Vegetable-tanned straps develop a desirable patina over time. Periodic cleaning with a dry cloth and annual revitalization with specific conditioners significantly extend durability.
