Strap for De Ville Prestige Quartz 32.7 Butterfly Stainless Steel / Red Gold

The lug width is exactly 16mm. This measurement is non-standard and requires specific straps. To verify it, measure the distance between the two inner lugs of the case: it must correspond to 16mm. An 18mm strap will enter forcibly and damage the attachments; a 15mm strap will be loose.

Alligator is the noblest choice for this model: the fine grain and natural patina enhance the elegance of the case. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf offers authentic texture, and shell cordovan ensures comfort after a break-in period. Avoid synthetic straps: the De Ville deserves noble materials.

Use a spring bar tool to remove the metal pins (spring bars) that secure the strap to the lugs. Insert the tip of the tool under the spring bar, pulling toward the center of the case, and the pin will come out. Repeat on both sides. Be careful not to scratch the case, especially the rose gold, and keep the original spring bars.

No. The 424.27.33.60.52.001 strictly requires 16mm straps. Straps of other widths (18, 19, 20mm) are not suitable: they would cause damage to the lugs and compromise aesthetics. If you need particular solutions, the Casati Milano atelier creates custom straps by appointment.

A quality alligator or calf strap lasts on average 3-5 years with daily wear, depending on climate, frequency of wear, and maintenance. Shell cordovan tends to last longer (5-7 years) thanks to its density. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and water to extend longevity.
