Strap for De Ville Quartz 27.5 Stainless Steel / Blue - Diamond

The lug width of the De Ville 434.13.28.60.53.002 is 13mm. This is measured as the internal distance between the two spring bars that hold the strap. This specific dimension is crucial for ensuring proper compatibility and correct aesthetic integration of the strap.

For this feminine dress watch, alligator represents the ideal formal solution thanks to its fine, regular grain that doesn't compete with the dial's purity. Alternatively, shell cordovan offers rich patina and character, whilst vegetable-tanned calf leather ensures daily versatility with progressive patina development.

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool to remove the pins from the watch lugs. Insert the tool into the small hole at the base of each spring bar, gently lift to release the tension, and extract. Install the new strap by reversing the procedure. If you prefer to avoid risk, entrust the work to a specialist watchmaker.

Yes, any strap with a 13mm lug width is compatible. However, we recommend dedicated straps from specialised artisans like Milano Straps to ensure construction quality, precise finishing and longevity consistent with Omega standards. Strap quality directly impacts the overall perception of the watch's value.

A quality leather strap, with proper maintenance, typically lasts 3-5 years. Longevity depends on frequency of use, UV exposure and humidity. Natural leather improves over time by developing patina, but the material remains organic and subject to wear. Artisanal straps with reinforced stitching maintain their structure longer than industrial productions.
