Strap for De Ville Quartz 30 Stainless Steel / Turqouise - Diamond

The lug width of the De Ville 434.13.30.60.60.001 is 14mm. This measurement refers to the distance between the two lugs of the case and determines the width of the compatible strap. It is essential to measure correctly from the outer edge of the lug shoulder to ensure compatibility with aftermarket straps.

For the De Ville 434.13.30.60.60.001, we recommend alligator as the premium choice: its natural and squared texture creates a refined contrast with the steel case. Vegetable-tanned calf is excellent for those seeking softness and natural patina, while shell cordovan offers durability and lasting luminosity over time. For more sporty uses, NATO fabric remains a practical and reversible solution.

To change the strap, you need a spring bar tool. Position the watch with the strap facing upward, insert the tool into the small hole under the lug to compress the internal spring, then extract the spring bar. Repeat the operation on the other end. Insert the new strap into the spring bar, then reinsert the spring bar into the case hole. If you prefer, Casati Milano offers a strap change service by appointment.

On milanostraps.it you will find a dedicated collection of 14mm compatible straps, ready to ship and customizable in size, initials, and stitching thread color.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material and usage. A high-quality alligator strap lasts 3-5 years with daily use and proper maintenance (avoiding excessive moisture and periodic cleaning). Shell cordovan is even more resistant and can reach 5-7 years. Vegetable-tanned calf, being softer, tends to last 2-4 years. All Milano Straps straps include an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
