Strap for De Ville Prestige Co-Axial 36.5 Stainless Steel / Yellow Gold / Champagne / Bracelet

The lug width of the De Ville 4374.15.00 is exactly 14 mm, measured from inner lug to inner lug. This width was specifically proportioned to the 36.50 mm case to ensure aesthetic harmony. Verify the measurement with a caliper, positioning it perpendicular to the case.

Alligator remains the most elegant and formal choice, thanks to its regular texture and natural patina. Vegetable-tanned calf offers a warmer and more personal approach, ideal for daily wear. Shell cordovan combines elegance and durability, creating a sophisticated dialogue with the yellow gold case.

Use a spring bar tool to gently remove the pins from the case. Work in a well-lit environment to avoid losing components. Position the new strap by aligning the lugs to the pins and reinsert the pins with controlled pressure until the locking click is felt. Never force: the materials of the two-tone De Ville are sensitive.

Yes, all straps with 14mm lug width are compatible, provided the pins respect standard diameter. However, to preserve the two-tone aesthetic coherence of the case, we recommend straps that dialogue with the gold-steel contrasts: avoid overly sporty or brightly colored straps, which would undermine the refinement of the model.

A quality alligator or calf strap can last 3-5 years with daily wear and regular maintenance (cleaning, annual conditioning). Shell cordovan, thanks to the more robust nature of horse leather, extends the lifespan to 5-7 years. Longevity depends on sun exposure, humidity, frequency of wear, and the tanning method used.
