Strap for De Ville Prestige Quartz 22 Stainless Steel / White / Bracelet

No. The bracelet is integrated into the case — the lugs are proprietary and no off-the-shelf strap will attach. To change it, I build a custom strap in the workshop, shaping the lug terminals to match your case's specific geometry.

We work by appointment only at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>. I take measurements directly from the case, hand-model the terminals, and check the fit multiple times. It's never identical to another — every De Ville has its own proportions.

Mississippi Alligator. This watch breathes formal elegance — clean lines, understated presence — and Alligator has that same restraint: fine grain, nearly smooth surface, ages with dignity. If you prefer something more lived-in, Barenia is the choice, patina showing right away.

With daily wear, between 5 and 8 years. It depends on how you treat it — protect from water where you can, avoid prolonged humidity. Leather ages beautifully: changes colour, softens, tells your story at the wrist. When needed, I remake it.

Because it creates a formal dialogue between case and metal — proportions must be respected perfectly. A mistake in the terminal fitting shows instantly and compromises the whole visual harmony. That's why the workshop takes the time — there's no shortcut.
