Strap for De Ville Prestige Quartz 22 Black / Strap

The lug width of the De Ville 4870.52.01 is 20 millimetres. You can verify it by measuring the distance between the two attachment holes on the case. A manufacturing tolerance of ±0.5mm is permitted in artisanal straps, but 20mm remains the Omega standard for this model.

The choice depends on the context of use and the dial colour. Vegetable-tanned alligator offers maximum aesthetic refinement with natural grain; shell cordovan develops a fascinating patina over time; artisanal calf leather guarantees minimalist elegance. For a De Ville with a silver dial, we recommend medium brown alligator or black calf.

The change is simple: get a spring bar tool and gently remove the two elastic pins that secure the lug. Position the new pins of your strap in the housing and press until you feel the click. If you are not experienced, Casati Milano offers this service at the atelier by appointment in Milan.

Yes, as long as the lug width is exactly 20mm. Aftermarket straps of artisanal quality often exceed the originals in terms of comfort and customisation. Milano Straps offers a complete collection of 20mm customisable straps, from alligator to shell cordovan, with an 18-month warranty.

Durability depends on the quality of the leather, frequency of use, and maintenance. A vegetable-tanned alligator or shell cordovan lasts 5-8 years with daily use. Superior quality artisanal calf can exceed 10 years. The patina that develops over time is an aesthetic characteristic, not a defect. Casati Milano guarantees 18 months on artisanal strap construction.
