Strap for Omega Trésor 428.18.39.60.05.001

For the Trésor 428.18.39.60.05.001, we recommend alligator in vegetable tanning (chocolate brown or black) or shell cordovan. Alligator with regular grain and natural patina is perfect for the understated style of the sunburst dial, while shell cordovan offers a natural structure that molds to the wrist over time. Both paired with contrasting stitching enhance the watch's manufacturing quality.

No. A 20 mm strap is not compatible with the 428.18.39.60.05.001, which requires 19 mm lugs. Using a 20 mm would create excessive space between the strap keeper and the lug, causing instability and the risk of the strap slipping during wear. It is essential to respect the correct lug width, even if less common on the market.

Durability depends on the tanning and individual wear rate. Quality vegetable-tanned alligator typically lasts 3-5 years with daily use, then begins to show cracks due to constant flexing. Shell cordovan is more durable (5-7 years) thanks to its natural structural density, although it gradually thins. Exposure to sweat, moisture and sunlight accelerates aging. Casati Milano provides an 18-month warranty on artisanal straps, covering manufacturing defects.
