Strap for Aquis Date 41.5 Sun Wukong

The lug width of the Oris Aquis 01 733 7766 4185-Set is 22mm. This width is specific to this model and maintains balanced proportions relative to the 41.5mm case. To measure correctly, position a calliper between the lugs at the strap attachment point: you will obtain exactly 22mm.

For the 01 733 7766 4185-Set, several materials are recommended depending on usage: Tuscan leather in vegetable tanning for elegance and natural patina development over time; alligator for versatility and construction thinness; shell cordovan for distinctive colour evolution; FKM rubber or NATO for frequent underwater use. Choice depends on context of wear and priority between aesthetics and functional practicality.

Strap replacement requires the use of a specific tool or small flat-blade screwdriver. Locate the lug attachment pins (spring bars) at the ends of the original strap, apply gentle pressure toward the case centre to compress the internal spring of the pin, and remove the strap. Insert the new strap by aligning the lug holes with the pins, ensuring the strap engages securely on both sides.

Yes, any strap with 22mm lug width is compatible with the 01 733 7766 4185-Set. Bespoke artisan straps guarantee perfect compatibility and allow you to choose personalised materials, colours and finishes. Always verify that your strap is labelled as 22mm to ensure optimal fit.

The lifespan of a quality artisan leather strap ranges from 3 to 7 years depending on frequency of wear, humidity exposure and maintenance. Vegetable-tanned leather evolves aesthetically over time, developing a prized patina. If exposed to frequent bathing or regular immersion, consider alternating rubber straps to extend the life of the leather.
