Strap for Aquis Titan Small Second - Date Titanium / Grey / Rubber

The lug width is 20mm. This measurement represents the distance between the two spring bar lugs protruding from the case. It is essential to choose a strap exactly 20mm wide to avoid loose fit or incompatibility. Do not confuse this measurement with the thickness of the strap keeper or case profile.

Black or dark brown alligator is the most elegant and functional choice for this 46mm titanium/tungsten case. It contrasts effectively with cold metals and develops a fascinating patina over time. For professional use or actual diving, charcoal technical rubber ensures maximum grip and decade-long durability. NATO fabric offers versatility and ease of rotation.

Use a spring bar tool (dedicated pin removal implement) to gently push the spring bar from the opposite side and release the strap. Work on a soft surface to avoid scratches. Once one end is cleared, extract the bar and replace the strap. Insert the new strap by securing one side first, then push the spring bar until it clicks into place.

No, if the strap is correctly measured at 20mm. A professional artisanal strap, such as those offered by MilanoStraps, is constructed with precise tolerances and compatible materials (non-oxidising if paired with titanium). The key is to rely on qualified craftspeople who understand the requirements of diving watches.

A vegetable-tanned leather strap, worn moderately in humid but non-aquatic environments, lasts 3-5 years before showing marked aesthetic wear. If frequently submerged, durability drops to 1-2 years. Technical rubber remains the longest-lasting choice (10+ years), while carefully maintained alligator easily reaches 5-7 years. We recommend strategic rotation of professional straps.
