Strap for Artelier Calibre 111 Stainless Steel / Grey / Bracelet

The lug width (also called ansa width) of the Oris Artelier 01 111 7700 4063-Set 8 23 79 is precisely 23mm. This measurement is critical for compatibility: any strap designed for this watch must measure exactly 23mm in width to fit correctly into the lateral spaces of the stainless steel case.

For the Oris Artelier, premium leather straps are ideally suited—particularly calf leather from European tanneries or alligator leather. For a practical alternative, cotton NATO straps in heavy-weight construction offer authentic casualness; for formal occasions, vegetable-tanned calf leather preserves the watch's dignified design language. If the watch will see sports-elegant use, FKM rubber straps deliver grip and visibility without compromising construction integrity.

To change the strap: 1) Obtain a spring bar removal tool or small flat screwdriver. 2) Flip the watch upside down and position the tool between the strap and lug tube, pressing gently to compress the internal spring. 3) Remove the old strap. 4) Insert the spring bar ends through the new strap's holes (ensuring 23mm width), then reinsert the bar into the lug tube. 5) Release pressure; the spring will snap into position. If the new strap features a deployante, ensure the clasp faces inward before closure.

Yes, numerous artisanal strap makers produce 23mm-width straps with verified compatibility. Premium aftermarket straps—equivalent or superior in quality to Oris originals—are manufactured in Italy, Spain, and Japan. At Milano Straps, you will find a dedicated collection of 23mm straps with compatibility certification; all models are tested to fit the Oris Artelier case perfectly without play or chafing.

A quality leather strap (vegetable-tanned leather or calf) typically lasts 3–5 years with moderate daily wear. Under high-humidity conditions or continuous daily use, wear accelerates to 2–3 years. Leather requires minimal maintenance: avoid prolonged water immersion, dry after rain, and apply a neutral balm every 6–12 months to preserve patina and flexibility. For enhanced durability, FKM rubber straps last 7–10 years without maintenance.
