The procedure requires a spring bar tool to extract the bars from the case lugs. Place the watch on a soft surface, position the tool under the spring, apply gentle downward and lateral pressure, then withdraw the bar. Repeat on the opposite side. Insert the bars into the new strap by reversing the process.

Yes, provided they are certified for 14mm lug width. The aftermarket offers substantial variety without quality compromise. Verify that the strap is specifically dimensioned 14mm and that the buckle or deployant clasp is of appropriate type (standard or proprietary).

A vegetable-tanned or Lombardy calf strap lasts 3–5 years with daily use, developing attractive patina during the process. Longevity depends on frequency of wear, sun exposure, humidity, and maintenance (periodic cleaning with dry soft cloth). Alligator tends to exceed 5 years. Rotating between multiple straps significantly extends each one's lifespan.
