Strap for Artelier Date 31 Stainless Steel / Silver

The lug width of the Oris Artelier 01 561 7687 4071-07 5 14 70FC is 16 mm. This dimension is standard for replacement straps and has been calculated by Oris to maintain proportional balance between the 31 mm case and the wrist. Measuring the lug width correctly is essential to ensure strap compatibility and stability.

For the Oris Artelier 01 561 7687 4071-07 5 14 70FC, we recommend straps in superior vegetable-tanned leather (alligator or calf), or shell cordovan. Alligator offers pronounced grain and develops natural patina over time. Box Calf leather guarantees discreet elegance. Dense NATO fabric is recommended for versatility in daily use.

The strap is changed by removing the spring bars that connect the strap to the case. Use a dedicated strap-changing tool or consult a certified watchmaker. The procedure takes approximately 5 minutes. Ensure the new strap has a 16 mm lug width and that the lugs are properly proportioned to the case.

Selecting an aftermarket strap allows you to personalise the watch whilst maintaining aesthetic coherence.

A quality leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) with vegetable tanning guarantees 3 to 5 years of daily wear, depending on care and climatic exposure. Leather tends to dry and develop cracks over time. Periodic maintenance (conditioning with natural wax) extends durability. Vulcanised rubber straps last longer (5-8 years) but deteriorate equally with wear.
