Strap for Oris Artelier 01 561 7722 4953

The lug width is 14mm. This is a non-standard dimension in the aftermarket strap market, requiring careful selection of the supplier to ensure precise constructive compatibility.

For a dress watch of this proportion (28mm), straps in alligator or vegetable-tanned calf leather are the most aesthetically coherent choices. A miel alligator or hazelnut calf amplifies the constructive elegance of the timepiece whilst maintaining tactile softness and natural patina over time.

Remove the original strap by loosening the lugs with a precision screwdriver (gauge 1.2–1.5mm) on the spring bar attachments. Insert the new strap by aligning the pins with the lugs, verify that the passants accommodate the case without friction, and reposition the attachments.

Yes, provided the strap is manufactured specifically for 14mm lug width. Verify the internal width of the passant (must accommodate 14mm) and the tautness of the weave to ensure smooth sliding without loosening over time.

A high-quality leather strap (alligator or vegetable-tanned calf) guarantees 3–5 years of moderate daily wear. Longevity depends on humidity exposure, frequency of strap rotation and maintenance (protection from perspiration, gentle cleaning with dry cloth).
