Strap for Artelier Complication 40 Stainless Steel - Yelllow Gold / Silver / Bracelet

The lug width of this Oris Artelier model is 21mm. This measurement represents the distance between the two attachment points on the case and determines compatibility with all aftermarket straps. Verification is essential before purchasing a replacement: a ruler positioned from lug to lug provides the precise measurement.

For this 40mm case, we recommend alligator with vegetable tanning (structured grain, colour evolution over time), Shell Cordovan for durability and accelerated patina, or technical NATO for versatility. Selection depends on usage: daily elegance suggests vegetable-tanned leather; tactical versatility favours vulcanised rubber.

Strap change occurs through the recessed lugs on the case. Use a spring bar tool: insert the tip into the lug to compress the internal spring, extract the old strap, position the new one by sliding the passant into the seats. Straightforward operation if components are not forced.

Yes, any strap with 21mm lug width is compatible. MilanoStraps supplies handcrafted straps in leather, rubber and technical fabric with standardised 21mm lug width, tested for zero tolerance on this model. Always verify measurement before ordering.

A quality leather strap (alligator, cordovan) lasts 3–5 years with daily use and periodic maintenance (cleaning with damp cloth, conditioning with leather balm every 6 months). Vegetable tanning develops natural patina, extending aesthetic vitality beyond structural deterioration.
