Strap for Artelier Chet Baker Limited Edition

The Oris Artelier 01 733 7591 4084-Set LS features a 20 mm lug width, measured as the internal distance between the two lugs of the case. This standard is compatible with most 20 mm aftermarket straps, provided the strap is fitted with an appropriately sized spring bar (typically 16-18 mm for this case).

Alligator leather represents the most refined choice to enhance the formal elegance of the timepiece, particularly in dark brown or black tones. However, vegetable-tanned calf leather offers a contemporary alternative with natural grain, whilst NATO ensures daily versatility and ease of interchange. FKM rubber is ideal for sporty-urban use without aesthetic compromise.

Strap replacement is accomplished by disengaging the spring bars (metal bars) that secure the lug to the case. Using a spring bar tool or small screwdriver, press the end of the spring bar to release it from one lug, then extract the original lug. Next, position the new lug, aligning it with both lugs, and press the spring bar until it locks completely into place.

Yes, the 01 733 7591 4084-Set LS is fully compatible with premium 20 mm aftermarket straps. Thanks to the generous case proportions and sober lug geometry, it accepts both leather straps (alligator, calf, cordovan) and technical options (NATO, rubber). Ensure the spring bar employed is of the correct length (16-18 mm) to avoid irregular seating.

A premium leather strap (alligator or vegetable-tanned calf), properly maintained, has an average lifespan of 4-6 years under moderate daily use. Longevity depends on tanning method, frequency of use, exposure to moisture, and maintenance: avoid prolonged water immersion, protect from excessive humidity, and occasionally apply conditioning oil to preserve the leather structure. Rubber or NATO straps, conversely, offer superior durability (8-10 years) due to their resilience against environmental factors.
