Strap for Artelier Date 40.5 Stainless Steel / Silver / Bracelet

The lug width of the Oris Artelier 01 733 7670 4071-07 8 21 77 is 21 mm. This measurement represents the internal distance between the two lugs of the case, measured wall-to-wall. It is essential to respect this dimension when selecting a replacement strap, as it determines exact compatibility with the spring bars and attachment pins.

The ideal strap depends on your style and requirements. An alligator strap in vegetable tanning with a cognac brown tone emphasises the watch's formal elegance; a shell cordovan calf develops a rich patina over time; a NATO strap in grey or black offers sporty versatility; a black FKM rubber ensures practical everyday wear. All these options in 21 mm size are available at MilanoStraps with bespoke customisation.

The strap is changed by extracting the lateral attachment pins using a dedicated tool (spring bar tool). The pins, which must be compatible with the 21 mm lug width, are compressed slightly to release them from the slots situated inside the lugs. We recommend seeking expert assistance during the first strap change. If your strap is equipped with a click deployant, the change becomes even faster and requires no tools.

Yes, any high-quality 21 mm strap is compatible with your Oris. MilanoStraps and Casati Milano offer a carefully curated selection of artisanal straps in this size, crafted from noble materials (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) with bespoke finishing. Compatibility is guaranteed; quality of manufacture is not, which is why it is important to rely on experienced craftsmen.

A well-crafted leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) typically lasts 3–5 years with moderate daily use. Longevity depends on perspiration, humidity, frequency of wear and care. A vegetable-tanned leather ages better and develops character over time; regular maintenance (hydration, protection from moisture and intense heat) significantly extends the strap's lifespan. MilanoStraps provides specific care instructions with every strap purchased.
