Use a spring bar tool inserted horizontally beneath the lug, compressing the tension spring slightly until the pin releases from one lug. Remove the old strap and insert the new one, ensuring both lugs lock the pin correctly.

Yes, provided the width is exactly 21 millimetres and the seat depth matches case specifications (typically 2.5-3mm). Artisanal straps from milanostraps.it, crafted in selected leather or technical fabrics, guarantee perfect compatibility and superior longevity versus generic alternatives.

A quality leather strap (alligator, vegetable-tanned calf) lasts 5-8 years with daily use, depending on humidity, perspiration and UV exposure. Vegetable tanning develops natural patina, extending aesthetic life. Structured rubber lasts 3-5 years before hardening. Replacement is a straightforward operation requiring no watchmaking service.
