Strap for Artix Pointer Day Date Stainless Steel / Silver

The lug width is precisely 21mm. This measurement is determined by the geometry of the 42mm case and the internal spacing between the lugs. To verify, measure the case's internal opening with a digital calliper, positioned perpendicular from lug to lug. Once confirmed, you can select any strap from our 21mm category.

It depends on your intended use and dial colour. For daily elegance, natural alligator or vegetable-tanned calf create a sophisticated dialogue with the case's satin finish. For tactical versatility, a thick polyamide NATO or structured rubber guarantee practicality without aesthetic compromise. Casati Milano offers complimentary consultation to identify the perfect pairing for your style.

The Oris Artix uses standard spring bars to attach the strap to the lugs. Required: a Y-shaped strap remover tool, a flat work surface, and patience. Position the spring bar beneath the lug, apply gentle inward pressure to compress the spring, then extract the pin. Repeat on the opposite lug. Insert the new pins, ensuring they click into place securely. If you prefer to avoid risk, strap-changing service is available at Casati Milano by appointment.

Any strap with 21mm lug width is compatible. Our catalogue features natural leather, alligator, vegetable-tanned calf, woven NATO, rubber, and shell cordovan, all handcrafted and tested for durability. Each strap is supplied with stainless steel spring bars certified for compatibility.

Longevity depends on material and use. A quality alligator or vegetable-tanned calf, with proper care (avoiding prolonged moisture, applying conditioner periodically), lasts 3–5 years even with daily wear. Structured rubber has longer lifespan (5–7 years), whilst polyamide NATO textile resists wear for 5+ years. Casati Milano offers restoration and regeneration services to extend strap lifespan.
