Strap for Artix GT Chronograph Stainless Steel - Ceramic / Black / Rubber

The lug width of the Oris Artix GT is 22 millimetres. This measurement is the internal distance between the case lugs and is standard for all straps compatible with this chronograph model. On milanostraps.it, you can browse the complete collection of 22mm straps, ranging from classic leather to sporty rubber and canvas options.

For the Artix GT chronograph, the Rally Traforato strap in cognac brown is the ideal pairing: the warm tone of the leather echoes the historical automotive aesthetic and dialogues perfectly with the silver-grey dial of the 44mm case. For variants with blue or black dials, we recommend alligator or rubber straps in matching colours. Canvas straps offer daily versatility without sacrificing the sporty character declared by the chronograph.

To change the strap, you must remove the spring bars from the case using a dedicated pin removal tool—alternatively, a small lever or toothpick can work in a pinch. Position the watch with the case face down and gently press against the outer shoulder of the bar to slide it out. Once the bars are removed, the original strap will detach easily. For installation of the new strap, align the holes and reinsert the bars carefully, ensuring they click fully into position. All Milano Straps 22mm straps are prepared for this operation.

Yes, any strap with 22mm lug width is fully compatible with the Artix GT, regardless of brand. International standardisation of spring bars guarantees complete interchangeability. Milano Straps offers a curated selection of handcrafted 22mm straps made in Italy, with choices between full-grain leather, cotton, rubber and shell cordovan, all tested for durability and longevity.

A quality leather strap, worn daily on a 44mm chronograph, has an average lifespan of 3-5 years before requiring replacement. Longevity depends on tanning method, leather thickness and frequency of wear. Vegetable-tanned leathers develop a beautiful patina and maintain structure over years, whilst synthetic or under-treated leathers tend to become brittle. Milano Straps uses exclusively vegetable tanning to guarantee natural and beautiful ageing: the leather will become softer and richer in hues, not fragile. To extend lifespan, we recommend alternating with rubber or canvas straps during summer and protecting the leather from excessive moisture.
