Strap for BC3 Advanced Day Date DLC / White / Rubber

The lug width of the BC3 is 22 mm. This measurement refers to the distance between the two lugs on the case where the watch spring bars are inserted. It is the standard specification for Oris's 42 mm day-date model.

It depends on your intended use. For aviation or tactical environments, a NATO in recycled nylon offers durability and practicality. For everyday elegance, alligator leather or vegetable-tanned calf leather is ideal. For aquatic or humid conditions, rubber is the most technically appropriate choice. All are compatible with the 22 mm lug width.

Remove the spring bars from the original strap using a fine-tipped screwdriver, working gently on the sides of the lugs. Insert the spring bars into the new strap, aligning them perfectly with the lug holes. Push until you feel the locking click. Avoid hammering the spring bars, which risks scratching the satin-brushed steel.

Yes, provided the lug width is 22 mm. Always verify the measurement before purchase. Milano Straps offers a variety of 22 mm straps in leather, NATO and rubber, tested for compatibility and build quality on Oris instruments in this category.

A quality leather with vegetable tanning, worn under normal conditions, lasts 3–5 years. Durability depends on sun exposure, humidity and frequency of use. Rubber and NATO straps last longer (5–10 years) as they do not degrade like biological leather.
