Strap for Big Crown Original Pointer Date 40 Bronze / Blue

The lug width of this model is precisely 20mm. This is the distance between the case lugs where the strap is attached. Always verify this measurement before purchasing an aftermarket strap to ensure perfect compatibility and prevent movement or slippage.

For the Oris Big Crown in bronze, we recommend a vegetable-tanned leather strap in cognac or medium brown tones. This pairing allows the natural aging of both the bronze case and the leather to evolve harmoniously over time. Alternatively, a natural cotton NATO strap provides a functional and sportive contrast.

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool. Position the tool beneath the spring bar on one side and lift gently to release the old strap. Repeat on the opposite side. Align the new strap's holes with the case lugs and press the spring bars into position until they click. If inexperienced, consult a professional watchmaker.

Yes, any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with this model. milanostraps.it offers an extensive selection of 20mm straps in leather, NATO, and rubber, all ready to ship and fully customisable according to your aesthetic and functional preferences.

A quality leather strap, particularly one made with vegetable tanning, can last 2–4 years with daily wear. Longevity depends on ambient humidity, frequency of use, and maintenance. We recommend drying your watch after water exposure and avoiding direct heat sources. The patina and characteristic creasing are normal and desirable.
