Strap for Divers Sixty-Five 42 Stainless Steel / Blue / NATO

The lug width is precisely 21 millimetres. This measurement represents the distance between the two case lugs where the strap is fitted. It is a specific width reserved for Divers 65 models with 42mm cases and is not compatible with standard 20mm or 22mm straps.

It depends on your intended use. For daily elegance, we recommend alligator or vegetable-tanned calf leather in burgundy, brown, or black. To preserve its authentic diving vocation, a rubber Tropic strap or canvas NATO ensures practicality and durability in humid environments. A steel deployante offers convenience and modularity.

Use a dedicated spring bar tool: insert the thin tip underneath the spring bar from above, apply downward pressure until the bar emerges from the lower lug. Repeat on the opposite lug. During reassembly, ensure the bar traverses both lugs completely, avoiding excessive pressure that could deform the edges.

Yes, completely. All straps with 21mm lug width fit perfectly onto the case lugs. Compatibility is guaranteed by the technical specification, regardless of strap brand. Milano Straps offers handcrafted 21mm straps in Italian leather, rubber, and NATO, selected for construction quality.

A high-quality leather strap, under moderate use, lasts 2-4 years. Durability depends on tanning: vegetable tanning ages nobly, enriching colour and patina, but remains more fragile in very humid environments. For frequent wet situations, rubber Tropic or NATO significantly extends the operational lifespan of the strap.
