Strap for Divers Sixty-Five 38 Cotton Candy Wild Green / Bracelet

The lug width is 19mm. This dimension is specific to this model and must be measured from the inside of one lug to the inside of the other, passing through the centre of the case. It is not compatible with standard 18mm or 20mm straps, requiring precise strap selection.

An alligator strap with vegetable tanning represents the most elegant solution, creating visual contrast between the natural grain and the regular geometry of the case. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf leather with evolving patina, NATO straps in neutral tones for sportive versatility, or structured rubber for water resistance. The choice depends on prevalent use: formal, casual-sporty, or aquatic.

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool or thin screwdriver. Insert the tool into the small lateral opening of the lug to compress the internal spring, allowing extraction from the case seat. This is a delicate operation: it is advisable to consult a professional to preserve the finish of the bronze case.

Yes, any strap with 19mm lugs is compatible. MilanoStraps artisanal straps with 19mm lug width are specifically handcrafted for this dimension, guaranteeing precise fit without lateral play or forced installation. Artisanal quality ensures longevity superior to industrial products.

A quality leather strap (alligator, vegetable-tanned calf) lasts an average of 3-5 years with daily wear, varying based on exposure to moisture and perspiration. Natural patina is a sign of evolution, not degradation. A rubber strap resists 5-7 years before losing elasticity. Periodic maintenance (conditioning with specific creams) extends longevity.
