Strap for Rectangular Date 25.9 Stainless Steel / Silver / Bracelet

The Oris Rectangular 01 561 7620 4061-07 8 16 75 features a 16mm lug width, a measurement specific to Oris's rectangular ladies' cases. This dimension is determined by the 25.90mm case diameter proportions and ensures visual and aesthetic balance. Measure the distance between the attachment lugs on the case to verify compatibility of any aftermarket strap.

For the stainless steel Rectangular, we recommend a strap in alligator or shell cordovan with vegetable tanning: these materials enhance the rigid geometry of the case through tactile contrast and natural patina development over time. For a sporty approach, a NATO strap in heavy canvas maintains visual lightness on a miniaturised case. Rubber represents the pragmatic solution for those seeking durability and ease of maintenance.

The Rectangular uses standard attachments, not springbars. Remove the strap using a sprung lug remover tool, applying gentle and controlled pressure to the case flanks. Never force with pointed tools that could scratch the stainless steel. Insert the new strap by aligning the attachment holes with the 16mm lugs until you hear the locking click.

All straps featuring a 16mm lug width are compatible with the Rectangular. On Milano Straps you will find options in leather (alligator, shell cordovan, vegetable-tanned calf), NATO canvas, and technical rubber. Always verify that the strap explicitly declares 16mm lug width to ensure correct fit without requiring adapters.

A premium leather strap (alligator or shell cordovan with vegetable tanning) lasts 4-6 years in daily use, developing patina and character over time. Vegetable-tanned calf tends to age more quickly, with visible wear appearing after 2-3 years of frequent moisture contact. Maintain the strap by avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and salt water; occasionally apply a specific leather balm. NATO and rubber require minimal maintenance and last 5-8 years with equivalent usage.
