Strap for WilliamsF1 Team Chronograph 45 Stainless Steel / Silver / Rubber

The lug width of the Oris Williams 01 679 7614 4174-07 4 24 44 is 24 millimetres. This measurement is determined by the distance between the lug pins on the watch case. It is essential to verify this dimension before purchasing an aftermarket strap to ensure complete compatibility with your timepiece.

For the Oris Williams 01 679 7614 4174-07 4 24 44, we recommend a vegetable-tanned calf leather strap in tobacco brown or cognac tones, which reflects the motorsport aesthetic of the watch. Valid alternatives include technical rubber straps for a sportier profile, or alligator if formal elegance is desired. Avoid shell cordovan, as it contradicts the austere constructive philosophy of this model.

To change the strap, remove the spring bars (elastic pins) that hold the original strap to the case lugs. You can use a spring bar tool to extract the pin without scratching the case. Then insert the elastic pins into the new 24mm strap and position them back into the lugs. If the spring bars are worn, replace them with new ones of identical length.

Yes, any strap with a 24-millimetre lug width is compatible with the Oris Williams 01 679 7614 4174-07 4 24 44. You must ensure that the strap width matches the original and that the spring bars are of correct length. Milano Straps offers a complete selection of 24mm straps specifically tested on this model.

A quality leather strap (calf, alligator) has an average lifespan of 3-5 years with daily wear, depending on exposure to perspiration, moisture, and cleaning frequency. Vegetable-tanned leather tends to last longer as it develops patina and strengthens over time. Rubber or NATO straps typically have a longer lifespan (5-7 years). Regular maintenance extends the life of the strap regardless of material.
