Strap for World Time Date 5330 White Gold / Blue

The Patek Philippe Ref. 5330G-001 features a 20-millimetre lug width. This dimension is determined by the geometry of the 40mm case and must be measured precisely between the inner shoulders of the lugs to ensure compatibility with aftermarket straps.

For a World Time in white gold, alligator represents the most appropriate choice: fine grain and light absorption that emphasise the sophistication of the complication. Shell cordovan is also excellent for those seeking an evolved patina over time. Vegetable-tanned calf is ideal for warm climates and visible ageing.

Changing the strap requires a spring bar tool (strap remover) to gently extract the pins securing the lug to the case. Position the watch with the lug side facing downwards, insert the tool into the discharge hole and press to release the pin. Once removed, the new 20mm strap is inserted in the reverse sequence. If you prefer to avoid the risk of scratches, consult a specialist watchmaker.

Yes. On milanostraps.it you will find a complete selection of artisanal 20mm straps compatible with the 5330G-001. They are available in alligator, shell cordovan, vegetable-tanned calf and technical fabrics. With Casati Milano you can also customise the strap in the Milan atelier, choosing leather, colour and buckle according to your preferences.

A high-quality artisanal alligator or shell cordovan strap typically lasts 3-5 years with daily use, depending on climate and perspiration. Vegetable-tanned calf tends to age more rapidly, developing visible patina within 12-18 months. The 18-month warranty on manufacturing defects covers construction quality regardless of natural wear.
