Strap for Split-Seconds Chronograph 5950 Stainless Steel / Blue / Bracelet

The lug width is 18mm. This specific measurement allows you to fit compatible straps and bracelets to the case lugs. It is essential to verify this width before purchasing a replacement strap to ensure proper fit on the case spring bars.

For this steel sports chronograph, we recommend Mississippi alligator with polished or grain finish, or premium calf leather with vegetable tanning for those preferring a more natural aesthetic. Alligator offers durability and develops patina over time; calf ensures comfort and softness. The choice depends on daily wear or formal occasions.

The strap is mounted via spring bars positioned beneath the case. Use a spring bar tool to compress the pins, remove the worn strap, and insert the new one. If inexperienced, consult a qualified watchmaker. With Casati Milano, you can follow your strap customisation via WhatsApp and receive mounting instructions.

A quality leather strap with vegetable tanning and artisanal construction typically lasts 3-5 years with daily wear, developing an attractive patina over time.
