Strap for Royale Titane White / Fabric

The Pequignet Royale Titane 9032713CN features a lug width of 20 mm. This measurement is determined by placing a digital calliper perpendicular to the two lug horns (spring-bar attachment points). It is essential not to confuse it with other measurements such as centre-to-centre distance or overall strap length.

The ideal strap depends on intended usage. For formal and elegant contexts, we recommend alligator leather with vegetable tanning in dark brown or polished black. For everyday versatility, vegetable-tanned calf leather offers natural patina and fascinating ageing. For sporting and marine activities, ballistic nylon NATO in grey or navy blue ensures functionality and practicality. An FKM rubber strap with titanium deployante creates impeccable material cohesion.

Strap replacement is straightforward: use a strap remover or specialised pliers to gently compress the spring-bar retaining collars (1.5 mm diameter) located beneath the lugs. Once pressure is released, the lug withdraws easily. Insert the new strap by sliding the lug until the spring-bar fully engages. Never force the action: movement must be fluid and natural.

Yes, any strap with a 20 mm lug width is compatible with the Royale Titane 9032713CN, provided the attachments are sized for standard 1.5 mm diameter spring-bars. We always recommend verifying manufacturer specifications. Milano Straps offers a carefully curated selection of 20 mm compatible straps in various materials and finishes.

A quality leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) typically lasts 3-5 years with moderate daily use, potentially reaching 7-10 years with proper maintenance and rotation with other straps. Durability depends on the tanning method employed: vegetable tanning ages naturally and becomes softer; chrome tanning is more resistant but develops less fascinating patina. Excessive moisture and prolonged direct sunlight accelerate wear.
