Strap for Royale Titane DLC / Phantom

The lug width of the Pequignet Royale Titane 9035443 / CN is 20 millimetres. This dimension is determined by the width of the case lugs and represents the intermediate standard that ensures aesthetic balance between the 44mm diameter and the overall proportions of the watch. To verify the measurement, use a digital calliper positioned perpendicularly between the lugs, excluding mechanical play from the pins.

The ideal strap depends on usage context. Dark brown alligator offers formal gravitas; shell cordovan develops a luminous patina over time; vegetable-tanned calf guarantees sustainability and chromatic evolution. For more dynamic environments, thick-woven NATO fabric or vulcanised rubber offer superior functionality. Milano Straps holds a specialist selection of 20mm straps compatible with the Royale Titane.

The strap is exchanged by removing the lug pins, accessible from the caseback or sides of the case. Use a pin remover tool with appropriate diameter to avoid damage to the lugs. The new strap must have a 20mm lug width for perfect fit. If you are not experienced with this operation, Atelier Casati Milano offers a strap-change service by appointment, ensuring precision and case integrity.

Yes, any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with the Pequignet Royale Titane 9035443 / CN. Milano Straps offers hand-crafted straps in fine leather (alligator, cordovan, calf), NATO and rubber, all certified for zero-tolerance dimensional accuracy. The important thing is to verify that the strap is specifically dimensioned for 20mm lugs, not approximate.

Durability depends on material and usage. Alligator and cordovan offer resistance of 3-5 years under daily wear conditions, developing visible patina whilst maintaining structural integrity. Calf is more delicate (2-4 years) but evolves chromatically. Prolonged exposure to moisture, direct sunlight or chlorine significantly reduce lifespan. Periodic application of specific balm and rapid drying after water contact extend strap life.
