Strap for Longbridge British Racing Stainless Steel / Green

The lug width of the Reservoir Cars RSV01.LB/130-62s is 20mm. This measurement represents the internal distance between the lugs of the case where the strap is inserted. It is essential to verify this specification before purchasing an aftermarket strap to ensure perfect compatibility.

The Reservoir Cars RSV01.LB/130-62s pairs ideally with straps in cognac or dark brown alligator, which amplify the retro automotive atmosphere of the design. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf or black shell cordovan offer aesthetic versatility and durability over time. For sport use, a grey-slate NATO in dense fabric provides practicality without stylistic compromise.

The strap of the Reservoir Cars RSV01.LB/130-62s is removed by extracting the lateral spring bars that connect the strap to the case. Use a dedicated tool (spring bar tool) to gently lift the spring tension from its seat, then extract the bar itself. Position the new strap by aligning the holes and reinsert the bars with uniform pressure until you hear a locking click.

All straps equipped with a 20mm lug width are compatible with the Reservoir Cars RSV01.LB/130-62s. MilanoStraps offers a dedicated selection of 20mm straps in premium materials—alligator, vegetable-tanned calf, shell cordovan, NATO and FKM rubber—selected and tested for construction quality and finishing.

A natural leather strap of quality (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) has an average lifespan of 3-5 years with moderate daily use, extendable to 7-10 years with strap rotation and regular maintenance. The patina that develops over time does not indicate deterioration, but rather natural and valuable ageing. Protect the strap from excessive moisture and prolonged intense sun exposure to significantly extend longevity.
