Strap for Datejust 31 Stainless Steel Domed Diamond / Jubilee / Green

The lug width is 16 millimetres. This dimension is specific to the 31mm Datejust models designed for the female wrist and represents the interior distance between the lugs' edges. Always verify the lug width before purchasing an aftermarket strap to ensure correct installation.

Nile crocodile is the absolute choice of excellence for this model, thanks to its fine and regular grain that enhances elegance without affectation. Alternatively, full-grain calf leather offers softness and versatility, whilst vegetable tanning guarantees a patina that ages gracefully. For sportier interpretations, FKM rubber straps maintain the case's formal proportions.

The Rolex Datejust 31 uses telescopic pins that connect the strap to the case. To remove the strap: position the watch on a soft surface, use a strap tool or specific pressure device to gently push the pins outward, then slide the strap away. Installation follows the reverse procedure. We recommend entrusting this operation to a professional to avoid damaging the case.

Any strap with a 16-millimetre lug width is compatible with this Rolex. Milano Straps offers an exclusive collection of handcrafted straps in crocodile, calf and vegetable-tanned leather specifically designed for this dimension, available online and customisable at the Casati Milano atelier by appointment.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on usage and care. A quality crocodile strap, worn daily, has an average durability of 3-5 years before requiring replacement. Vegetable-tanned leather, more robust, can last 5-7 years whilst developing a natural patina. Milano Straps provides an 18-month warranty on manufacturing defects and offers reconditioning services to extend the strap's life.
