Strap for Lady-Datejust 28 White Gold - Diamond / President / Pink - Diamond

The lug width of the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279139RBR-0001 is 14mm. This measurement is taken between the inner walls of the lugs using a digital calliper and determines the exact strap width required for a correct fit.

For an 18-carat white gold case with a diamond-set bezel, a vegetable-tanned alligator strap is the most aesthetically coherent choice. Shell cordovan is an excellent alternative, offering a smooth, wax-polished surface that complements white gold beautifully. A white gold deployant clasp is the recommended hardware pairing.

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool or a fine-tipped lever screwdriver inserted into the lug holes to release the spring bars. It is advisable to work on a soft watchmaker's mat to protect the white gold case from scratches. If in doubt, entrust the operation to a qualified watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material, tanning method, and frequency of use. A vegetable-tanned alligator strap, properly maintained and rotated with other straps, can last between three and seven years while developing a distinguished patina. Prolonged exposure to water, perspiration, and perfume accelerates deterioration; removing the strap in such conditions is strongly recommended.
