Strap for Lady-Datejust 28 Rose Gold / Fluted / Rose - Diamond / President

The lug width of the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279175-0029 is 14 mm. This measurement is specific to the 28 mm case and differs from other Datejust variants such as the 31 mm (16 mm lugs) or the 36 mm (20 mm lugs). Always verify the lug width using a digital calliper placed inside the lugs before purchasing any aftermarket strap.

For the Lady-Datejust 279175-0029 in 18kt Everose gold, a vegetable-tanned alligator strap offers the most coherent pairing: the grain texture complements the fluted bezel, and the natural patina develops harmoniously over time. For more active wear, a vulcanised FKM rubber strap is a practical alternative. All straps must feature a 14 mm lug width.

The strap on the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279175-0029 is removed using a fine-tipped springbar tool, applying gentle pressure to release the springbars within the lugs. It is advisable to work on a soft surface to protect the Everose gold case from scratches. If in doubt, entrust the operation to a qualified watchmaker or to the Casati Milano atelier.

Vegetable-tanned alligator straps tend to have the longest lifespan due to their dense fibre structure. Prolonged exposure to water and cosmetics should be avoided. Casati Milano straps are covered by an 18-month manufacturing defect warranty.
