Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the TAG Heuer Aquaracer WAY1355.BH0716?
The lug width of this model is 20 millimetres. This measurement should be verified by measuring the space between the inner shoulders of the case at the strap attachment point. On a 35mm watch such as the Aquaracer, 20mm represents the proportionate standard to maintain visual balance between the case diameter and strap.
Which is the best strap for the TAG Heuer Aquaracer WAY1355.BH0716?
For this model we recommend alligator in vegetable tanning (dark brown or black), which dialogues perfectly with the ceramic and steel case. Alternatively, watchmaking-grade rubber for those practising swimming or water sports, or calfskin with delicate grain if you wish to emphasise the more formal aspect of the rose gold. Avoid overly thin straps, which would compromise the case proportions.
How do I change the strap on this TAG Heuer watch?
The WAY1355.BH0716 features an integrated bracelet attached to the lugs, which can be replaced using a spring bar tool. Insert the tool into the small lateral hole of the lug, apply gentle downward pressure to release the internal spring, and slide out the old strap. Insert the new strap, aligning it perfectly, and allow the spring to click back into place. If unsure, consult an expert: our craftsmen at Casati Milano offer strap-change services at the atelier.
Can I use an aftermarket strap on this TAG Heuer Aquaracer?
Yes, any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible. However, it is crucial to choose a model that respects the proportions of the 35mm case: avoid excessively thin or thick straps. Milano Straps' straps are specifically calibrated for this size and are customised according to your preferences for leather, colour and stitching.
How long does a leather strap last on this watch?
Durability depends on the material chosen and usage patterns. An alligator strap in vegetable tanning, subjected to normal wear, maintains structural integrity for 3–5 years before requiring renewal; calfskin typically lasts 2–4 years. Watchmaking-grade rubber, more resilient to atmospheric agents and humidity, can last 4–7 years. All Milano Straps are guaranteed for 18 months and can be refurbished by our atelier.
