Strap for Carrera CH80 Stainless Steel / Black / Bracelet

The lug width of the TAG Heuer Carrera CBA2110.BA0723 is 20mm. This measurement must be taken internally between the two lugs that attach the strap to the case. It is a critical dimension to ensure correct fitment and aesthetic balance between case and strap.

Alligator leather in vegetable tanning is the premier choice for the Carrera, owing to its fine grain that communicates elegance without adding bulk. French calf offers understated sophistication, NATO canvas fabric enhances the sporting DNA, and vulcanised FKM rubber is ideal for humid environments. All these materials respect the instrument's racing heritage.

Straps are changed using a dedicated spring bar tool to extract the pins connecting the strap to the lugs. Position the watch face-down on a soft surface, locate the small hole on the lug side, insert the tool to compress the spring bar and release it. Repeat on the opposite lug. Installation of the new strap is the reverse procedure: engage the spring bars into the lugs until they click into place.

Any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with the CBA2110.BA0723. However, the case diameter (41mm) and original TAG Heuer proportions must be respected to maintain aesthetic balance. High-quality artisanal aftermarket straps guarantee this compatibility without compromise.

A high-quality artisanal alligator or calf leather strap typically lasts 4–6 years with daily wear, depending on climate and frequency of use. The leather develops a patina that grows richer over time. To extend longevity, it is advisable to rotate between straps and protect them from excessive moisture. Artisanal straps from Casati Milano include an 18-month warranty.
