Strap for Carrera Calibre Heuer 02 44 Stainless Steel / Green / Rubber

The lug width is exactly 20mm, measured between the internal attachment points on the case. We recommend verifying with a digital calliper for perfect compatibility: the strap must fit into the attachments with a tolerance of 19.8–20.2mm, with no excessive play or constant friction.

Alligator leather with vegetable tanning is the most cohesive choice with the Carrera's motorsport heritage: the natural grain of the reptile skin dialogues with the black ceramic bezel and develops patina over time. For pure sportiness, vulcanised rubber reduces friction and doesn't absorb moisture. Shell cordovan is ideal if you want elegance without compromise on tactile quality.

The strap is changed manually through the slots of the lugs: no tools are required. Gently lift the strap from the attachments, slide the new strap through the slots from both sides simultaneously. The operation takes less than one minute and is entirely reversible without damage to the case.

Yes, provided the lug width is 20mm and the strap thickness does not exceed 3.2mm in the gliding zone. Verify that the strap does not touch the ceramic bezel during wrist movement, as ceramic is resistant but not indestructible. Milano Straps' customisable straps are constructed to TAG Heuer standards.

Durability depends on the tanning method and usage. A calf leather with vegetable tanning lasts 3–5 years with daily wear; alligator with vegetable tanning lasts 4–7 years because the fibre is denser. Vulcanised rubber has indefinite durability if not exposed to extreme temperatures. Constant exposure to perspiration, direct sunlight, and humidity reduces durability by 20–30%.
