Strap for Carrera Quartz 36 Rose Gold / Black / Alligator

The lug width of the TAG Heuer Carrera WBG1351.FC6418 is 20mm, a historic standard of the Carrera collection that ensures balanced proportions on a 36mm case diameter. This measurement creates perfect visual continuity between the case lugs and a custom strap, enhancing the proportional harmony of the design.

Alligator leather in vegetable tanning represents the most refined choice, as its characteristic grain beautifully complements the geometric rationality of the dial and amplifies the warm tones of the rose gold case. Fine calf or shell cordovan are also excellent for those who appreciate noble leathers that evolve aesthetically over time.

To change the strap, position the watch on a soft cushion or stable watch holder. Using a spring bar tool, gently press downward on the internal spring of the lug to release the pin. Remove the old strap and insert the new one by aligning the holes perfectly with the case lugs. Verify that the strap is securely fixed before wearing the watch.

Yes, any strap with a 20mm lug width is perfectly compatible with the WBG1351.FC6418. It is important to verify that the strap width corresponds exactly to the 20mm case measurement and that the attachments are symmetrical. Personalised Milano Straps guarantee technical compatibility and superior construction quality.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material and usage: alligator and shell cordovan in vegetable tanning resist 3-5 years with regular maintenance, fine calf 2-4 years. Exposure to moisture, direct sunlight and perspiration accelerates ageing. Milano Straps benefit from an 18-month warranty and can be regenerated or replaced as needed to preserve the watch.
