Strap for Carrera Date 36 Stainless Steel / Green - Diamond

The lug width of the TAG Heuer Carrera WBN2317.BA0001 is precisely 20 millimetres. This measurement represents the distance between the pins that connect the bracelet to the case lugs and determines compatibility with any aftermarket strap. To verify, measure from shoulder to shoulder of the upper lugs: you will find exactly 20 millimetres, a strict standard for this Carrera generation.

The ideal strap depends on intended use and personal preference. For formal elegance, cognac-coloured alligator with natural linen stitching creates refined contrast with the black dial and brushed steel case. For those who value longevity and patina development, vegetable-tanned calf leather develops aesthetic depth over time. For sporting versatility, cotton or linen NATO fabric guarantees breathability and practicality. High-quality rubber echoes the technical heritage of the original instrument.

Strap replacement requires only extracting the spring bars that unite the bracelet to the case. Using a spring bar tool, apply gentle pressure to one pin to release it, extract it completely, and reinsert it into the new 20-millimetre strap, ensuring correct pin orientation. The process is entirely reversible and requires no advanced technical skills.

Yes, completely. Any strap manufactured for 20-millimetre lug width is geometrically compatible with the TAG Heuer Carrera WBN2317.BA0001. We recommend selecting straps of superior construction quality: leather thickness of at least 1.5 millimetres, regular stitching, robust buckle. Milanostraps.it straps adhere to these standards and include durability guarantees.

Durability depends on leather type and usage patterns. Premium alligator or calf leather with vegetable tanning can endure 5-7 years of daily wear before replacement, developing desirable patina throughout. Straps crafted with traditional leather techniques age nobly. The 18-month guarantee from Casati Milano covers manufacturing defects, but real longevity depends on maintenance: drying after water exposure, protection from prolonged humid environments.
