Strap for Link Calibre 16

No, the bracelet is integrated into the case. The attachment system is proprietary and a standard strap won't fit. What I do in the atelier is craft a bespoke strap directly onto the geometry of your case, in leather, with no compromise.

I work exclusively at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, by appointment only. I take measurements directly from your case, study the interface between steel and leather, and model every detail so the strap integrates perfectly with the architecture of the 42mm case.

I prefer a robust and refined leather—calf or alligator: the Link is sporty but elegant, and the leather must hold the case's character without weighing it down. A leather that ages well, that develops patina over time.

It depends on use and care. A strap in good leather, worn regularly and looked after, lasts 5-8 years without issue. Leather ages: it loses shine, gains character, develops natural marks. That's what I like to see.

It's a deliberate choice by TAG Heuer: the interconnected bracelet isn't an accessory, it's part of the case geometry. It creates a fluid dialogue between the pieces, a structural rigidity that handles sport. That's why anyone wanting a strap needs proper artisan work, not a simple swap.
