What I'm asked about the Tissot Bridgeport T097.410.26.038.00
What strap size does the Tissot Bridgeport T097.410.26.038.00 take?
The Tissot Bridgeport T097.410.26.038.00 needs 20 mm between the lugs, usually 16 mm at the buckle. It's the size I've been fitting on it for years.
Can the strap on the Tissot Bridgeport T097.410.26.038.00 be changed?
Yes. It has spring bars between the lugs: with the right tool the strap comes off in a minute. If you'd rather not risk a scratch, I do it in the workshop.
Can I put a leather strap on the Tissot Bridgeport T097.410.26.038.00?
Yes, in 20 mm leather. On a 40 mm case a calf strap works every day; if you want something more, alligator.

A 20 mm calf strap, for every day. You'll find it ready in the 20 mm collection. If you'd rather have something built on your wrist, the Casati atelier.

Frequently asked questions
Which aftermarket strap is compatible with the Tissot Bridgeport T097.410.26.038.00?
Any 20mm strap not equipped with conventional lugs is theoretically compatible, but the integrated lug design of the Bridgeport requires bespoke construction. Milano Straps offers 20mm straps in alligator, calf leather, shell cordovan, NATO, and rubber—customizable online and mountable by Atelier Casati Milano by appointment.
How long does a leather strap last on the Tissot Bridgeport T097.410.26.038.00?
A quality natural leather strap (vegetable-tanned calf, alligator, shell cordovan) typically lasts between 4 and 7 years under normal wear conditions, developing progressive patina. Longevity depends on frequency of wear, humidity, and sun exposure. A textile NATO strap lasts 3–5 years; FKM rubber 5–10 years. Regular maintenance (neutral balm every six months) significantly extends serviceable life.
