Strap for Visodate Automatic Yellow Gold PVD / Silver / Strap

The lug width of the Tissot Heritage T019.430.36.031.01 is 20.00mm. It is measured between the internal attachment points of the case where the spring bars are inserted. This width is specific to the model and ensures optimal proportions between the 39.30mm case and the wrist. Any compatible strap must respect this dimension precisely to avoid play or excessive pressure.

The ideal strap depends on the context of use. For formal elegance, we recommend leather in shell cordovan or vegetable-tanned calf, in colours such as burgundy, cognac, or light brown. For versatility and water resistance, a nylon NATO or black FKM rubber strap is recommended. The strap should feature a steel deployante clasp for optimal stability and micrometre adjustment.

Strap replacement involves removing the spring bars from both sides of the case. Using a dedicated tool or a fine-tip screwdriver, gently push the spring bar pin inward until it exits the seat. Extract the old strap and insert the new one by aligning the holes with the bars. Apply firm pressure until you hear the click of engagement. Repeat on the other side. Atelier Casati Milano provides detailed instructions to every client.

Yes, any strap with a 20.00mm lug width is compatible with the Tissot Heritage T019.430.36.031.01. Atelier Casati Milano manufactures bespoke handcrafted straps in leather (alligator, shell cordovan, calf), NATO, and rubber. We recommend artisanal-quality straps to preserve the aesthetics and longevity of your watch.

A quality leather strap, under regular daily use, has an average lifespan of 4–6 years before showing significant signs of wear (cracking, edge thinning). Vegetable-tanned leather ages by developing natural patina, extending its aesthetic value. Durability depends on leather quality, frequency of use, environmental humidity, and maintenance (protective strips, air-drying after water contact). Rubber FKM or NATO straps last 5–8 years.
