Strap for Le Locle Automatic 39.3 Stainless Steel / Silver / Strap

The lug width of the Tissot Le Locle T41.1.423.33 is 20mm. This measurement refers to the inner distance between the case lugs. Any compatible 20mm strap will fit perfectly on this model without any modifications required.

For the Le Locle T41.1.423.33, we recommend a natural alligator strap with vegetable tanning or Italian calf leather for formal occasions. For daily wear, a cotton NATO strap or Vulkanite rubber strap offers versatility. Your choice depends on intended use: ceremonies, business or casual-sport activities.

The strap is changed by unscrewing the spring bars (or pins) that connect the strap to the case lugs. Use a spring bar tool to extract the pins laterally. Once removed, the previous strap separates easily. Insert the new strap into the same lugs and reposition the pins, ensuring they are securely seated.

Yes, all straps with a 20mm lug width are compatible with the Le Locle T41.1.423.33. It is important to verify that the strap is indeed sized at 20mm (inner distance between lugs). Leather, NATO, rubber and even steel straps of the correct size will fit without issues.

A quality leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) typically lasts 3-5 years with moderate daily wear, up to 7-10 years with proper care. Durability increases with occasional or formal wear only. Protect the strap from excessive moisture, dirt and prolonged sunlight to extend longevity. The patina that develops naturally testifies to the aesthetic value of material ageing.
