Strap for PR 100 Quartz 38 Stainless Steel / Silver / Strap

The Tissot PR 100 T049.410.16.032.01 features lugs measuring 20mm in width. This dimension, measured between the inner edges of the case attachments, determines compatibility with straps of the same lug width. You can verify this measurement by placing a ruler across the upper or lower lug area of the watch case.

The optimal strap choice depends on intended use and personal aesthetic preferences. For formal occasions, we recommend black or dark brown alligator; for daily elegance, vegetable-tanned calf leather in cognac or dark brown shades; for sport-oriented wear, a grey or navy nylon NATO strap offers practicality and durability. For premium selections, shell cordovan delivers superior tactile quality and exceptional patina development.

Changing the strap on the Tissot PR 100 T049.410.16.032.01 requires a spring bar tool or pry bar. Position the tool in the lateral notch of the lug, applying gentle upward pressure to disengage the spring bar from the upper lug. Repeat for the lower lug. Insert the new 20mm strap into the lugs, ensuring stable and symmetrical contact on both sides.

All straps with a 20mm lug width are compatible with the Tissot PR 100 T049.410.16.032.01, regardless of manufacturer or material. Vegetable-tanned leather, alligator, calf, rubber, NATO, and elastic fabric straps in 20mm fit perfectly into the case lugs. Milano Straps offers a curated selection of bespoke 20mm straps, customisable to your preferred colour and material specifications.

Leather strap longevity depends on intensity of wear, environmental conditions (humidity, direct sunlight), and maintenance practices. A vegetable-tanned calf strap worn daily on a Tissot PR 100 typically lasts 3–5 years; alligator leather, being more robust, can reach 6–7 years. Proper storage (avoiding humidity and direct light exposure) and regular cleaning significantly extend strap lifespan. Patina development and natural colour changes are inherent characteristics of leather, not defects.
