Strap for PRS 516 Quartz Chronograph 40 Stainless Steel / Black / Strap

The lug width of the Tissot PRS 516 T91.1.428.51 is 20 millimetres. This measurement represents the distance between the two lugs on the case and determines compatibility with aftermarket straps. Verifying this dimension is the essential first step when seeking to replace the original strap with an alternative model.

We recommend alligator, shell cordovan, or vegetable-tanned leather straps for the PRS 516 T91.1.428.51. Alligator offers geometric texture and understated elegance; shell cordovan guarantees natural water resistance and remarkable elasticity; vegetable-tanned leather develops patina over time. Sporty options such as NATO and rubber are entirely compatible and ideal for outdoor and athletic use.

Strap replacement requires extraction of the spring bars from the case lugs. Use a dedicated spring bar tool to gently push the bar inward, releasing the old strap. Insert the spring bars into the new 20mm strap and reposition them at the lugs until they click into place. If you prefer to avoid risk of damage, entrust the task to a professional watchmaker.

Yes, all straps with 20mm lug width are fully compatible. Milano Straps offers a comprehensive selection of bespoke straps in alligator, shell cordovan, leather, NATO, and rubber, all engineered specifically for watches with integrated 20mm lugs. Compatibility is guaranteed by lug width specifications.

A quality leather strap—alligator, shell cordovan, or vegetable-tanned leather—typically lasts between 3 and 7 years, depending on usage patterns and maintenance. Shell cordovan offers superior longevity thanks to its inherent water resistance. Regular cleaning and proper drying after moisture exposure significantly extend strap life.
