Frequently asked questions
What is the correct lug width for the Tissot PRX T137.010.11.056.00?
The lug width of the Tissot PRX T137.010.11.056.00 is 8 millimetres. This measurement, specific to the 25mm PRX collection, represents the distance between the attachment pins that connect the strap to the case. It is essential to verify this dimension before ordering an aftermarket strap, as an incorrect lug width will not fit properly into the lug slots, compromising both aesthetics and security.
Which type of strap is best suited for the Tissot PRX T137.010.11.056.00?
The Tissot PRX T137.010.11.056.00, thanks to its compact proportions (25mm diameter), works excellently with calfskin leather, shell cordovan, or technical solutions such as NATO or FKM rubber straps. Leather straps with vegetable tanning offer the best aesthetic balance, complementing the satinised steel case whilst developing natural patina over time. For daily or sporting use, a NATO strap provides greater durability and versatility.
How do you change the strap on the Tissot PRX T137.010.11.056.00?
Changing the strap on the Tissot PRX T137.010.11.056.00 requires a specific tool called a spring bar tool, useful for disengaging the elastic pins from the lug slots. Position the watch with the lugs facing outward, gently insert the tool into the lug slot to compress the pin, and carefully remove the old strap. The operation requires steady hands but not excessive force: it is advisable to have a professional perform this if you lack experience.
Is an aftermarket strap truly compatible with the T137.010.11.056.00?
Yes, provided the strap features an exact 8-millimetre lug width. Milanostraps supplies straps specifically dimensioned for this width, guaranteeing constructive and aesthetic compatibility with the 25mm PRX. You can verify compatibility by checking the product technical specifications before purchase. All straps in the 8mm collection have been tested to ensure precise fitting and security in the lug slot.
How long does a leather strap last on a daily-worn watch?
The lifespan of a leather strap depends on material quality, type of tanning, and conditions of use. A good-quality calf leather strap worn daily can last 2-4 years before showing significant signs of wear; a shell cordovan strap, thanks to its superior density and natural resistance, can last 5-8 years. Exposure to humidity, heat, and perspiration accelerates ageing. A vegetable-tanned strap develops natural patina that becomes increasingly beautiful with time, whilst a technical NATO strap can last over 10 years. Regular maintenance (cleaning, drying, occasional conditioning) significantly extends useful life.
