Strap for Quickster Chronograph Rose PVD / Silver

The lug width of the Tissot Quickster T095.417.36.037.02 is 20mm. This measurement represents the distance between the two attachment points (lugs) on the case where the strap is secured via spring bars. It is essential to verify this dimension before ordering a replacement strap, as an incorrect lug width will not fit properly to the case.

For the Quickster T095.417.36.037.02, straps that respect the sporty yet technical character of the movement are recommended. A calf leather strap with medium grain finish in dark brown or black showcases the instrumentality without adding weight. Alternatively, a robust NATO fabric or technical rubber strap emphasises the chronograph DNA whilst maintaining versatility. For formal occasions, an alligator strap with vegetable tanning in cognac creates an elegant contrast with the stainless steel.

The Quickster T095.417.36.037.02 uses standard 20mm spring bars. Obtain a spring bar removal tool (a small steel lever). Position the watch on a soft surface, insert the lever into the hole of the spring bar beneath one lug, gently push downward until the pin releases, then remove the previous strap. Insert the new strap by aligning the holes with the lugs, then compress the spring bar until it returns to its resting position. Ensure the pin is securely seated.

Yes, numerous artisanal straps are compatible with the 20mm lug width. Milano Straps offers a dedicated collection of 20mm straps in leather (alligator, calf, shell cordovan), NATO fabric, technical rubber, and vegetable-tanned leather. Each strap is tested for mechanical and aesthetic compatibility with the Quickster, with the option of customisation (length, buckle, stitching) via the website or consultation at Atelier Casati Milano.

The lifespan of a natural leather strap depends on tanning method, frequency of use, and maintenance. A calf leather strap with vegetable tanning, subjected to regular care (avoiding prolonged moisture, applying protective balms every 6-8 months), maintains structural integrity for 4-5 years. Vegetable-tanned leather develops natural patina—colour shifts due to controlled oxidation—which increases its aesthetic value over time. Alligator or shell cordovan straps, being denser leathers, achieve 6-8 years of useful life. We remind you that visible wear (minor creasing, colour shifts) is characteristic of natural leather, not a defect.
