Strap for 1926 28 Stainless Steel / Rose Gold / White - Diamond

The lug width of the Tudor 1926 91351-0011 is 15mm. This measurement defines the internal distance between the lugs (case suspension points). It is a standard specification for quality Swiss women's watches and requires straps specifically designed for this width. Do not confuse lug width with the total strap width worn on the wrist.

For the Tudor 1926 91351-0011, straps in alligator, shell cordovan, or vegetable-tanned calf leather are recommended. Cognac brown alligator is the classical choice, as it harmonises naturally with the rose gold case. Shell cordovan suits those seeking a vintage patina, whilst calf leather allows for more vibrant tones. Avoid fabric NATO straps, which are more appropriate for sports watches.

Strap replacement requires a specific tool: a spring bar tool (or lug width extractor). Position the extractor vertically beneath the lug, applying gentle pressure to compress the internal spring, then extract the pin. Repeat for the opposite side. Insert the new strap by aligning the holes with the pins, then secure the pins in their seats. This is a delicate operation; if inexperienced, entrust the work to a professional.

Yes, the 91351-0011 is compatible with any quality strap featuring a 15mm lug width specification. Straps from specialist artisan workshops (such as Casati Milano) are often superior to standard factory-supplied options, as they permit leather selection, personalised length adjustment, and premium finishing. Always verify that your chosen strap respects the 15mm specification to avoid fitting issues.

A quality leather strap (alligator, shell cordovan, artisan calf) typically lasts 3–5 years with daily use and proper maintenance. Longevity depends upon frequency of wear, climate exposure, and protective treatments applied. Vegetable-tanned straps age naturally and develop a desirable patina. To extend lifespan, avoid prolonged moisture exposure and periodically apply a leather conditioner.
