Strap for 1926 36 Stainless Steel / Silver

The lug width (ansa) of the Tudor 1926 91450-0001 is 19mm. This width is specific to the model and determines compatibility with aftermarket straps. Always verify with a digital calliper that the new strap has 19mm lugs, measuring the narrowest section of the lug seat.

For the Tudor 1926 we recommend Louisiana American alligator or Nile African alligator for uncompromising elegance, or shell cordovan for those desiring a patina that evolves over time. Both maintain the aesthetic balance of the 36mm dial. Rubber is useful only for frequent sporting environments.

Remove the current lugs using a spring bar tool, pushing inward to release the spring. Verify that the new strap's lugs are 19mm, insert them into the watch lug slot and ensure they fit without play. Do not force: if the lugs do not enter smoothly, check the measurement.

Any strap with 19mm lugs is compatible. The finest are alligator, shell cordovan and vegetable-tanned leather. Online at milanostraps.it you'll find ready-made straps in various leathers and colours, customisable in length, initials and thread colour. Always verify technical specifications before purchase.

A quality alligator strap lasts 4-6 years with moderate daily wear. Shell cordovan, due to its density, can reach 7-8 years. Lifespan depends on sun exposure, humidity and use. Casati Milano straps include an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
