Strap for Heritage Black Bay 32 Stainless Steel / Black / Fabric

The lug width of the Tudor Black Bay One 79580-0002 is 20 millimetres, measured between the two lugs on the case. This specification is consistent for all versions of the model, whether fitted with steel or rubber strap originally. You can verify this by removing the current strap with a spring bar tool and measuring from lug to lug using a digital calliper.

The Tudor Black Bay One 79580-0002 pairs excellently with high-grade alligator leather, satin-finished calf, or shell cordovan in dark blue, cognac brown, or black. For sports or maritime use, vulcanised rubber straps or NATO fabric with coordinated stitching are equally recommended. The choice depends on the aesthetic balance you seek between elegance and tactical functionality.

To change the strap on your Tudor Black Bay One 79580-0002, obtain a spring bar tool (or consult a specialist watchmaker). Place the watch on a flat surface, insert the tool's prong into the small slot at the lug base, lift gently to release the spring bar, and slide it out. Repeat on the opposite side. To install the new strap, align its lugs with the case, push until you hear a soft click, and verify both ends are secure.

A premium leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) fitted to a Tudor Black Bay One 79580-0002 typically lasts 3–5 years with daily wear, depending on intensity of use, tanning method, and maintenance. The leather develops a natural patina over time, adding aesthetic character. By keeping the strap dry and periodically checking the lug attachment, you can extend its longevity. Vulcanised rubber straps offer greater durability, around 5–7 years.
