Strap for Black Bay One 39 Stainless Steel / Black / Bracelet

The lug width of the Tudor Black Bay One M79660-0001 is exactly 21mm. This measurement is specific to this model and ensures complete compatibility with all straps produced by Milano Straps in the 21mm category. Always verify the distance between the case lugs (not the width of the mounted strap) to avoid incorrect purchases.

For the Black Bay One 79660-0001, we recommend alligator leather in satin or semi-polished finishes, as it naturally complements the brushed case. Vegetable-tanned calf develops an attractive patina over time. If you use the watch for diving, technical FKM rubber is the optimal choice. NATO straps remain a versatile and practical solution for intensive daily wear.

The change is made by removing the spring bars that connect the strap to the case lugs. Use a dedicated tool (spring bar tool) to compress the pin laterally: the strap will detach easily. Align the new strap's holes with the lugs, then reinsert the pin until it clicks into place. The operation takes just minutes and requires no specialised tools. Milano Straps provides photographic details for each strap.

Yes, absolutely. The 21mm lug width is a widely supported standard in the aftermarket strap market. Milano Straps straps in this size are completely compatible with the Black Bay One. Using aftermarket straps does not affect the Tudor warranty and allows you to diversify the watch's aesthetics while maintaining its functional integrity.

A quality leather strap (alligator or vegetable-tanned calf) typically lasts 3-5 years with daily use, considering regular maintenance. Factors affecting durability include sun exposure, environmental humidity, cleaning frequency, and use patterns. Vegetable-tanned calf develops a beautiful patina over the years, whilst alligator better maintains its structure. Technical rubber, with proper care, can last 5-7 years.
