Strap for Black Bay One 41 Stainless Steel / Blue / Bracelet

The Tudor Black Bay One 79680-0002 features a lug width of 22 millimetres. This is the standard specification across the Black Bay collection and is compatible with a comprehensive range of aftermarket straps available globally.

For the Black Bay One 79680-0002, we recommend a grade A alligator with fine grain texture, full-grain vegetable-tanned calf leather, or shell cordovan for superior durability and shape retention. We advise against thick materials or straps that would compete visually with the austere black dial.

Strap replacement requires a spring bar removal tool to extract the elastic pins (spring bars) from the lugs. Work on a soft surface to prevent scratches and replace the spring bars if worn. If unfamiliar with the procedure, we recommend visiting an authorised watchmaker.

Yes, any strap with a 22-millimetre lug width is compatible with the Tudor Black Bay One 79680-0002. Milano Straps offers a comprehensive selection of 22mm artisanal straps in premium materials, fully customisable to your specifications.

A quality leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) typically lasts 3-5 years with daily wear. Longevity depends on environmental conditions (humidity, UV exposure) and maintenance frequency. Vegetable-tanned calf improves with age, developing characteristic patina. Regular rotation of straps and proper care significantly extend durability.
