Strap for Classic 28 Stainless Steel / Yellow Gold / Fluted / Champagne-Diamond / Bracelet

For this bi-colour case in yellow gold and stainless steel, we recommend alligator straps in black or dark brown for maximum formal occasions, vegetable-tanned calf leather in warm tones (burgundy, taupe) for daily elegance, or technical rubber with textured finishes for stylistic versatility. The choice depends on intended usage and personal preference, but all these materials harmonise perfectly with the case.

Strap replacement is performed using a spring bar tool. Position the tool in the groove of the pin, apply gentle downward pressure to release the internal spring, and pull the strap outward. Once removed, align the new strap's lugs with the case pins, ensuring the spring mechanism's return is correctly positioned before releasing the tool.

The lifespan of a leather strap on the Tudor Classic 22013-0007 depends on material type and usage patterns. Quality calf leather with moderate daily wear typically provides 3-5 years before showing significant ageing signs. Vegetable-tanned leather develops a noble patina over time. Alligator, being a denser, more structured hide, can resist 7-10 years of use. Regular maintenance (gentle cleaning, humidity protection) substantially extends working life.
