Strap for Glamour Date 31 Stainless Steel / Silver-Diamond / Strap

The lug width of the Tudor Glamour 53000-0026 is precisely 20mm. This dimension is determined by the geometry of the 31mm case and the integrated lug attachments. It is essential to measure accurately by positioning a digital calliper between the inner shoulders of the lug attachment to ensure a perfectly fitting strap.

Alligator represents the pinnacle of refinement, with fine and predictable grain that dialogues elegantly with the satin-finished steel case. Vegetable-tanned calf leather offers versatility and a patina that naturally evolves with use. Rubber straps, whilst less formal, provide pragmatism and moisture resistance, consistent with Tudor's philosophy.

Strap replacement is performed by removing the spring bars that connect the strap to the case lugs. Using a spring bar removal tool, gently compress the bar's spring to extract it from one side, slide off the old strap, and insert the new one, ensuring the bars are correctly positioned on the 20mm case attachments.

Yes, any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with the Tudor Glamour 53000-0026, provided the spring bars are of appropriate length (standard 20mm). Bespoke artisanal straps allow additional customisation of length, colour, tanning method and thread colour to suit your wrist perfectly.

The longevity of a leather strap depends on tanning method, quality and usage. A quality alligator or calf strap, worn daily, maintains structural integrity for 3-5 years. Vegetable tanning ensures natural and predictable ageing, whilst synthetic leather offers greater moisture resistance. Regular maintenance—cleaning and conditioning—significantly extends longevity.
