Strap for Glamour Double Date Stainless Steel / Black-Diamond / Bracelet

The lug width of the Tudor Glamour 57100-0004 is 20mm. This measurement is fixed and represents the distance between the internal surfaces of the case lugs where the strap ends attach. To verify it correctly, place a ruler perpendicular to the lug shoulders, measuring from the inside of one shoulder to the other. A 20mm lug width ensures compatibility with a vast catalogue of artisan straps available online without requiring adapters or modifications.

For the Tudor Glamour 57100-0004, we recommend an alligator strap with vegetable tanning or a smooth calf leather with the same tanning method. These materials emphasise the formal elegance of the model and develop a natural patina over time that contrasts beautifully with the 904L stainless steel case. If you prefer a sportier character, a ballistic canvas or NATO strap keeps the timepiece versatile. Avoid straps with glossy or plasticated finishes, which would clash with the understated aesthetic of the Glamour.

To change the strap, position the watch with the lugs facing towards you. Use a dedicated tool (spring bar tool) to gently push the spring of the lug towards the centre of the case, leveraging the groove on the lug shoulder. Once the spring is compressed, the lug will retract enough to allow you to remove it completely. Insert the new strap by following the reverse procedure, ensuring the spring expands correctly into the case lugs. Never force: if you encounter resistance, recheck the alignment.

Absolutely. The Tudor Glamour 57100-0004 features standard 20mm lugs, which are perfectly compatible with quality aftermarket straps. Artisan straps in alligator, vegetable-tanned calf, shell cordovan or vulcanised rubber fit without issue and without damaging the case. We recommend choosing specialised suppliers that guarantee well-finished straps with precise stitching and correctly shaped lug ends for stainless steel.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the tanning method, usage and maintenance. A vegetable-tanned quality artisan strap typically lasts between 3 and 8 years of daily wear, developing a rich, personalised patina over time. A shell cordovan strap, being more resistant, can last over 10 years. A top-quality alligator strap can reach 12-15 years. To extend lifespan, avoid prolonged exposure to water, humidity and direct sunlight. Occasional maintenance with leather-specific balms preserves flexibility and slows wear.
