Strap for Pelagos Titanium / Black / Bracelet

The lug width is 22 millimetres. This measurement represents the distance between the horizontal pins connecting the strap to the case. When measuring your lugs, verify the internal space between the pins: precision to half a millimetre ensures fitting without play and without concentrated stress on the structure.

We recommend alligator with vertical grain in anthracite-grey tone to contrast with the satin titanium, or Tuscan calf with vegetable tanning to develop natural patina over time. For underwater use, NATO straps in military-grade fabric guarantee salt-water absorption without deterioration. The choice depends on use: formal for alligator, daily for calf, technical for NATO or FKM rubber.

The Tudor Pelagos 25600TN-0001 uses a standard spring bar system. Release pressure on the internal spring with a dedicated tool (spring bar tool), extract the pin from the centre of the case, then position the new strap ensuring both pins are securely seated in their respective lugs. Never force: if you encounter resistance, verify that the width is precisely 22mm.

Yes, provided the lug width is exactly 22 millimetres. An aftermarket strap must meet constructive rigour similar to the original: precise stitching, certified leathers and matte finish that does not compete visually with the case. We recommend noble leathers (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) rather than synthetic materials, which age poorly under frequent contact with titanium.

Durability depends on use and care. A quality leather strap subjected to moderate use (3-4 days weekly) maintains structural integrity for 4-6 years. Frequent contact with salt water, perspiration and UV rays accelerates ageing. We recommend rotating with at least two parallel straps and periodic cleaning with a dry cloth. A well-maintained strap can last 8-10 years if worn occasionally.
