Strap for Style 28 Stainless Steel / Fluted / Silver / Strap

The lug width of the Tudor Style 12110-0023 is 20 millimetres. This dimension represents the width of the space between the two attachment pins on the case and is critical for compatibility with any aftermarket strap. It is advisable to verify this measurement with a digital calliper or ruler, positioning the instrument perpendicular to the pins.

For the Tudor Style 12110-0023, straps in alligator are recommended for a formal and sophisticated look, full-grain calf leather for pronounced texture, or shell cordovan for those who appreciate the character of fine leather. For more casual contexts, rubber or canvas straps offer practicality whilst maintaining elegance. The choice depends on the intended use and personal preferences for patina and ageing.

A natural leather strap, depending on leather quality and usage, has an average lifespan of 3-5 years. Factors such as water exposure, humidity, frequency of use and preventive care (cleaning, periodic conditioning) significantly influence longevity. More noble leathers such as shell cordovan or alligator tend to last longer thanks to more robust fibre structure and the protective patina that develops over time.
