Strap for Style 34 Stainless Steel / Yellow Gold / Fluted / Burgundy / Strap

The Tudor Style 12313-0023 features a lug width of 20mm. This measurement, taken between the two spring bars (the small pins connecting the strap to the case), is a defining characteristic of this model. When ordering a compatible strap, ensure the specification is precisely 20mm to guarantee perfect fit and proper aesthetic contact with the 34mm case.

For the 12313-0023 we recommend a high-quality alligator with fine grain, which enhances the bicolour structure and creates elegant chromatic continuity. Alternatively, vegetable-tanned calf offers distinctive texture, whilst burgundy shell cordovan creates a sophisticated colour transition. For versatility, a black rubber strap with contrasting stitching ensures daily comfort while maintaining overall refinement.

Strap changing is straightforward: position the watch face-down on a soft cloth. Use a spring bar removal tool (or a small screwdriver) to gently press the pin from below, creating space to extract the old strap. Insert the new 20mm strap into the spring bars: the pin will snap automatically into position. Verify that both spring bars are correctly engaged before wearing the watch.

Yes, any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with the 12313-0023. Verify the width is exactly 20mm and that the strap thickness does not exceed 4-5mm, otherwise it may interfere with the case flange. High-quality artisanal straps are preferable as they maintain aesthetic balance between noble leather and case geometry.

A quality leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) typically lasts 4-6 years with moderate daily use. Durability depends on exposure to moisture, perspiration and sunlight. Alligator and shell cordovan develop a natural patina that extends their aesthetic appeal over time. We recommend periodically checking the stitching and spring bars. Casati Milano offers an 18-month warranty on bespoke straps and continuous maintenance support.
