Alligator 20mm — Patek Philippe Nautilus

SIZE 20MM · ALLIGATOR

Symmetrical scales, regular texture. Resists 20 years without yielding.

Louisiana alligator has a compact fibrous structure that repels moisture better than crocodile. At 20mm the advantage is evident: the leather folds without creasing, ages with increasing luster, without dulling. Saddle stitch, CITES certified calfskin lining, vegetable tanning where possible.

On a Patek Philippe 3970 or Omega 1566, the midnight blue alligator with contrast stitching is the choice. On a Tudor 79950, glossy black. Come to the atelier to choose the shade on the watch — the strap is born there, not in a catalog.

Which 20mm watches are compatible with an alligator strap?

Patek Philippe 3970, Omega 1566.56.00, Tudor 79950, Wyler Vetta WV0601 and WV0600. Check the lug width before ordering — 20mm is the distance between the bars.

Why choose alligator for a 20mm watch?

Symmetrical scales, regular texture, superior resistance to moisture. On 20mm you can see the leather's texture and the stitching detail. Pair midnight blue with the Nautilus, glossy black with the Royal Oak.

How do you measure a 20mm lug width? How do you check before ordering?

Measure between the two bars of the watch with callipers or a ruler. 20mm is the exact internal distance. Send a photo of the lugs — we'll verify it together before going ahead.

How much does a 20mm alligator strap cost?

From €150. The price varies according to the tanning method (vegetable tanning costs more than synthetic), the colour, and the buckle chosen. Exact quote available at the atelier.

Is it possible to order a 20mm alligator strap made to measure in the atelier?

Casati Milano receives by appointment at Via XX Settembre 15, Milan. We choose the leather together — the strap is born on the watch, not before.
