Suede 24mm — for dress watch and Tudor

Tudor 42010N, 42000CR, 42000CN. Panerai PAM02231, PAM02070. If you own a dress watch or vintage piece with a 24mm lug width, suede is the natural choice. Check the lug width with a ruler — the gap between the spring bar holes.

Suede at 24mm is pure discretion: it doesn't compete with the dial, it highlights without intruding. Ideal on dressy Tudor and Panerai. It holds up to wear like calfskin does. Don't wear it in the rain — the stains won't disappear.

Place a ruler between the watch's two pins — that distance is the lug width. 24mm means exactly 24 millimetres. Measure twice: once isn't enough. If you're unsure, send a photo to the atelier.

From €90. The price varies depending on the type of suede, the colour and the finishing.

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