View ProductAbout the Rolex Submariner
Launched in 1953, the Rolex Submariner is considered the father of modern dive watches. Born for professional divers, it has become a style icon worn by James Bond, Steve McQueen, and collectors worldwide.
Featuring a unidirectional bezel, Triplock crown, and water resistance up to 300 meters, the Submariner is an example of functional design that never goes out of style. Whether it's a vintage 5513, a classic 16610, or a modern 126610 in ceramic, the Submariner maintains its immediately recognizable identity.
A quality leather strap offers an elegant alternative to the Oyster bracelet, allowing you to transform the Sub from a sports watch to an evening watch without compromising its character.
Frequently Asked Questions
What strap size does the Rolex Submariner need?
All modern Rolex Submariner models (from 14060 onwards) have 20mm lugs. This applies to no-date, date, steel, and precious metal versions.
Can I fit a 19mm or 21mm strap?
No, it is essential to use the exact 20mm size. A 19mm strap would leave visible space between the strap and the lugs, compromising aesthetics. A 21mm strap would not physically fit and risks scratching the case.
Is the leather strap waterproof like the bracelet?
Leather is not waterproof like steel. Although our straps are treated to resist occasional splashes, we recommend avoiding prolonged immersion and using the original bracelet for water activities.
What color best matches the black Submariner?
The most versatile colors are:
- Black - Elegant, formal, matches the dial
- Brown/Cognac - Casual-elegant, vintage vibe
- Grey - Modern, pairs well with steel
How long does a leather strap last?
With proper care (avoid water, clean regularly, alternate with other straps), a calfskin strap lasts 2-3 years of daily use. Crocodile and alligator last even 5-7 years due to the greater resistance of their scales.
Can I customize the stitching color?
Yes, at checkout you can choose the stitching color. For the black Submariner, the most popular stitching options are:
- White (sporty contrast)
- Green (for Hulk/Starbucks)
- Black tone-on-tone (elegant and discreet)
Do you offer a Rolex-compatible deployment clasp?
Yes, we offer 316L stainless steel deployment clasps that integrate perfectly with the Submariner's aesthetics. They are more secure than a classic buckle and protect the strap from wear and tear.
