The Heritage

The Apple Watch Edition was launched in 2015 as a premium version of the Cupertino-based company's smartwatch. It features the Apple Watch caliber with chronograph, perpetual calendar, moon phases, and alarm functions. The device offers hour, minute, second, and world time indications through a digital display.
Made to Measure

The strap for this watch is made to measure

On the Apple Watch Edition the bracelet is drawn as part of the case: no catalogue strap will fit. In the atelier we take the measurements on the watch itself and build the strap on the piece — that is the work of Casati Milano.

FAQ

Can you fit a standard strap on the Apple Watch Edition MJ8Q2LL?

No. The bracelet is integrated into the case and the attachment is proprietary: no off-the-shelf strap will fit. I build everything from scratch in the atelier — a bespoke connector, modelled precisely to your case.

How does the bespoke strap process work for this Apple Watch Edition?

Visit <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a> by appointment. I take measurements directly from your case, photograph the proprietary attachments, and craft the strap in the workshop. It's the only way to honour Cupertino's geometry.

Which leather do you prefer for an Edition like this?

Mississippi alligator in honey tone. Ceramic and yellow gold ask for a leather that ages with grace, not one that fades. Alligator develops a warm, deep patina: after six months, it speaks to the case perfectly.

How long does a well-made strap last?

With daily wear and basic care — the occasional gentle clean, no constant soaking — eight to ten years. Noble leather ages; it doesn't die. Treat it with respect, and the strap only becomes more beautiful.

Why does an Edition in ceramic deserve a properly made strap?

Because Apple chose noble materials and uncompromising geometry. A ceramic and gold case demands a strap that matches its standard: not an accessory, but a finished object crafted with equal care. I've seen it countless times — when fine watches find their proper companion.
