FAQ
What is the lug width of the Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59 26398BC.OO.D002CR.02?
The Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59 26398BC.OO.D002CR.02 is fitted with a 20 mm lug width. To verify this on your own timepiece, simply measure the internal distance between the two lugs using a caliper or millimeter ruler, positioning it parallel to the case.
What is the best strap for the Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59 26398BC.OO.D002CR.02?
For this white gold reference with ultra-complicated caliber, a polished or semi-matte alligator strap is the most formally coherent choice. Alternatively, a natural patina box-grain calf leather offers a more contemporary aesthetic. It is important that the strap respects the integrated lug taper and that the buckle or deployant clasp is in white gold or brushed steel.
How do you change the strap on the Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59 26398BC.OO.D002CR.02?
The CODE 11.59 attachment system features integrated lugs with a curved profile. Replacement requires a dedicated spring bar tool with a fine, angled tip. It is advisable to entrust this work to a watchmaker or specialized atelier to avoid scratches on the white gold case or damage to the strap lugs.
Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59 26398BC.OO.D002CR.02?
Yes. Aftermarket 20 mm straps with curved or straight ends that are compatible with the CODE 11.59 profile are available on milanostraps.it. It is essential to choose models with the correct taper and materials befitting the value of the timepiece, such as high-quality alligator or calf leather.
How long does a leather strap last on an Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59?
The lifespan of a leather strap depends on leather quality, frequency of use, and exposure to perspiration and environmental factors. An artisanal-quality alligator or calf strap, with regular wear and proper care, can last 18 to 36 months before requiring replacement. Casati Milano offers an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects on all made-to-order straps.
