FAQ
What is the lug width of the Damasko DA37?
The lug width of the Damasko DA37 is 20mm. This measurement corresponds to the distance between the two pins that attach the strap to the case. It is essential to measure this accurately using a digital calliper to ensure you purchase compatible straps.
Which strap should I choose for the Damasko Three-hand Models DA37?
For the DA37 we recommend straps in alligator with vegetable tanning, which develop a natural patina over time, or high-quality calf leather with soft spring. NATO straps in woven cotton maintain the robust aesthetic of the watch, whilst natural rubber models guarantee resistance in harsh environments. Your choice depends on the intended use: formal, daily, or sports.
How do I change the strap on the Damasko DA37?
To change the strap on the DA37, you will need a strap removal tool or a small hammer and punch. Locate the two lateral pins securing the strap to the case and gently push them from one side to the other, levering with the tool. Once the pins are released, the strap will detach. Insert the new strap, aligning it with the holes, and reinsert the pins using the same method.
Does the Damasko DA37 accept compatible aftermarket straps?
Yes, the DA37 is fully compatible with quality aftermarket straps in 20mm width. Always verify that the strap is designed for a 20mm lug width and that the pins are of the correct size. Artisanal straps made from alligator, calf, shell cordovan or technical fabrics offer alternatives to original options whilst maintaining structural integrity and longevity.
How long does a leather strap last on the Damasko DA37?
The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the quality of the material and the intensity of use. Well-maintained alligator with vegetable tanning lasts 3-5 years, developing natural patina. First-grade calf leather maintains form and functionality for 2-4 years. Woven cotton NATO straps have greater longevity, up to 5-7 years. Humidity, perspiration and sun exposure accelerate ageing; regular maintenance with natural waxes significantly extends lifespan.
