Glashütte Original
Pano 1-90-12-02-12-04— lug 19mm

The lug width of the Glashütte Original Pano is 19 millimetres. This intermediate width results from the proportional study of the 39.40 mm case and requires a specifically calibrated strap to maintain the watch's aesthetic harmony.

For the Pano we recommend three options: alligator for formality and uniform pattern, vegetable-tanned calf for developing natural patina over time, and shell cordovan for structural density and resilience. The choice depends on primary use: office, daily wear, or formal sports context.

Use a spring bar tool to gently lift the internal lugs of the spring bar. Proceed one lug at a time, resting the watch on a soft surface to prevent case scratches. Ensure the pins are fully inserted into the case lugs before releasing tension.

Yes, provided the strap is calibrated to a 19 mm lug width. Artisanal custom-made straps guarantee optimal compatibility. Avoid standard 18 mm or 20 mm straps, which would alter the visual proportions of the case.

A quality artisanal calf or alligator strap develops visible patina and wear after 12-18 months of daily use. Structural durability extends to 3-5 years before restoration is required. Wear acceleration depends on humidity, sun exposure frequency, and wrist perspiration.
