FAQ

What is the lug width of the H. Moser & Cie Streamliner 6804-0400?

The lug width of the H. Moser & Cie Streamliner 6804-0400 is 18 mm. This measurement is specific to the model and ensures compatibility with all straps of matching width. To verify compatibility, measure the space between the lugs using a digital calliper positioned perpendicular to the watch case plane.

Which strap is best suited for the Streamliner 6804-0400?

For the Streamliner 6804-0400, we recommend straps in natural alligator or vegetable-tanned calf leather, which emphasise H. Moser & Cie's minimalist and anti-conformist philosophy. A deep brown alligator or black calf create extraordinary pairings with the stainless steel case. Versatile alternatives include pure cotton NATO straps or FKM rubber straps of superior quality, ideal for casual daily wear.

How do I change the strap on my H. Moser & Cie Streamliner?

To change the strap on the Streamliner 6804-0400, you must remove the lug pins using a dedicated tool (spring bar tool). Position the device on the internal spring, apply gentle pressure towards the centre and extract the pin. Repeat for both lugs. Insert the new strap, aligning the holes with the pins, and push until fully seated. If you lack experience, entrust the operation to professionals to avoid case damage.

Can I use aftermarket straps on my 6804-0400?

Yes, all straps with an 18 mm lug width are compatible with the Streamliner 6804-0400. Milano Straps offers a comprehensive collection of artisan-crafted 18 mm straps in leather, NATO and rubber, specifically selected to maintain the aesthetic coherence of luxury timepieces such as yours. Always verify that the width is exactly 18 mm before purchase.

How long does a leather strap last on a watch like the Streamliner?

A high-quality leather strap (natural alligator or vegetable-tanned calf) has an estimated lifespan of between 3 and 7 years, depending on usage, ambient humidity and maintenance applied. Materials such as alligator develop patina and character over time, improving aesthetically. To extend strap life, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and water, and occasionally apply conditioning products specifically formulated for luxury leather.
