FAQ
What is the lug width of the Itay Noy Maximalism MAX04?
The Itay Noy Maximalism MAX04 features a 20mm lug width. This measurement represents the internal distance between the case lugs where the watch strap's spring bars attach. Verifying this specification before purchasing an aftermarket strap ensures perfect compatibility and prevents excessive play or installation issues.
Which strap material is recommended for the MAX04?
For the MAX04, we recommend materials that engage with its maximalist design philosophy: crocodile leather for absolute luxury impact, vegetable-tanned calf for sophisticated elegance, or NATO/rubber for a contemporary, utilitarian register. Your choice depends on the aesthetic contrast you seek: black alligatore creates audacity, aged brown introduces warmth, whilst technical materials emphasise the architectural character of the case.
How do I change the strap on the MAX04?
To change the strap, use a spring bar tool to gently compress the internal spring mechanism at each lug attachment point. Once released, the bar will slide free. Align the new strap's holes with the spring bars—ensuring they are exactly 20mm—and reinsert the bars until they click into place. Proper 20mm lugs guarantee correct fit and visual harmony.
Is the MAX04 compatible with quality aftermarket straps?
Yes, the MAX04 with its 20mm lug width is fully compatible with quality aftermarket straps. Milano Straps offers a curated selection of handcrafted straps in various materials—crocodile, calf, NATO, rubber—all tested for structural compatibility and aesthetic coherence with the stainless steel case.
How long does a leather strap last on the MAX04?
A quality leather strap's lifespan depends on usage, tanning method, and climate exposure. A well-crafted alligator or vegetable-tanned calf strap typically lasts 3–5 years with daily wear, with potential extension through protective treatments. Natural ageing increases aesthetic character without compromising structural integrity. Protecting the strap from excessive moisture and prolonged sun exposure significantly extends its service life.
