IWC
Da Vinci IW3750-26— lug 19mm

The lug width of the IWC Da Vinci IW3750-26 is 19mm. This measurement is critical for selecting compatible straps: it corresponds to the distance between the two inner points of the case lugs. Always verify the measurement before purchase, as an incorrect strap width would compromise both aesthetics and functionality.

For the rose gold Da Vinci IW3750-26, we recommend alligator leather with vegetable tanning in cognac or dark brown tones: the natural texture of the scales harmonises elegantly with the warmth of the precious metal. Shell cordovan represents the premium alternative for those seeking to invest in longevity and the development of distinctive patina over time.

Strap replacement requires the use of a dedicated tool (springbar tool) to remove the elastic pins (springbars) that connect the strap to the case lugs. Position the springbar in the crescent of the tool, gently lift and remove the old strap. Insert the new strap, verifying that both springbars are correctly seated in their apertures. This is a delicate operation that requires utmost care to avoid scratching the case.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on material quality, frequency of use and maintenance. A superior-quality alligator or shell cordovan maintains its structural integrity for 3-5 years with mindful daily wear. Vegetable tanning develops a natural patina that improves over time. We recommend periodically inspecting stitch integrity and gently cleaning with soft cloths to extend longevity.
