La Grande Classique L4.523.0.92.2— lug 16mm

The lug width of this model is 16 millimetres. This dimension is determined by the spacing between the upper lugs of the case and represents the standard construction specification for the L4.523.0.92.2. Always measure from inner edge to inner edge of the lug before purchasing an aftermarket strap to ensure perfect compatibility.

Mississippi alligator remains the classic choice par excellence, owing to its fine grain that harmonises perfectly with the model's sober proportions. Alternatively, calf leather with vegetable tanning offers superior tactile quality and exceptional temporal resistance. For those preferring practicality and water-resistance, a high-quality rubber strap is equally appropriate aesthetically.

The L4.523.0.92.2 is equipped with standard lugs featuring removable spring bars. To change the strap, use a dedicated tool (spring bar tool) to compress the internal spring of the bar and gently remove it from both sides. Align the new strap with the lugs and reinsert the bars until the locking click. Never force movements to avoid damaging the case.

Yes, any quality strap with a 16mm lug width is compatible with the L4.523.0.92.2. At milanostraps.it you will find a dedicated selection of 16mm straps ready for shipment, customisable in sizes, initials and stitching thread.

A high-quality alligator strap with vegetable tanning typically lasts between 3 and 5 years with regular wear and appropriate maintenance. Vegetable-tanned calf often reaches 4-6 years. Longevity depends on frequency of wear, humidity exposure, perspiration and construction quality. A shell cordovan strap, being structurally more resistant, can exceed 7-8 years. Casati Milano's warranty on all handcrafted straps is 18 months.
