FAQ
What is the lug width of the Longines Master Collection L2.793.5.72.2?
The lug width of the Longines Master Collection L2.793.5.72.2 is 21 millimetres. This dimension represents the functional space between the two lugs of the case where the strap is inserted. To verify the measurement with precision, use a digital calliper positioned perpendicularly at the centre of the lug, measuring the internal width between the pins supporting the strap.
Which strap is ideal for the Longines Master Collection L2.793.5.72.2?
The Longines Master Collection L2.793.5.72.2 in its two-tone yellow gold and steel version pairs magnificently with Nile alligator straps to amplify golden reflections, or vegetable-tanned calf leather to develop a patina that evolves over time. Shell cordovan offers a crystalline texture that dialogues with the case. For sportier combinations, canvas NATO in darker hues maintains elegance whilst restraining formality. All our 21mm straps are available in these finishes on milanostraps.it.
How do I change the strap on my Longines Master Collection L2.793.5.72.2?
To change the strap on your Longines Master Collection L2.793.5.72.2, use a high-quality spring bar tool. Position yourself inside the lug of the case and gently push the pin downwards to release the internal spring. The strap will detach on one side. Repeat the operation on the other side. Insert the new 21mm strap by snapping both pins sequentially into their housings. Ensure that the strap is centred and that the pins are fully seated in their respective lug shoulders.
Can I use a third-party strap on my Longines watch?
Yes, any artisanal strap with a 21-millimetre lug width is perfectly compatible with your Longines Master Collection L2.793.5.72.2. The fixing pins (spring bars) are standardised internationally. At milanostraps.it you will find a collection of 21mm straps crafted in Italian artisanal tradition, by true masters of leatherwork, with the option to customise dimensions, initials and stitching thread for a truly exclusive result.
How long does a leather strap last on a watch like the Longines Master Collection?
The longevity of a leather strap depends on the quality of the leather and the intensity of use. An artisanal strap made from Nile alligator, tie-dyed calf or shell cordovan, with stitching at 8 stitches per centimetre and adequate protective treatments, maintains structural integrity for between 4 and 7 years of daily wear. Vegetable-tanned leathers age nobly, evolving visually even beyond this period. To extend durability, avoid prolonged immersion, dry the strap after moisture exposure and occasionally apply a specific balm. The Casati Milano atelier provides an 18-month warranty on all customised straps.
