FAQ
What is the lug width of the Longines Présence L4.320.1.11.7?
The lug width of the Longines Présence L4.320.1.11.7 is 16mm. This dimension is specific to this compact model and represents the internal distance between the two metal lugs where the strap is inserted. To measure correctly, position a ruler at the inner point of the lug, excluding the outer metal ring entirely.
What strap material is most suitable for the Longines Présence L4.320.1.11.7?
For the Présence L4.320.1.11.7, premium alligator leather is ideal, as its rectangular grain dialogue elegantly with the minimalist lines of the case. Valid alternatives include vegetable-tanned calf leather (which develops a rich patina over time) and shell cordovan. For intensive daily use, high-quality canvas NATO or vulcanised rubber maintain the watch's versatile character.
How do I change the strap on the Longines Présence L4.320.1.11.7?
The strap is changed by removing the two spring bars (small pins) that connect the strap to the case at the lugs. Use a dedicated spring bar tool to gently push the retractable pin and slide the strap outward. Insert the new strap by aligning the holes and reinsert the pins until you hear a small click confirming secure placement. Avoid sudden impacts that could dislodge the pins.
Can I use an aftermarket strap compatible with the Longines Présence L4.320.1.11.7?
Yes, any strap with a 16mm lug width is compatible with the Longines Présence L4.320.1.11.7. It is essential to verify that the strap's thickness (approximately 3-4mm at the tip) allows for comfortable insertion. Artisanal straps from Milano Straps are specifically manufactured for this size and guarantee superior construction quality compared to standard models.
How long does a leather strap last on the Longines Présence L4.320.1.11.7?
A premium leather strap (alligator or vegetable-tanned calf) has an average lifespan of 4-6 years of daily use, varying according to sun exposure, humidity, and frequency of wear. With proper maintenance (regular cleaning, occasional application of nourishing creams), durability can be extended. Artisanal straps from Casati Milano include an 18-month warranty and can be refurbished or replaced at the atelier.
