Made to Measure

The strap for this watch is made to measure

On the Longines Record the bracelet is drawn as part of the case: no catalogue strap will fit. In the atelier we take the measurements on the watch itself and build the strap on the piece — that is the work of Casati Milano.

FAQ

What is the best strap for the Longines Record L2.321.4.76.2?

The best strap depends on intended use. For formal occasions, we recommend deep black alligator with steel deployante. For daily versatility, vegetable-tanned calf in cognac brown or tortora grey offers noble ageing characteristics. For professional or sports contexts, grey nitrile rubber ensures durability without aesthetic compromise. Shell cordovan is the choice for evening wear, thanks to its profound patina and natural lustre.

How do I correctly change the strap on the Longines Record L2.321.4.76.2?

Changing the strap requires a spring bar removal tool. Position the watch with the lug facing upward, insert the flat end of the tool into the small hole at the base of the pin, gently push to compress the internal spring and release the pin. Repeat for both pins. Insert the new strap pins into the case holes and push until you hear the locking click. Verify that the strap is firmly secured before wearing the watch.

What is the average lifespan of a leather strap for the Longines Record?

A high-quality leather strap, with proper maintenance (regular cleaning, drying after moisture exposure, annual conditioning with specific creams), typically lasts 3-5 years of daily use. Vegetable-tanned leather ages elegantly and can last beyond this period, developing character patina. Shell cordovan is renowned for superior longevity (7+ years) if properly cared for. Factors such as frequency of use, climate conditions and maintenance significantly influence durability.
