Multifort M038.431.36.057.00— lug 22mm

The lug width of the Mido Multifort M038.431.36.057.00 is 22mm. This measurement is taken between the inner edges of the spring bar lugs on the case. All straps designed for 22mm lug width will fit perfectly on this model.

For the Multifort, we recommend a vegetable-tanned leather strap—the Tuscany cognac brown is the ideal choice. This pairing emphasises the rationalist aesthetics of the case and develops a natural patina over time. Alternative options of equal quality include alligator for formal contexts or box calf for versatile daily wear.

Extract the lateral spring bars from the case using a spring bar tool or fine needle. Insert the tip under the bar from inside the lug, apply gentle upward pressure and the bar will release. Repeat for the second bar. Position the new bars in the new strap and reinsert into the case, ensuring they are fully seated.

Yes, any strap with a 22mm lug width is compatible, provided it is designed for watches of similar quality. Milano Straps' artisanal straps are crafted specifically for this market segment and guarantee constructive tolerances, material quality and finishing consistent with the Multifort's prestige.

A quality vegetable-tanned leather strap lasts between 3 and 5 years with daily wear, depending on exposure to water, perspiration and friction. Tuscan leather develops a natural patina that increases character but shortens lifespan. A more robust box calf reaches 5-7 years. Rubber or NATO fabric straps last indefinitely if properly maintained.
