FAQ
What is the lug width of the Montblanc Tradition 112636?
The lug width of the Montblanc Tradition 112636 is 18mm. This measurement is taken from the distance between the two spring bars (metal pins) that attach the strap to the case. It is a standard dimension for this model and ensures balanced proportions with the 36mm case.
What is the best strap for the Montblanc Tradition 112636?
The best strap depends on intended use. For formal contexts, we recommend black or dark brown alligator with polished finish. For daily elegance, vegetable-tanned calf leather. For versatility, a heavyweight canvas NATO. For light sports wear, vulcanised rubber with fine grain. Compatibility is assured by the 18mm lug width.
How do I change the strap on my Montblanc Tradition 112636?
To change the strap, remove the spring bars using a spring bar tool from the side ends of the case. Align the new strap holes with the pins and reinsert the spring bars into position. If you are not experienced, we recommend having the operation performed by a professional watchmaker to avoid damage.
Is an aftermarket compatible strap reliable for the Montblanc Tradition 112636?
Yes, aftermarket straps from specialised manufacturers are reliable if made with artisanal precision and certified materials. Compatibility is guaranteed by the 18mm lug width. Choose straps from recognised suppliers that offer warranty on construction quality and durability over time.
How long does a leather strap last on the Montblanc Tradition 112636?
A high-quality leather strap (alligator, calf, shell cordovan) typically lasts 3-5 years with daily use, longer if rotated. Durability depends on the tannage (vegetable-tanned ages better and develops patina), frequency of use, and maintenance. Vegetable-tanned leather tends to improve over time, developing character and natural patina.
