The watch displays hours, minutes, and small seconds with refined German aesthetic, while the integrated lug system creates a harmonious interface between case and wrist.

FAQ

What is the lug width of the Moritz Grossmann Atum MG-0001063?

The lug width of the Moritz Grossmann Atum MG-0001063 is 20mm. This is the spacing between the two case lugs. To verify strap compatibility, measure the internal distance between the lugs at the narrowest point of the lug shoulder: it must be exactly 20mm. Accurate measurement prevents costly purchasing errors.

What is the best strap for the Moritz Grossmann Atum MG-0001063?

The best strap depends on intended use and aesthetic preference. For maximum formality, we recommend alligator in vegetable tanning tone-on-tone with the rose gold, or dark brown calf leather. For daily versatility, black shell cordovan offers superior durability and extraordinary patina development. Navy blue NATO straps provide a modern sports alternative without compromising elegance. FKM rubber is ideal if you wear the watch in humid environments or during physical activity.

How do I change the strap on my Moritz Grossmann Atum?

Strap changes require a spring bar remover, a small tool with a lever that lifts the strap retention spring. Position the lever in the hole on the lug shoulder, push slightly downward to release the spring, then extract the old strap. Insert the new strap the same way, ensuring the spring clicks correctly into the lugs. If you do not own the tool, Casati Milano offers strap change service by appointment at their bespoke atelier.

Can I use aftermarket compatible straps with my MG-0001063?

Yes, aftermarket straps are fully compatible with the Moritz Grossmann Atum MG-0001063, provided the lug width is exactly 20mm. Milano Straps offers a curated selection of artisanal straps in vegetable-tanned leather, alligator, shell cordovan and NATO specifically sized for this measurement. Using aftermarket straps does not affect the watch warranty, provided the change is executed carefully without damage to the lugs.

How long does a leather strap last on my watch?

A quality leather strap, such as those offered by Milano Straps, has an average lifespan of 3-5 years with daily wear, varying by material. Alligator and shell cordovan in vegetable tanning offer superior longevity, up to 7-10 years, due to fibre density. Vegetable-tanned calf leather requires periodic maintenance (cleaning and conditioning every 12-18 months) to maintain elasticity. Wear is natural and accelerated by sweat exposure, salt water and direct sunlight: protecting the strap during night-time removal significantly extends useful life.
