FAQ

What is the lug width of the Pequignet Royale Titane 9022733/30?

The lug width of the Pequignet Royale Titane 9022733/30 is precisely 20mm. This dimension is critical for ensuring compatibility with any aftermarket strap and represents the manufacturing standard established by Pequignet for this specific model. Measurement must be taken between the two spring bars connecting the strap to the case, with no tolerance for error.

Which strap is best suited to the Pequignet Royale Titane 9022733/30?

The most recommended strap for the 9022733/30 is alligator in cognac brown or black, as it enhances the natural luminosity of the titanium case and creates a refined aesthetic dialogue. An excellent alternative is shell cordovan, which develops a rich patina and unique grain characteristics over time. For sporting contexts, an organic cotton NATO or rubber strap offers practical solutions without stylistic compromise.

How do you change the strap on a Pequignet Royale Titane 9022733/30?

Changing the strap on the 9022733/30 requires a spring bar tool, a specialised instrument that allows compression of the spring-loaded bars positioned at the ends of the lugs. Gently insert the tool beneath the bar, apply upward pressure to release the previous strap, then seat the new 20mm strap in the same slots. A straightforward operation, but requiring care to avoid damaging the titanium lug.

Is a 20mm aftermarket strap compatible with the Pequignet Royale Titane 9022733/30?

Yes, any strap with a 20mm lug width is fully compatible with the Pequignet Royale Titane 9022733/30. It is essential to verify that the strap lugs have an external width consistent with the watch to avoid unsightly play. At Milano Straps, you can consult the dedicated collection of 20mm straps and customise your selection according to colour and material preferences.

What is the lifespan of a leather strap on a Pequignet Royale Titane 9022733/30?

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the tanning technique, material quality and wearing conditions. Vegetable-tanned alligator, properly maintained, offers a longevity of 3-5 years with daily wear; shell cordovan can reach 7-10 years thanks to the natural robustness of equine fibre. Prolonged exposure to moisture, perspiration and direct sunlight reduces these timeframes. Rotating between multiple straps significantly extends the lifespan of each.
