FAQ

What is the lug width of the Tissot Carson T122.223.11.033.00?

The lug width of the Tissot Carson T122.223.11.033.00 is 16 millimetres. This dimension is specific to this model and requires straps compatible with this precise width. It is measured easily by removing the original strap and checking the internal space between the two lugs of the case.

Which strap is most suitable for the Tissot Carson T122.223.11.033.00?

For the Tissot Carson T122.223.11.033.00, we recommend straps in black or dark brown alligator for formal aesthetics, or vegetable-tanned calf leather in cognac or tobacco tones for a warmer appearance. For daily use, NATO straps in dark colours maintain the model's elegance. The choice depends on occasion and personal aesthetic preference.

How do I change the strap on my Tissot Carson T122.223.11.033.00?

To change the strap, you need a spring bar tool to extract the elastic pins that hold the strap to the lugs. Gently insert the tool between the lug and strap, compress the internal pin and slide the strap outward. Repeat for both sides. The operation takes minutes and requires care to avoid scratches.

Can I use aftermarket straps on the Tissot Carson T122.223.11.033.00?

Yes, you can use aftermarket straps provided they respect the 16-millimetre lug width. Milanostraps.it offers handcrafted leather, NATO and rubber straps compatible with this dimension, made with attention to constructive details and finishes. Ensure the strap is specifically declared for the 16mm size.

How long does a leather strap last on the Tissot Carson T122.223.11.033.00?

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on tanning, material and daily use. An alligator or shell cordovan strap with vegetable tanning, worn regularly, lasts an average of 5-8 years before requiring replacement. Natural leather develops characteristic patina over time, however with intensive use (sweat, frequent humidity) durability may reduce to 3-4 years.
