Heritage T118.410.36.277.01 (aka: T1184103627701)— lug 20mm

The Tissot Heritage T118.410.36.277.01 has a lug width of 20 mm. This measurement should be verified with a metal ruler inserted into the case slots, measured from the inner edge of the top lug to the inner edge of the bottom lug. Do not confuse lug width (20 mm) with case diameter (40 mm).

For the Tissot Heritage T118.410.36.277.01, we recommend a strap in vegetable-tanned alligator in cognac or dark brown tones, or satin-finished calf leather with a stainless steel deployante buckle. These materials respect the classical identity of the salmon dial and the historical aesthetic of the model, creating a coherent dialogue.

To change the strap, you must remove the spring bars that connect the strap to the lugs of the case. Use a dedicated spring bar tool to compress the pin from the inside, releasing the old strap. Then insert the new strap into the slots and ensure that the spring bars are fully seated. We recommend consulting a professional if you lack the correct tools.

Yes, any aftermarket strap with a 20 mm lug width is compatible with the Tissot Heritage T118.410.36.277.01, provided the spring bars are of standard width (1.8 mm). Always verify specifications before purchase. Artisanal straps offer construction quality and customisation not available in original straps.

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on the material and usage. A strap in alligator or vegetable-tanned calf, used daily under normal conditions, maintains structural functionality for 3-5 years. The leather develops a natural patina and progressively thins, eventually requiring replacement. Periodic maintenance with specific conditioners significantly extends useful life.
