FAQ

What is the lug width of the Tissot Quickster T095.449.17.057.01?

The lug width of the Tissot Quickster T095.449.17.057.01 is 20mm. This measurement represents the distance between the two horizontal lugs on the case and determines compatibility with aftermarket straps. Verifying this specification before purchase is essential to ensure secure and stable attachment.

Which strap material is most suitable for the Tissot Quickster?

For the Tissot Quickster, we recommend three primary options: alligator or vegetable-tanned calf leather for elegance and controlled ageing; NATO in ripstop nylon for durability and daily practicality; FKM rubber for humid or high-wear environments. Your choice depends on context: formal occasions favour structured leather, whilst sporty applications suit textiles and rubber.

How do I change the strap on my Tissot Quickster T095.449.17.057.01?

Strap replacement requires a spring bar tool to compress the elastic lugs. Position the watch on a stable surface, insert the tool into the lug groove, apply controlled pressure to release the old strap, then thread the spring bars into the new strap. Verify secure attachment before wearing. If unfamiliar with the procedure, consult an authorised service centre.

Can I use a third-party strap on my Tissot Quickster?

Yes, any strap with a 20mm lug width is compatible with the Tissot Quickster T095.449.17.057.01. Premium aftermarket artisanal straps often offer superior finishing and materials compared to factory equivalents. Confirm the width specification and validate secure spring bar attachment before extended wear.

How long does a leather strap last on a watch like the Quickster?

Leather strap longevity depends on usage patterns and maintenance. Vegetable-tanned leather, under normal conditions (worn 5–6 days weekly), typically lasts 3–5 years before replacement. Wear accelerates with frequent perspiration, intense solar exposure, and neglected care. Rotating straps periodically and applying conservation balms significantly extends service life.
