FAQ

What is the lug width of the Tissot Tradition T063.610.11.037.01?

The lug width of the Tissot Tradition T063.610.11.037.01 is 20 millimetres. This measurement represents the internal distance between the two attachment points on the watch case. It is critical when selecting compatible straps: a 20mm strap will seat perfectly, ensuring secure fit without tolerance play. Straps of different widths (18, 19, 21mm) would result in instability or case scratching.

Which strap pairs best with the Tissot Tradition T063.610.11.037.01?

Selection depends on intended use and aesthetic preference. For formal elegance, we recommend vegetable-tanned leather (alligator or calf) in tobacco, dark brown, or black tones. For daily versatility, a navy or grey NATO introduces tonal lightness. For light sports or warm climates, vulcanised rubber offers direct tactile grip. The Tradition's austere design harmonises well with all these materials: coherence between case tone (stainless steel) and strap colour is paramount.

How do I change the strap on my Tissot Tradition T063.610.11.037.01?

The procedure is straightforward: you will require a spring bar tool. Position the watch on a stable surface, locate the small lateral holes beneath the lugs, insert the tool to compress the internal spring mechanism, and the lug will release freely. Replace both lugs, ensuring they click into position with an audible snap. For curved lugs (as in many artisanal straps), the process remains identical. If unfamiliar with the procedure, Casati Milano offers strap replacement by appointment.

Are aftermarket straps compatible with the Tissot Tradition T063.610.11.037.01?

Yes, fully compatible provided the lug width is 20 millimetres. Artisanal straps available through Milano Straps are manufactured in Italy to specifications exceeding the integrated Tissot bracelet: leather quality, finishing, and stitching are superior. Always verify that the strap specifications indicate '20mm'. Once mounted, an aftermarket strap transforms the tactile and visual identity of the watch, enabling tonal shifts between formal and casual with minimal investment.

What is the expected lifespan of a leather strap for the Tissot Tradition?

A high-quality leather strap (vegetable-tanned, 1.4–1.6mm thickness) typically lasts 18–36 months with daily wear, accounting for exposure to moisture, perspiration, and sunlight. Longevity depends on: frequency of wear, climate conditions (humidity accelerates degradation), and maintenance (drying after water contact). A vegetable-tanned strap develops attractive aging patina over time, enhancing aesthetic appeal. Rubber or NATO straps offer greater moisture resistance and typically last 3–5 years. Milano Straps offers compatible replacement straps: their accessible pricing enables seasonal rotation and extends the aesthetic range of your Tradition.
