FAQ
What is the lug width of the Zenith Defy 16.9201.670/10.MI001?
The lug width is 22mm. To verify it accurately, measure the distance between the lugs at the base of the case with a calliper. This specific width allows you to source compatible straps online with millimetre precision.
What is the best strap for the Zenith Defy 16.9201.670/10.MI001?
The best strap depends on usage context. For refined elegance, shell cordovan with natural patina dialogues with aged stainless steel. For daily sportive wear, vegetable-tanned calf in midnight blue offers both comfort and rigour. For absolute refinement, black alligator with integrated deployante.
How do I change the strap on my Zenith Defy 16.9201.670/10.MI001?
Locate the spring bars (tension pins) at the ends of the lugs. Using a dedicated strap removal tool or a fine implement, push the spring bar inward to release the old strap. Insert the new strap by aligning the holes with the lugs and allow the spring bar to rest in its seat.
Can I use an aftermarket-compatible strap on my Zenith Defy?
Yes, provided it respects the 22mm lug width specification. Artisanal leather straps in vegetable-tanned leather, alligator or shell cordovan are fully compatible and offer superior personalisation compared to factory straps.
How long does a natural leather strap last on a Zenith Defy?
A genuine vegetable-tanned leather strap, with proper care and regular wear, lasts 4–7 years. Shell cordovan extends to 10 years thanks to material density. Replacement frequency depends on exposure to humidity, perspiration and natural leather degradation.
