MAURICE LACROIX Leather Watch Strap 20 mm Swiss Made Brown

Overview

MAURICE LACROIX is a Swiss watchmaker founded in 1975 in the Jura region, known for in-house movements and high-end finishing. This strap is an original OEM accessory designed for MAURICE LACROIX watches with 20 mm lug widths, compatible with ardillon (tang) buckles. The strap is crafted from full-grain calf leather, a material favored for its durability and ability to develop a patina over time. The dark brown color aligns with classic Swiss watch design conventions, offering versatility for both dress and casual timepieces.

The strap is sized 20 mm at the lugs, tapering to 18 mm at the buckle end, a common proportion for balanced wrist presence. The short piece measures 80 mm and the long piece 115 mm, accommodating wrist circumferences up to approximately 200 mm (7.9 in). No buckle is included, as the strap is designed for use with existing ardillon buckles from MAURICE LACROIX or compatible third-party options. The item is graded Excellent in our Condition Grading Scale below, with no signs of excessive wear or damage.

Specifications

Original MAURICE LACROIX OEM leather strap for ardillon (tang) buckles. Lug width at the case end is 20 mm, tapering to 18 mm at the buckle end. The strap is crafted from full-grain calf leather in dark brown, a standard material for Swiss-made watch straps due to its balance of suppleness and strength. The leather is finished with a smooth grain, free of embossing or artificial textures.

Dimensions: short piece measures 80 mm from the lug end to the buckle, long piece measures 115 mm. Total length, when joined, is approximately 195 mm, suitable for wrist sizes up to 200 mm (7.9 in). The strap thickness at the lugs is standard for dress watches, typically 3.0 to 3.5 mm, though exact measurements may vary slightly due to leather compression over time.

Markings on the reverse side read: MAURICE LACROIX OF SWITZERLAND | CUIR VÉRITABLE | 20. CUIR VÉRITABLE confirms the use of genuine leather, while 20 denotes the lug width in millimeters. The strap is designed for compatibility with MAURICE LACROIX cases that accept 20 mm straps, including models from the Pontos, Eliros, and Les Classiques collections.

The strap features pre-formed keeper loops for the tail end, with the first loop positioned approximately 60 mm from the buckle end on the long piece. Stitching is executed in a matching brown thread, using a saddle stitch for durability. The underside of the strap is left unfinished, a common practice with full-grain leather to preserve its natural properties.
