Handcrafted Italian Leather Straps Compatible with Rolex Watches

Milano Straps offers a refined collection of Italian leather watch straps compatible with Rolex timepieces. Many collectors choose leather to give their watch a different character from the original bracelet while preserving the integrity of the case and lugs. A well selected strap transforms the appearance of models such as Submariner, Daytona, Datejust, Explorer, GMT Master, Oyster Perpetual, Sea Dweller, and Day Date, creating a warmer and more personal presence on the wrist.

A leather strap is a classic alternative to the Oyster or Jubilee bracelet. While metal bracelets are durable and sporty, leather provides lighter wrist feel, greater comfort, and versatility for everyday wear, business attire, and formal occasions. Leather also removes constant metal contact between the bracelet end links and the inner lugs. Over long periods this helps reduce friction and preserves the sharpness of the case edges and engravings, especially on vintage references.

Our straps are designed for Rolex watches that use standard spring bars. Typical lug widths include 20 mm for Submariner and GMT Master models, 19 mm or 20 mm for many Daytona references, 20 mm for most Datejust 36 mm models with some modern 41 mm versions using 21 mm, and 19 mm or 20 mm for Oyster Perpetual models depending on generation. Explorer and most Day Date 36 mm references commonly use 20 mm straps. Because Rolex has produced numerous variations across decades, confirming lug width before ordering is recommended.

Each strap is handcrafted in Italy using full grain calfskin, Epsom leather, saffiano leather, and selected alligator hides. Traditional stitching, carefully finished edges, and soft lining materials ensure durability and long wearing comfort. Most straps include quick release spring bars so the strap can be changed easily without tools.

The collection is available in classic black, brown, cognac, navy, green, and textured finishes to complement different dials and bezels while maintaining a balanced and authentic look. Leather straps allow owners to personalize their watch without altering the original bracelet, making them especially popular among collectors of vintage and modern references.
