  Types of Longines watch straps

  There are many types of Longines straps, such as the crocodile leather straps, genuine leather straps, and steel bracelets listed above. Usually, the price of the strap accounts for one-third of the entire watch price, so the price of the strap depends on the price of the watch. The higher the price of the watch, the higher the price of the strap.

  Do Longines watch straps fade?

  The strap is an important component of a watch, with metal bracelets being the most common, and stainless steel bracelets being the most numerous by material, alongside precious metals, tungsten steel, and titanium. Due to long-term wear, the strap bears the brunt of the wear and tear, and the most common problem is the fading of the gold plating layer.

  Generally speaking, Longines watch straps will not fade easily, but after long-term use, they will experience a certain degree of fading. This requires paying attention to usual maintenance.

  Causes of Longines watch strap fading

  The vast majority of Longines strap fading is caused by dust and sweat. This also depends on individual circumstances, such as the working environment, the nature of the work, whether the individual sweats easily, and the style of the watch strap worn.

  Both metal and leather straps have industry standards. Among them, leather straps have specific quality requirements against colour fading and bleeding, whereas metal straps belong to the category of surface electroplating, which only has regulations for the bond strength of the electroplated coating. Leather straps are more prone to fading and staining when damp and soaked in water, but the inner side of leather straps is usually lighter in colour.

  The accumulation of dust is also a cause of strap fading. The grime mixed with sweat and dust at the joint gaps acts like putty, filling the gaps in the strap and even emitting a foul odour. People with carefree habits might not pay much attention to this, but watch repairers feel this most profoundly; when a watch is cleaned and oiled, that is actually where the most sludge is.
