What makes the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31 (ref. 130.025) special is not just one thing — it is the combination. There's something meditative about winding a manual-wind A. Lange & Sohne — the ritual connects you to the watchmaking tradition. Its solid silver dial with outsize date at 12, small seconds at 6, and power reserve indicator, powered by the first mechanical wristwatch with a 31-day running time. And at 22mm lug width, it is a watch that rewards experimentation with straps.
At 45.9mm across and 15.9mm thick, the Lange 31 wears like a watch that was designed to be lived with — not just admired behind glass. The right strap pairing amplifies what this watch already does well.

1. Best Overall — Black Epsom Slim Strap
Every watch needs a go-to strap, and for the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31, this is it.
The Black Epsom Slim Strap features Epsom leather, tanned by Haas. The fine, uniform grain gives it a clean, contemporary look that resists scratches and moisture with ease. This is leather that looks as sharp six months from now as it does on day one. At 2.2mm thick, it balances presence and wearability nicely.
Paired with the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31's distinctive dial, this strap elevates the overall look without competing for attention. The 15.9mm case thickness means a padded strap like this one feels proportional and substantial.
2. Best Dressy — Matte Himalayan Alligator Signature Strap
The A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31 cleans up remarkably well — and this strap is the reason.
The Matte Himalayan Alligator Signature Strap is crafted from genuine alligator leather — not embossed calfskin, the real thing. Each scale pattern is unique, and the matte finish gives it a refined presence that catches light without being flashy. The leather is supple from the start with minimal break-in needed. At 4.5–2.2mm thick, it balances presence and wearability nicely.
What makes this pairing work on the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31 is the contrast — the refined case finishing against the texture creates visual interest without conflict. With a 45.9mm case, the proportions stay balanced.
Once you see it on the wrist, it just clicks.
3. Best Everyday — Grigio Pueblo Slim Strap
For daily wear, comfort and versatility matter more than anything else.
The Grigio Pueblo Slim Strap features Buttero leather from the Walpier tannery in Italy. This vegetable-tanned leather develops one of the most beautiful patinas in watchmaking — scratches blend into the surface and the colour deepens over time. If you enjoy watching your strap age gracefully, this is the one. At 2.2mm thick, it balances presence and wearability nicely.
Paired with the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31's distinctive dial, this strap elevates the overall look without competing for attention. The 15.9mm case thickness means a padded strap like this one feels proportional and substantial.
4. Best Minimalist — Black Shell Cordovan Slim Strap
Minimalism isn't about doing less. It's about doing exactly what's needed.
The Black Shell Cordovan Slim Strap is crafted from premium materials with careful attention to detail and construction quality. At 2.2mm thick, it balances presence and wearability nicely.
Paired with the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31's distinctive dial, this strap elevates the overall look without competing for attention. The 15.9mm case thickness means a padded strap like this one feels proportional and substantial.
It's the kind of pairing that makes you wonder why you didn't try it sooner.
5. Best Casual — Fauve Baranil Signature Strap
Casual doesn't mean careless — this strap adds character without trying too hard.
The Fauve Baranil Signature Strap is crafted from premium materials with careful attention to detail and construction quality. At 4.5–2.2mm thick, it balances presence and wearability nicely.
Paired with the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31's distinctive dial, this strap elevates the overall look without competing for attention. The 15.9mm case thickness means a padded strap like this one feels proportional and substantial.
6. Best Sporty — Black CTS Rubber Strap
Function first, style a close second. This water-resistant pick balances both.
The Black CTS Rubber Strap is made from FKM rubber — a high-performance elastomer that resists chemicals, heat, and ageing. Unlike silicone, it does not attract dust or lint. Cut-to-size construction means you trim it to your exact wrist measurement — no leftover tail, no keepers. At 4.0–3.3mm thick, it balances presence and wearability nicely.
The A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31's 45.9mm case is ideally proportioned for this strap. The dress watch aesthetic is enhanced by the refined strap construction. It is the kind of pairing where both the watch and strap look better together than apart.
It's the kind of pairing that makes you wonder why you didn't try it sooner.
7. The Wildcard — Natural Babele Slim Strap
Every rotation needs a curveball. This is mine.
The Natural Babele Slim Strap features Buttero leather from the Walpier tannery in Italy. This vegetable-tanned leather develops one of the most beautiful patinas in watchmaking — scratches blend into the surface and the colour deepens over time. If you enjoy watching your strap age gracefully, this is the one. At 2.2mm thick, it balances presence and wearability nicely.
What makes this pairing work on the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31 is the contrast — the refined case finishing against the texture creates visual interest without conflict. With a 45.9mm case, the proportions stay balanced.
A combination that's greater than the sum of its parts.
A Note on Buckle Colour
Quick but important: always match your buckle to your case. The A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31's Platinum case calls for a silver (brushed or polished) buckle. All Delugs leather straps ship with a pin buckle and can be upgraded to a Spring Deployant Clasp for extra security and convenience. All Delugs straps come with quick-release spring bars pre-installed, so swapping straps takes seconds.
How to Change the Strap on Your A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31
Swapping straps on the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31 is one of the easiest upgrades you can make — and with Delugs straps, you don't even need a tool.
All Delugs straps come with quick-release spring bars already pre-installed, so changing straps is completely tool-free. Here's how:
- Prepare your workspace. Lay the watch face-down on a soft cloth or microfiber pad to protect the caseback from scratches.
- Release the spring bar. Locate the small lever on the quick-release spring bar. Pull it back with your fingernail or fingertip to compress the bar.
- Remove the strap. While holding the lever, angle the strap out from between the lugs. Repeat for the other side.
- Insert the new strap. Slide one end of the spring bar into the lug hole. Pull the lever on the quick-release spring bar knob, guide the entire spring bar into the opposite lug hole, and then release the knob. You should hear a small click when the spring bar extends and seats into the lug hole.
- Check the fit. Give the strap a gentle tug to make sure both spring bars are securely locked in. If there's any play, reseat the spring bar.
The entire process takes under a minute once you get the hang of it — no spring bar tool required. The A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31 uses a standard 22mm lug width, and all Delugs straps in 22mm will fit perfectly.
