True integrated vs look-alike
True integratedCase and bracelet designed together. End links or first links are unique to that model. Standard straps usually will not fit.
Integrated lookBracelet appears seamless but still uses conventional spring bars. Aftermarket straps and bracelets are often possible.
StandardClassic lugs with normal spring-bar holes. Wide aftermarket choice.
The practical test: if a regular 20 mm (or correct width) leather strap will not sit properly between the lugs, it is likely a true integrated design.
Common examples
- Royal Oak, Nautilus, Overseas – classic true integrated
- Tissot PRX – integrated H-link, limited aftermarket
- Many modern “Genta-inspired” sports watches – check carefully
- Most Rolex, Omega, Seiko with regular lugs – standard compatibility
Even within the same family, different generations can change the attachment system. Always verify with the exact reference when possible.
