Help with the Sizes of Watch Straps/Bands
|
In order to find the correct strap or band for your watch you will need to know various lengths and sizes. In order to save you time and effort, we've provided some pictures and instructions to help you. (1. and 2. are very important, with 3. and 4. only required in certain situations.) See below: |
| 1. Lug Width |
Most of the straps available in our shop are sorted by lug width. In order to ascertain the lug width you need for your watch, please measure the distance between the lugs on your watch (the horn like parts protruding from the top and bottom of your watch). |
| 2. Length of Strap/Band |
In order for your watch band to sit correctly, you need to buy one that's the right length for you. To do that, please measure the length of the last watch band that fitted you. |
| 3. Width of Buckle |
If you would like to use the buckle from a previous strap or band, maybe the one that came with your watch, you will need to pay attention to the buckle size in our product descriptions. This will need to coincide with the inside width of the buckle you have. |
| 4. Thickness of Strap/Band |
The thickness of a strap is normally only important from an aesthetic point of view. Thin, or flatter watches go best with thinner straps, whereas large robust watches need a thicker padded strap in order for the design to best be complemented. |
