FAQs On Our Replacement Watch Straps
How do I know what straps to fit to my watch?
Measure the lug width of your watch, which determines the replacement watch strap size you need to buy. Consider the style of your watch and your personal preferences, such as material and colour, and quick release options.
Which type of watch strap is most comfortable?
The comfort of your replacement watch band varies by material and wearer. For example, NATO straps, silicone, and leather are popular for their flexibility and softness. Factors like breathability and the weight of the watch strap you buy will also contribute to comfort.
Find out more on this topic in our blog where we review and analyse which watch strap type is the most comfortable.
Do all watch straps fit all watches?
No, replacement watch straps vary in size, attachment style, and design, so they must match the lug width and compatibility requirements of your watch. Some watches have unique designs that require proprietary straps.
Is changing a watch strap easy?
Yes, in most cases, changing a watch strap is usually straightforward, particularly with quick-release straps or standard spring bars. However, some specialty straps may require extra care or tools.
Do I need a tool to change my watch strap?
For quick-release straps, you don’t need a tool, but for spring bar straps, a spring bar tool makes the process easier and safer. In some cases, a small flathead screwdriver may work, but it risks damaging the watch so take your time.
