Dimensions of a custom bespoke strap

Terminology of the strap

Lug Width - The internal width of your watch case lugs.

Buckle Width - The internal width of the buckle.

  • Important: If measuring your old strap, measure the internal width of the buckle, not the width of the long end! The long end might have compressed/expanded over time and thus give an inaccurate reading.

Long End - The length of the long end of the strap, from lug holes to tip.

Short End - The length of the short end of the strap, excluding the buckle.
