Choosing the right watch strap is a breeze when you have the correct measurements. Here's a simple guide to help you find the perfect fit:
- Grab a ruler: All you need is a basic ruler to measure the distance between the lugs of your watch head.
- Keep the existing strap: In most cases, you won't need to remove your current strap. You should have enough visibility to measure accurately.
- Flat surface setup: Place your watch on a flat surface, preferably something soft to prevent scratches on the watch back.
- Measure the distance: Align the 0 mark on your ruler with the inside of the left lug, and measure the internal distance to the right lug.
- Record your measurement: Note down the measurement you obtained. If your ruler is in centimeters, convert it to millimeters.
For example:
- 1 centimeter = 10 millimeters
- 1 cm = 10 mm
- 1.5 centimeters = 15 millimeters
- 1.5 cm = 15 mm
- 2 centimeters = 20 millimeters
- 2 cm = 20 mm
By following these simple steps, you'll have the precise measurement needed to find the ideal watch strap.

Needed a basic brown leather strap for an old analogue Timex. Great quality and it’s completely revived the watch. Good as new!

The Calf Value range is an excellent product and well priced for the quality provided. The only way they could be improved is by fitting quick release spring bars. This is something watch enthusiasts are increasingly looking for these days, as it makes swapping out straps so much easier and quicker.
