Hello there,

I'm on the hunt for these small folding metal clips/ tabs used in old open end watch straps. They're made from soft metal and can be bent with a fingernail.

If anyone knows where to find them, please let me know.

Kind regards,

SteveOz

@Wepster Thanks for all of those links Mate. But, they're not the same thing.

Just search a bit deeper & they sell/make exactly what you are looking for. I think the ones you posted are flat, versus the raised ones like wepster posted. Plus they are made in many different sizes/dimensions.

@toxo Thanks Mate. I might laser cut some. I was just hoping to find an 'off the shelf' answer.

The ones you have shown @SteveOz are the same items as those suggested by others here. The manufacturer might be different. . You could check  different sellers until you get the exact shape and size that you need. You know what it is called, so that will help. Most leather stores have them in some form.
