flyingcuda Report post Posted August 30, 2010 hello, someone wants me to make a 2 1/2 inch watchband. silly me..i have never made one and quoted 15 dollars. when i actually started...i realised i haven't got a clue as to how to make this work and look good. seems awefully large to me..but just my opinion i guess. it has a battery so i need to leave access to the back...i am in a remote area that is severly lacking in learning materials. if anyone can help, i would truly be very greatful!

Timd Report post Posted August 31, 2010 Sorry, I was rushed yesterday, I was thinking just the single strap in the center, and woven through the 2 1/2" piece.No tooling, no grommets, just leather. That style was every where in the '70's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
landm42006 Report post Posted September 3, 2010 (edited) Or try making a bund strap. BUt the effort you have already made is worth more than $15. A strap like this quoted at around $75 +, I believe. Edited September 3, 2010 by landm42006 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
