TomG Report post Posted May 9, 2015 When making a 1 piece strap with the flat loops for the pins, how do you all account for the curve around the wrist. If.I have the watch (seldom) it's not a problem. But when making from a measurement it's a sort of guess. I've been adding 5mm but not sure if there is a formula or something that will beore accurate. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eemo Report post Posted May 18, 2015 curve arount the wrist? Watch straps usually come in pretty standard sizes, use those! I usually just do something like 12cm for the long strap and 7cm for the buckle strap when finished. maybe 2cm extra to fold the ends for the watch pins. unless you train with weights and your wrists are huge.

TomG Report post Posted May 18, 2015 Hi Eemo, I was referring to the problem of if you put the watch pin in on one end and then put the strap on, buckling it onto your wrist, the curve of your wrist will cause the other pin holder to move away from the watch. This is for 1-piece watch bands. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomG Report post Posted May 18, 2015 Haha. I usually just add about 5mm to the spacing for the 45mm wide watches. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
