A watch that truly belongs to you should fit no one else. Our Cut-to-Size (CTS) strap is designed for a permanent, tailored connection to your wrist.
Before you begin:
You will need a soft surface (a valet tray or cloth), a pair of sharp household scissors, and the spring bar tool provided in your kit.
1. The Measurement
Install the straps without the clasp onto your watch using the quick-release pins.
Place your watch face down on a soft surface, and rest the top of your wrist against the case, palm facing up.
Gently pull the strap ends up and over your wrist, allowing them to overlap. There’s no need to tug; the goal is a natural fit that keeps the watch case perfectly centralised on your wrist. Since the deployment clasp holds the rubber ends in close proximity, aim to cut just enough so the clasp sits snugly and centred, without feeling restrictive.
Note: Your wrist isn't symmetrical. You may find yourself cutting more segments on one side than the other to keep the watch face centred. This is normal.
2. The First Cut
“Measure twice, cut once.” Locate the recessed grooves on the underside of the strap. These are your cutting guides. Always leave one extra segment more than you think you need for your first attempt. It is easy to take more away; it is impossible to add it back.
3. The Alignment
Insert the non-quick-release spring bars into the last hole of your newly cut strap. Attach them to the deployment clasp. Snap the leaf-spring shut and check the feel.
4. The Refinement
If the fit is loose, remove the strap from the clasp and trim one single segment at a time. Repeat until the watch sits securely, snug enough to stay in place, but with enough breath to let the skin move.
