Watch Strap Size Chart and Measuring Instructions
Step 1: Measure Lug Width
- Using a ruler or caliper, measure the width of the space between the lugs of your watch where the strap will attach. This measurement will determine the lug width.
Step 2: Measure Wrist Size
- Wrap a flexible measuring tape or string snugly around your wrist, just below the wrist bone.
- Note the measurement in inches or centimeters.
Step 3: Determine Strap Length
- Measure the distance between the lug ends of your watch to determine the ideal strap length. This measurement should correspond to your wrist size and desired fit.
- For a comfortable fit, add 1,5 to 2 inches (3.5 to 5 centimeters) to your wrist size measurement.
Step 4: Consult the Size Chart
| Wrist size (inch/cm) | Watch strap length (2 pieces) | Watch strap length (one-piece) |
|
5.5 - 6.5 inch / 14 - 16.5 cm |
S: 110-70 mm | 230 cm |
|
6 - 7 inch / 16.5 - 18.5 cm |
M: 120-80 mm | 250 cm |

Tapered sizes:
Tapered size refers to a gradual reduction in watch strap width from one end to the other. In the context of watch straps, a tapered design typically features a wider width near the lug attachment point of the watch and gradually narrows towards the buckle or clasp end. This tapered shape not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the strap but also offers a comfortable fit, ensuring it conforms smoothly to the wrist. Tapered straps are often favored for their stylish look and ergonomic design, providing a sleek and refined appearance when paired with various timepieces.
Please Note:
The wrist size mentioned refers to the circumference of your wrist at the location where you typically wear your watch.
The length guide provided is approximate and applies to the straps depicted in the images. Variations in fit may arise due to variances in wrist shapes, buckle or clasp types, and differences in watch case sizes or shapes, which cannot be entirely accounted for.
Additionally, individual differences in hand size and structure may further influence fit.

Sample Sale – Handmade Shark Leather Watch Strap
Handcrafted in Finland
This watch strap is offered as part of our Sample Sale collection. It was used only once for product photography and has never been worn on the wrist. The strap remains in excellent, like-new condition.
Each strap is handcrafted in Finland using genuine shark leather and the same construction standards as the straps from our regular FinWatchStraps collection. Shark leather is valued for its dense structure, durability, and naturally textured grain. Every piece has its own unique surface pattern, making each strap visually distinct.
All shark leather used for this strap is legally sourced, supplied with the necessary European certificates, and complies with EU regulations regarding exotic and specialty leathers.
The structured appearance of shark leather pairs especially well with vintage divers, field watches, chronographs, and modern tool watches. The material is durable, resistant to daily wear, and designed for long-term use while remaining comfortable on the wrist.
Every Sample Sale strap is made as a one-of-a-kind piece in a specific size and configuration. These straps are sold exactly as shown in the photos — as is, without additional customizations or modifications. Only one piece is available.
