    Hey, I’m curious. With the holes for watch band & length. How do you know how long you need for wrists? Like if your watchband maybe fits 7 inch wrists. You extend it to make 8.5 inch wrist. This would be by just adding 2 inches to the length? & adding more holes?

  • @NovgorodskyLeatherCraft

    @NovgorodskyLeatherCraft

    3 жыл бұрын

    The video starts by showing you how to calculate the strap length. No extra holes need to be made. If you count everything correctly, then only three holes are enough. I do five, simply because it looks nicer that way. If your wrist is 8.5 inches (216 mm), subtract the length of the watch (~ 44mm) from this value and divide it in half. This will be the length of the 12 o'clock side strap (86mm). The length of 6 o'clock side strap will be 86 + 45 = 131mm Punch the central hole at a distance of 86 mm from the watch and two more hole at a distance of 7-8 mm from it, one above, the other below.

    I don't always use different ones. It depends on what kind of leather is used for the face. For example, the shown in this video can also be used on the bottom of the strap. But still, for the bottom it is better to use leather that has good protection from moisture (sweat).
