How do I know what lug size to get?
For most watches, you can actually Google your watch reference lug size and you should be able to find it online.
For example “What is the Breitling Navitimer lug width”
It can help to also mention the reference number of your watch to make sure the info is
accurate.
If no info available you can use a ruler to measure the distance between the lugs.
Lastly, if the watch has a leather strap already, you can take a look at the back of the strap because in some cases you can see the size written in the back.
You can of course reach out to us, as we might be able to help you find the lug size.
How do I know my wrist size or the strap length I need
You can measure your wrist by wrapping a measuring tape or around your wrist.
You can also measure (if you have ) another strap that you know fits you well and measure
the length of each strap (excluding the buckle)
