Directions for changing / choosing your watch band or buckle

Before you purchase a new watch band, you will need to know what size watch band you need.

To find out what size what band you need, just measure your current watch band / strap at the end that meets the watch.

Most men’s watch bands range from 18mm – 22mm (larger men’s watches are also now using 24mm or 26mm) and come in metal, leather, rubber, silicone, lizard, ostrich, alligator, suede, shark, stingray, and many other materials.

Most women’ watch bands range from 14mm – 18mm (larger women’s watches are now using up to 24mm bands) and come in metal, leather, rubber, silicone, lizard, ostrich, alligator, suede, shark, stingray, and many other materials.

Most watch bands are “straight” at the end.

If your watch band is “straight” at the end (no cutouts, etc.), then you will be able to easily find watch bands on ebay by simply typing in the size watch band you need (example – “18mm watch band” if your watch uses 18mm watch bands, etc).

If your watch is not “straight” at the end, then you’ll need to search using the name/make/model of your watch to find the correct band (example – “….(brand)…..(model)….(size)…, watch band”).

If you have any questions re: what watch band you need, just email the seller of the watch band BEFORE bidding w/ any questions and most sellers are more then happy to help you purchase the right size/band.

You might also want to pick up a spring bar tool on ebay when purchasing your new watch band / strap.

These inexpensive tools will help you easily switch out your band.

Once you have your band and are ready to switch out your band, simply follow these easy directions:

–

All you have to do is get a spring bar tool (or a very small flat head screwdriver or a knife – be careful, please) and push the pins in that hold the band/buckle onto the watch. Just insert spring bar tool/screwdriver/knife between side of band and case/buckle and push in and down.

The band should “pop off” the watch and then just switch out the pins into the new band/buckle (and then place the band/buckle on your watch) and you’ll be able to change your band/buckle easily and quickly.

–

These directions will work for 95% of all watches.

If you have a watch that uses screws or screw pins to hold your watch band on (usually more expensive watches), you will need a small screwdriver and will “unscrew” the pin instead of “popping” it off.

If you do have a watch w/ screw pins, I would suggest that you check w/ a jewler before switching out your band (just to be safe).

Good luck!

22mm MODENA F-1 style Italian Rubber Watch Band w/ Deployant / Deployment Buckle / Clasp

Two tools in one that can do half the work of one tool

This tool is pretty small, which is good if you need a compact tool. I think this tool made the the job of pushing the pins back into my watch band harder than it needed to be. You have to be careful how you hold it when using the pin pusher. In using the pin pusher end of the tool, I had the urge to put my finger over butt end for better stability, or to palm the butt end so I could apply more force, but the butt end of this tool is a skin-piercing fork. All I could do was grip the handle with the tips of my fingers.

I could not get a good enough grip on the tool to apply enough pressure to push the pins in all the way.

I didn’t want to use a hammer to tap the pins in because that would ruin the tines on the fork.

I ended up flatting the tip of a tiny finishing nail and using a toy hammer to tap the pins in the last sixteenth of an inch. It didn’t take much pressure to drive the pins in, but I simply could not muster the force and control needed to drive the pins home using this tool.

For a pin pusher, I think a better tool would have a larger handle. You should be able to place the butt end of he handle into the palm of your hand so you can apply some pressure. This tools doesn’t let you do that. I don’t know what this tool is good for, really.

Good quality

Cannot ask for better, cost-effective tool for repairing watches. Do keep in mind you need to have the right technique to remove / insert the bridge.

I used this tool for repairing my wife’s two Gucci watches. Took only 30 second to use it right, and another minute to fix each watch. It’s that easy.

Superb bargain.
