Installing Two-Piece Watch Strap

1. Secure the spring bars to the watch lug. Make sure both ends are snapped securely into their respective holes.
2. The shorter band with the buckle goes on the top of the watch (12 o’clock). Insert one end of the spring bar into the hole on the watch lug.
3. Use the spring bar tool to compress the other end of the spring bar, and slide it into place. Make sure both ends are snapped securely.
4. Repeat the process on the longer band which attaches to the bottom of the lug (6 o’clock).

A Clean Look
Installing a single pass watch strap is easy. With the right adjustments, you can achieve a sleek look similar to when you put on a 2 piece strap. This trick will help your watch sit flat on your wrist without keepers protruding at the sides.
1. Position the keeper of the strap about 3cm above the watch lug (12 o’clock position).
2. Upon securing the strap, the buckle will be closer to the lug below (6 o’clock position) instead of being at the center of your inner wrist.
3. The bulky parts of the buckle and keepers will be hidden underneath. Only one layer of strap will be visible from the top.

Two Ways to Loop
The length of a single pass watch strap can be adjusted according to your wrist size. There are two ways to fix the strap for adjustments.
The Firm Loop
Requires a little more effort and practice, but the strap’s hold will be firmer and last longer. Refer to the video to set it up correctly.
The Quick Adjustment Loop
Easier and faster to adjust, but the hold may loosen after some time.
Refer to the video for the steps.

This is how the firm and quick adjustment loops will look.
Determining which loop to use depends on your wrist size, watch weight, lug size, and lug-and-strap combination. It is to be noted that the Herringbone Twill, X-Hatch and Reversible Silk Watch Straps do not need a firm loop to stay in position.
