Hi Guys,

Just got a new strap for my 321 and just like the OEM strap I have a small confort issue. Seems like one strap hole is to tight and the nex strap hole is to loose for my confort,.

Any idea???

Four ideas.

You can punch your own holes in a custom ordered strap. (i do now)
You can put it up for sale and keep trying til you get one just right.
You can keep it as your wrist will naturally change size with temperature, pressure, etc. (ie my wrist is larger in the summer than winter, just wear the right strap on the right day)
You can try different buckles on it. Some buckles are larger than others, so a big buckle might make that hole that is too tight, just right.

Keep buying straps until you find one that fits. You will have many nice looks for your watch.

I looked for strapsmiths who customise the straps, and once I found those who make good straps that fit me, I stay with them and they become my go-to guys :)

Sorry forgot to add... Some strap makers/ online sites produce straps that have the holes very close together. That may be a good thing.

Strap-works is one such strap maker I think.
