Strap Question

Does anyone know what size strap (width) I would need to fit a PAM 48 (40mm size)? I'm looking at a Kaktus 'Drifter' and they come in 22mm, 24mm, or 26mm- not sure what size??

Also, I know length is dependent on your wrist size, but is there some sort of rule of thumb to follow when ordering??

Thanks for your help!!!

All 40mm Pams use 22mm straps, 44mm Pams use 24mm straps.

6.5" wrist 120/70
7.0" wrist 125/75
7.5" wrist 130/80
8.0" wrist 135/85


These are measurements in millimeters the first number is the long portion of the strap, the second number the shorter portion of the strap. Most good straps makers place the hole depending on the exact measurement of your wrist for a perfect fit.

...Shall I assume that I measure my wrist at the point where the bone sticks out?

Just tie a string around your wrist as tight or as loose as you would wear your watch then measure the string.
