The watch strap is available in a large number of styles that make it easy to complement the actual watch. The type of strap can vary depending on its durability, comfort, length, width and material. Here is a brief overview of the four most popular types of watch straps:
A bracelet
The bracelet strap is usually made of solid material, such as stainless steel, and a popular choice on luxury Swiss watches and diving watches. The strap is easily adjustable with each end of the strap clamped together with a secure buckle. Most of them use chains or mesh parts that are easily removed from the strap to simplify the size adjustment process. Metal belts have the potential to provide greater strength and durability compared to material belts, but they have a disadvantage that is not suitable for everyone, for example, with metal allergies. In addition, they are heavier alternatives in different materials.
Leather
Leather belts are very versatile and look great with all types of clothing from suits to casual. Most leather belts are very durable and naturally change in appearance and soften over time. There are also faux leather belts that do not like to soften over time, but are likely to fade and change color after regular exposure to sunlight.
The strongest leather belts are in one piece of material. Many of the natural leather belts include the type hidden on the underside. In addition, these belts can have a sweat-resistant pad to increase the comfort level after wearing for a long period of time.
Elastic
Silicone and rubber belts are a popular choice in the casual style of watches and are presented in different colors to match the personal preference of men and women. This type of strap is very soft and flexible to make an excellent alternative to metal or leather belts that may feel too heavy or hard. A great advantage for this type of belt is the ability to absorb moisture in hot climates, which is quite often found in alternatives in the skin.
dam
The Bund is the perfect choice for outdoor or reliable watches that require a bit of extra strength and durability. They simply consist of a regular-sized strap with an extra layer that is wider and goes beyond the watch. This extra layer is useful for providing additional wrist protection in harsh environments.
