Helpful instructions on how to find the lug width of your watch, take a look.
The ‘lug width’ is simply the internal width measured between the lugs (where the watch strap fits) of the watch.
If you’re looking to buy a replacement watch strap for your watch, it’s important you know this information first so you can ensure the watch strap fits your watch.
Find a high-quality replacement watch strap to fit your watch perfectly here!
It’s always best to check this size before you purchase a replacement watch strap, you can then view the correct sizes available for your watch on our website.
Inaccurate readings by just a few millimetres could lead to your strap having a loose fitting or either not fitting at all. It is best to use a pair of calipers (vernier) or a ruler (a tape measure is not advised) and please note it is the internal dimension you need.

Unfortunately we don't have any 28mm mesh straps.
But please can you get in touch (quoting your watch model number) via the contact page and we'll try and help you.... https://www.watchgecko.com/contacts/
I measured the inner lugs and it’s precisely 20mm. Should I look at 19mm or 20mm straps?
Thanks.
Thanks.
i'm interested by your strap, especially in suede or nubuck leather ; but there are in 120/80 mm length and I need 115/75 mm length. Is it possible ?
Best regards and excuse me for my bad english.
Should I have purchased a 22mm?
The 20mm has slight movement but I think if I took the 22mm it might not fit.
Great Strap
I'm looking for a replacement strap in black leather for my Calibre 8 GMT, I'm not sure of the size required but the strap looks the same as the CARRERA CLASSIC CROC.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Thanks for your comment.
The best thing to do is to email us with more info on your watch including the model number and we can look into this further for you.
The Omega Speedmaster Professional has a 20mm lug width.

my Oris has a lug width of 21 mm. Would I be able to squeeze in a 22 mm shark mesh strap?
Regards,
Tim
It looks like you will need to go for a 21mm strap.
However if you find once the strap arrives you need to return it that's not a problem, just drop us an email and we'd be happy to help!
It looks like you will need a 20mm strap, here's a link to our range:

We're working on expanding our odd sizes range in the future.
However, for now, you may find some success with squeezing a 24mm strap in the 23mm lug width.
Here's our 24mm range:

I've recently purchased a Samsung galaxy 46mm with 22mm strap is the butterfly solid 3 link oval compatible and would I require rounded end links kit ?
Kind regards,
Mike
I believe our solid 3 link would fit with the straight links, however feel free to contact our customer support for further advice.

Many thanks for your question.
Unfortunately we don't offer a strap in these sizes, however, you may find a bespoke strap maker will help.
Tim
What could you offer with a 145/90 length.

Unfortunately, we don't offer a rubber strap in that size and we do not offer a custom strap option.
