I LOVE YOUR STRAPS! I CANNOT DECIDE THE ONE(S) I SHOULD GET

In the end the choice of a strap comes down to personal taste. We love to pair straps with side stitching to vintage tool watches or chronographs, while we prefer straps with classical stitching on dress watches. As for colors, we like contrasts as they better pop out on the wrist. This means for example natural color on watches with black dials, or any color on watches with white dials. An important element is also the pairing with the color of some of your apparel or accessories, such as shoes, belt, bag or tie. With our quick release system, color matching between strap and clothing becomes as easy as changing a pair of shoes. If you are still unsure, feel free to drop us a line at info@nerobiglia.com.

 

I LOVE YOUR STRAPS! I AM NOT SURE WHETHER THEY WILL FIT MY WRIST AND WATCH

All our straps come in two lengths:

  • Regular: 115mm/75mm
  • Small: 105mm/65mm

The regular size will fit wrists with a circumference between roughly 16.5cm (6.5 inches) and 19.5cm (7.7 inches)

The small size will fit wrists with a circumference between roughly 14.5cm (5.7 inches) and 17.5cm (6.9 inches)

All our straps will fit watches which have a distance between the lugs of 18, 19 and 20mm.

Should your wrist or your watch fall outside of these characteristics, we can produce a custom made strap for you. Please get in touch at info@nerobiglia.com and we will make it happen.

 

WHAT IS THE QUICK RELEASE SYSTEM THAT YOU OFFER ON YOUR STRAPS?

The quick release mechanism (or quick release spring bars) is a system that allows for the quick removal or installation of a strap to your watch. A small oval hole is performed on the strap with a special tool and a spring bar with the quick release mechanism is inserted in the strap. By sliding with your fingernails the oval head to the right, installing and removing a strap becomes an operation that can be done by anyone in a matter of seconds. This system is as safe as using classical spring bars. Many high end watchmakers, including Patek Philippe, sell their watches with this feature. If your strap is not equipped with the quick release mechanism, you will need a special tool to change your strap, and it is very easy, even for experienced persons, to ruin the strap in the process and/or even worse, to scratch the case of your watch.
