The strap plays a key role in both the aesthetics and comfort of your watch. Whether you're looking to refresh its look or simply adapt your watch to different occasions, it's essential to choose a strap that perfectly fits both your model and your wrist.
1. Check Compatibility with Your Watch

💡 Good to know: A perfectly fitted strap ensures optimal support and extends the lifespan of your watch.
2. Choose the Ideal Size for Your Wrist
A well-fitted strap should feel comfortable—neither too tight nor too loose. Here's how to measure your wrist accurately:
-
Use a tailor’s measuring tape or a simple piece of string, then measure it against a ruler.
-
Measure your wrist without squeezing too tightly.
-
Round up to the next half centimeter for the ideal fit.
-
Example: a wrist measuring 16.6 cm becomes 17 cm.
Recommended strap sizes:
-
Small (S) → wrists under 16 cm
-
Medium (M) → wrists between 16 and 18 cm
-
Large (L) → wrists over 18 cm
Choosing the right buckle:
-
Pin buckle: traditional and elegant, well-suited for leather straps.
-
Deployant clasp: more secure and comfortable, it extends the strap’s lifespan and adds a refined touch.

4. Caring for Your Strap
A high-quality strap requires proper care to preserve its shine and suppleness:
✅ Avoid prolonged contact with water.
✅ Clean with a soft cloth to remove dust and sweat.
✅ Condition the leather with a specific balm.
✅ Alternate between straps to reduce wear.
Choosing a strap should never be left to chance: compatibility with your watch, the right fit for your wrist, and the selection of premium leather. Maison Tellus guides you in this pursuit of excellence with straps worthy of your timepiece, blending artisanal craftsmanship and responsible values.
