Wrist & Lugs Sizing Guide

Size matters! ;)

Getting sizing right matters. Once you know your wrist size and lug size, you can use our filters on our collection pages and search for a watch band that fits you well.

To measure your wrist size:

  1. Print our wrist measurement guide. Cut the ruler, wrap it snug, but not tight, around your wrist. Mark the length, lay it flat, and measure with a ruler.
  2. Use a tailor's ruler, made out of cloth or fabric. Wrap it snug, but not tight, around your wrist. Mark the length.
  3. Use a string. Wrap it snug, but not tight, around your wrist. Mark the length, then lay it flat and measure with a ruler.

To measure your lug size:

  1. Look on the back of your existing strap. Many watch bands and rubber straps will have the lug size imprinted on the back of one or both of the straps. This is the fastest method and helps to ensure an exact fit.
  2. Print our measurement guide. Put your watch over the millimeter ruler to determine your watch's lug size.
  3. Use one of our watch band tools with a printed ruler and use that ruler to determine the lug size.
  4. Use a metric ruler or calipers, to measure the space between the lugs. An imperial ruler can also be used if you convert inches to millimeters.
  5. Find your watch specifications online. Google " lug width" (eg, "Citizen Promaster Fugo lug width"). Most manufacturers list the lug-to-lug size on their website product pages (look under specifications or details). Common sizes will be 18mm, 20mm, and 22mm.
  6. Run it by a watchmaker or jeweler. They will be able to tell you the size between your lugs.

Tips & Tricks

  • Find the taper size to match your custom buckle: If you want to reuse an OEM buckle from an existing watch band, our specifications accordion tab contains taper size, if it exists. Some watches do not have a taper. The taper end is where the buckle joins the strap.
  • Lug widths with two numbers: Sometimes a watch band will list two sizes, such as 20mm-18mm or 20mm/18mm. The first number is the lug width: you need this to fit the strap to the watch. The second number is the taper width at the buckle, which is used to match our band to an existing buckle.

On Location

When we travel to a special point-of-interest (POI) or find objects of interest to featured in our hero photos, a story unfolds. If the story exists, you'll find it here.

The Air Force Armament Museum

The photos featuring a P-51 Mustang and USAF McDonnell F-101 Voodoo Supersonic Jet, with the Airfield™ leather watch strap in the foreground, were taken at the Air Force Armament Museum adjacent to Eglin Air Force Base in Valparaiso, Florida.

Over 29 different aircraft are on display at the Air Force Armament Museum, including an AC-130, B-17, B-25, B-52, P-51, A-10, F-15, F-16, F-100, F-101, and many other aircraft from the WWII era to the present.

The North American P-51 Mustang was a legendary American long-range fighter aircraft of World War II, celebrated for its speed, agility, and striking design. Introduced in 1942, it played a decisive role in gaining air superiority, particularly as an escort for Allied bombers deep into enemy territory.

Powered by the 12 cylinder Packard-built Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, the P-51 combined high-altitude performance with impressive range, enabling it to escort bombers all the way to Berlin and back. Its sleek lines, bubble canopy, and formidable armament made it both a pilot’s favorite and a feared adversary—earning its place as one of the most iconic fighters in aviation history.

The P-51 Mustang boasted:

  • 1000 mile range
  • Top speed of 505 MPH
  • 41,600 ft ceiling
  • Four .50 Caliber M2 Machine guns
  • Six 5" HVAR rockets or 1,000 lbs of ordinance

The F-101 Voodoo Supersonic Jet was a supersonic jet fighter designed during the Cold War, originally conceived as a long-range bomber escort for the U.S. Strategic Air Command. First flown in 1954, the Voodoo evolved into multiple roles, including tactical reconnaissance and air defense interceptor.

Powered by twin Pratt & Whitney J57 turbojet engines, it could exceed Mach 1.5, making it one of the fastest jets of its era. Its sleek, needle-nosed profile and swept wings gave it a distinctive, aggressive look, while its high-speed capabilities made it a formidable presence in both U.S. Air Force and Royal Canadian Air Force service.

Though its career was relatively short, the F-101 remains an iconic symbol of early supersonic aviation and Cold War air power.

The F-101 boasts:

  • 16,900 lbf thrust with each afterburner
  • Top Speed of 1,134 mph (Mach 1.72)
  • 1,520 mile range
  • 55,800 ft ceiling
  • Four 20mm M39 revolver cannons or two 20mm (F-101B)
  • AIM-4 Falcon, AIR-2 Genie nuclear rocket air-to-air missiles
  • Up to 6,000 lb (2,722 kg) of ordnance
  • Advanced photo-recon systems
