They double the number of hole positions available and allow you to adjust your strap size in between the standard holes without taking off your watch.

- Can be adjusted on the wrist
- 3mm of micro-adjustment that lands between standard hole spacing
- 316L stainless steel
- Includes installed spring bar + 1 spare
A note about buckle size:
For non-tapered (straight) watch straps, select the Fitwell buckle size that corresponds with your strap width. For tapered straps, we recommend measuring your existing buckle width inside the buckle, or the strap itself where the buckle attaches, and choosing the Fitwell buckle size that matches. Typically tapered straps measure 2mm - 4mm narrower at the buckle than at the lugs. For example, if your 20mm strap (at the lugs) tapers to 16mm at the buckle, a 16mm Fitwell buckle would be the correct size.
Customer Reviews
It's a great solution to a common problem, and at a great price. So far loving it!
I love these buckles! I ordered a couple recently to try out when I came across your company and they definitely solve a problem. I have a bunch of pretty nice leather straps (a couple custom too) and a few rubber ones that I ordered for specific watches but I never wear them because they are either a little too loose or a little too tight. Tested a few out over the last week or so with your buckles and it works great on just about all of them. Just ordered six more and will almost certainly be ordering more.
The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the fact that the description says there's 3 micro adjustments when in reality there is only 2. I emailed the company and asked about this, but received no response. It would also be nice to know approximate ship dates on the "pre-order" buckles. 1 month? 3 months? Besides the above comments I am very happy with this product as I always seem to be in between sizes with leather and tropic straps.
Very well made buckles with an attractive finish and unique function. Will be back for more!
When the buckle is in the “short” setting it is quite firm, locking in nicely with a click. However it is my suggestion that it be designed with same firmness in the “long” setting. It is currently a larger diameter slot that puts it there, but there seems the possibility to narrow it at the end so the spring bar snaps in, just as it does on the other side. That would prevent the bar from feeling loose in the setting. Just my observation. The buckle does what is intended so a good purchase for me.
