About 20mm Watch Bands

Whether your lifestyle requires an active, rugged CNS Watch Straps 20mm or a more refined leather model, you can find the right band for your wrist with our selection of quality 20mm watch bands. The key to choosing the perfect strap is sizing. To ensure your new watch strap fits correctly, you must first measure the internal width of the lugs (pincer-like attachments that secure the strap to the case). You can do this with a ruler or digital calliper. You can also consult the label on your existing strap, which will usually show the lug width.

Once you have the lug width, you can determine which size band will fit your watch. A general rule of thumb is that the strap should be 1/2″ to 1″ longer than your wrist size, but this can vary depending on the wearer’s wrist shape, strap thickness and personal wearing preference.

The style of the strap will determine its appropriateness for different occasions and outfits, too. For example, dress watches are often paired with a tapered strap to achieve balance and proportion, while a straight strap works well for sports-oriented models because of its durability. If you want a more versatile watch strap, nylon is your best option. It is durable, comfortable and water resistant. It also comes in a variety of colors to match any occasion. You can even get a reversible nylon strap that will give you the best of both worlds.
