Leather Cuff Watch Band + Leather Bracelets 101 - Be Fashionable No Matter What Time You Arrive!!

Step 2Determining Size, etc...

Determining Size, etc...
Firstt order of business for both watch band and bracelets is determining the size.

1 1/2 inches seems fairly standard for watch faces, and is just about the right width for leather 'n rockstar goodness.

For length, first wear your watch and band, note where it buckles / attaches, is this a good spot for snaps? Reckon out a good design on paper.

Cut a strip of paper 10 1/2 inches long (I think you should be able to find that nearby) and 1 1/2 inches wide (or whatever width you want your band to be). Use it to determine a comfy fit for your band, mark and measure. Add 1 inch to this measurement for a perfect fit, or 1 1/2 to adjust upwards. Using your knife and ruler, cut a strip of the appropriate width and length.

Lay out your snaps, rivets, and watch hardware. Determine where you want it located.
