Anyone with sweaty wrist?

[Docbutt109]

yes, and a supply of hydrocortisone cream gets me through summer.

I definitely prefer steel bracelets in summer and avoid rubber and leather like the plague - but I'm quite fortunate that all of my current rotation have some form of OTF adjustment, either Glidelock, ratcheting or Easylink.
Another good option is mesh as this allows a certain amount of breathability and can usually be adjusted fairly easily if it gets too tight - either with a tang buckle or some form of deployant.
I tried MN style elastic straps and found that while they allow for a lot of wrist swelling before they need adjusting, they made my wrist sweat pretty much the same as leather or rubber - so back to bracelets.
Apparently Perlon straps are the best all rounder for summer, but I'm still yet to try one!

I feel like a nato strap may work well for me as I sweat no matter what and I can just toss it in the fall

I’ve tried them and I just can’t gel with them, I like all the colours and patterns, I just don’t like how they wear as my wrist size means spare material that needs to be looped under all the keepers and it just ends up looking like a lop-sided mess

Might I suggest obesity?

This is super useful

I just found this on AliExpress: 15,89€ | 316L Steel Silver 16mm Connector Spare Links End Parts For Watch Band

https://a.aliexpress.com/_EJ6Wc6O

It works on most 16mm clasps, and you get an EasyLink style function

Embrace a loose nato strap. Breathes so well on my wrist and if it's a really hot and sweaty day, it's pretty easy to wash up!

You'd also be really surprised at how many watches can pull off a nato strap.

A loose NATO strap is a sign of a disorderly mind

I turned a blind eye when you said in another thread that you didn't like Tudor but you've gone too far this time.....

NATO straps are fine, unfit for me but fine.
But loose NATO, come on.

It’s like the gym fit-hottie who suddenly wears loose yoga pants.

I feel like I gotta wear all my watches a little loose in the summer! I just wasn't cut for a sweaty wrist.
