Hi all,

I'm looking to buy this watch http://www.torobravos.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=76_116_246&product_id=670

And I have a question about the strap.

Is this just one fit? I have a small wrist but not that small. All watches with the normal 'holes' fit me fine and the strap on the above watch I can't really work out if it can be adjusted for smaller wrists.

Thanks

Sorry I don't know much about watched so my terms are a bit off

Yes this strap fits all. It's no holes in this strap because it can be adjusted to any size with a flip lock in the buckle press the rubber in place on the size you choose..

I have two of this watch and they are amazing and easy to mod. :)

You can always buy the stainless steel bracelet for it at the same time.

You will need a cheap tool to adjust that though.

Just received this and I'm unsure as to how the strap works.

Whenever I try and adjust it you cannot close the clasp since part of the strap stops it from closing.

Something's not right here?

Should I cut the extra bit?

Yes - cut the tail so that the clasp sits under your wrist where it should, then cut the long side so that you only have a reasonable amount hanging into the keepers.

You must have like a 5" wrist based on those pics. In the first pic, are you wearing the watch just above your knee?

Still, it looks like the buckle may be incorrectly installed as well - the curved metal piece should be under your wrist and mimic the curve of your wrist, not curve opposite.
