Follow these steps to get the perfect fit from one of our metal bracelets:
1. Unscrew the first bar
Gently unscrew the first bar at the side of the bracelet and remove it.
2. Unscrew the next bar
Unscrew the bar at the side of the next link and remove it.
3. Remove chain links
You can now remove the chain link between where the screw bars where. Remove further pins and remove more chain links, to find the size that fits you best.
4. Re-assamble
Once you’re happy with the fit, screw the bars back into the bracelet.
5. Fine adjustments
You can make fine adjustments by moving the pin bar where the bracelet attaches to the clasp. To do this release the pin bar from the current hole and slide to the next one.
That’s it a perfect, comfortable fit that’s easy to live with, day in, day out.

Follow these steps to get the perfect fit:
Allow yourself plenty of time, and try your watch and strap on your wrist before you start cutting to work out how much to shorten the strap by.
1. Unlock the strap end
Remove one strap end from the buckle using the pointed tool (included) to push into the holes in the sides of the buckle to release the spring bar. Be careful not to lose the spring bar.
2. Cut just 1 section
With a sharp knife or scissors, carefully cut just one section from the free end, cutting neatly and carefully along the centre of the first guide groove on the inner surface of the strap at the end nearest the buckle. Don't be tempted to cut two sections at once.
3. Refit the strap
Now refit the strap end back into the buckle depressing the spring bar to locate into the hole position nearest the centre join of the buckle. Use your fingernail or a spring bar tool if you have one.
4. Test for size
Now try the strap on your wrist again - it’s surprising how much removing just one rubber section changes the size.
5. Repeat as required
If the strap still needs to be smaller, repeat the above steps, alternating which side you cut down until the strap is the perfect length. Each time, re-attach the strap using the holes nearest the centre of the buckle so you can always increase the size a little just in case.
6. Fine adjustment
The attachment holes in the buckle are half the length of the strap sections so if you end up a tad too tight or a tad too loose, adjust which set of holes the strap attaches to in the buckle until it’s perfect.
It pays to be patient so you don't end up cutting your strap too short. Remember as your body temperature increases, your wrist size will increase too.
That’s it a perfect, comfortable fit that’s easy to live with, day in, day out.

If you have an older model of Canford, Bloxworth Chrionograph, or Broadstone, those with slotted end screw bars, please let us know, as we may need to drill slightly wider holes in a new strap so that it fits more easily.
