Band width for 38mm

[njc707]

Does anyone know what the band width size is for the 38mm SS Classic? I know the length, but I need the width at where the band meets the face of the watch. The 38mm fits my wrist, but it is on the very last hole. I saw a youtube video showing how to put any band you want on, but it was for a 42mm SS Classic and the band width was 22mm. Is it the same width for the 38mm SS with a starting band of the Classic?

Thanks!

The included band is roughly 20mm wide at the lug. 22 would probably fit, but it would be a little snug.

Roughly is ok, but can anyone actually measure? Please

It doesn't give dimensions for bands, but rather for the pieces the bands connect to, so you can see what will fit and what won't.

Thanks for the info and the link.

I did measure it. It's slightly more than 20mm. But since standard aftermarket band widths step from 20mm to 22mm, the next size up would be too big.

Buy a 20mm band.

Can't help anybody these days.

Awesome, thanks for measuring it.
