What is the watch strap adapter?
Watch strap adapter also called lug connector, bridge, or curved end. It has a metal adapter or plastic adapter.
Watch band with adapter:
- No gap in between the watch case and strap. Perfectly match
- Easy to break from the adapter
- More expensive and difficult to compatible with. If you want a perfect watchband to fit your watch, you can try to see if the same adapter is available from Drwatchstrap. If not available, then you can consider the flat-end watch band. Please be aware that NOT all flat-end watch bands would fit all models.
Watchband without adapter:
- There is a gap in between the watch case and strap.
- More reliable and durable
- More reasonable and definitely fit
