A Distinctive Look with Clean Lines
The Force watch strap stands for robustness, structure, and a confident look. The metal strap gives your watch a powerful presence and emphasizes a sporty, high-quality character. Ideal for those who consciously wear their watch and value a solid, durable strap.
Thanks to its well-thought-out design, the strap can be easily changed and individually adjusted by yourself – without the need for a watchmaker. Functionality, stability, and design seamlessly intertwine here.
Metal Strap for Everyday Life and Demands
The Force metal strap impresses with its durable design and pleasant feel. The clean links ensure a calm appearance and a secure fit on the wrist. Whether in everyday life, at work, or during leisure time – this strap is a reliable companion.
The sturdy clasp ensures hold and comfort, even during longer wearing periods. At the same time, the strap remains visually balanced and harmoniously adapts to various watch designs.
Change it Yourself – Simple and Flexible
The Force watch strap is consistently designed for self-replacement. Thanks to the quick-release spring bars, the strap can be mounted or removed directly and without tools from the watch. For adjustments and shortening the strap length, the appropriate tool is also included.
This allows you to adjust the look of your watch at any time – quickly, cleanly, and independently of workshop appointments.
Shorten a Metal Strap – How to Make it Fit Perfectly
To ensure the metal strap fits optimally, it can be individually shortened. Shortening is done by removing individual links. The appropriate strap shortening tool is included – ideal for carefully pushing out the pins and precisely adjusting the strap.
Preparation
- Work on a soft surface (e.g., a microfiber cloth) to prevent scratching the strap and watch.
- Lay out the parts clearly: strap, tool, and a small container for pins/links.
- Open the clasp and (if possible) remove the strap from the watch – this makes working easier and safer.
Step-by-Step Guide to Shortening
-
Roughly determine the fit:
Loosely place the strap around your wrist and estimate how many links need to be removed. If possible, remove an equal number of links from the left and right of the clasp so that the watch sits centrally later. -
Check the direction of the pins:
Turn the strap over and look for small arrows on the inside. These arrows indicate the direction in which the pin should be pushed out. -
Fix the strap in the tool:
Place the strap in the strap shortening tool so that the pin is directly in front of the pushing-out pin. Make sure the strap lies flat and is not jammed. -
Carefully push out the pin:
Slowly turn the screw of the tool until the pin engages the strap pin and pushes it out in the direction of the arrow. Once the pin protrudes a little, you can carefully pull it out completely and set it aside safely. -
Remove a link:
Separate the desired link. Repeat the process until the desired shortening is achieved. It's better to remove one less link initially and gradually work your way to the perfect length. -
Reconnect the strap:
Put the strap parts back together and reinsert the pin against the direction of the arrow. Press it in by hand and then secure it with the tool or light pressure until it sits flush. -
Check the fit & fine-tune:
Put on the strap, close the clasp, and check the fit. The watch should sit centrally and the strap should feel comfortable – not too tight, not too loose.

Important Notes (for a perfect result)
- Never push against the direction of the arrow: This can damage pins or jam links.
- Keep pins and removed links: This way, you can extend the strap again later if needed.
- Shorten evenly: If you only remove links from one side, the watch might sit crooked on your wrist.
- If it gets stuck: Realign the strap, loosen the tool, and reposition it cleanly – without force.
Tip: If you're torn between two lengths, choose the slightly longer option and work your way forward step-by-step. This ensures a clean, professional result.
