Finding the perfect strap or accessory for your watch can greatly enhance comfort and style. Our sizing guides help you measure your watch accurately, ensuring the best fit.

With these guides, you can confidently choose the perfect straps and accessories to enhance your watch.
2) Print File. In print options dialogue box, uncheck any “shrink oversized pages to fit” or “fit to page” boxes.*IMPORTANT!*
3) After printing, test the accuracy by measuring the “one inch” test strip with a standard ruler.
4) Cut off the inch ruler from the side and wrap around your wrist to determine your wrist size.
5) Hold your watch with the lugs framing the blocks below to determine your lug width. There should be no gap or overlap.
Lug Width Measurement:
To determine your lug width, print the BluShark Watch Sizing Guide in step-1 and place your watch on the measuring blocks located on the bottom of the guide.

3) Cut out the tool. Position the wider end where you would wear a watch. For a more accurate measurement, you can use a piece of tape to hold the wider end in place.
4) Wrap the tool around your wrist, keeping it in place. Make sure the tool feels snug and doesn’t slide up or down.
5) Note the inch number the arrows point to – that’s your band size.
6) If the arrows land between two measurements, choose the smaller of the two numbers closest to the line.
Adapter Measurement:
To determine which size adapter you need, use the following guide:
If your Apple Watch is 42mm, 44mm, or 45mm, you’ll need an adapter that measures 22mm.
If your Apple Watch is 38mm or 40mm, you’ll need an adapter that measures 20mm.
If you have a 41mm Apple Watch, choose the 20mm adapter.
Unsure of your case size? You can usually find it on the back of your Apple Watch, near the sensor. Or, open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, go to "My Watch" at the bottom, then tap General > About.

A. Yes! Water won’t damage the material or affect its performance, but it can soak into the strap. Some customers let their straps dry while still wearing them, while others remove their watch for faster drying.
You can return items within 30 days of purchase.
A. This strap measures 280mm (11in.) and fits wrist sizes from 6.6” to 8.5” - A 6.5" to 7.75" wrist provides ample strap to tuck within the keepers, while an 8" to 8.5" wrist allows the strap to pass under both keepers.
A. This is a pass-through strap, which means it slides under your watch and through the spring bars on each side. If your current strap has non-removable spring bars, you’ll need a new pair to use this one. Please note, this strap is not compatible with smartwatches. If you’re unsure if this strap will fit, please contact us! We’re happy to help.
A. This strap works with a wide range of watches, including dive watches, tool watches, field watches, dress watches, pilot or aviation watches, chronographs, sport watches, and GMT or travel watches. As long as your watch has spring bars and the strap width matches your watch’s lug width, it will fit. Please note, it is not compatible with smartwatches.
A. Yes. The buckle on the BluShark AlphaPremier watch strap is replaceable. It’s held in place with a spring-bar that can be removed with a spring bar tool.
A. Yes, the AlphaPremier watch strap using a 1.2mm thick high-grade ballistic nylon with reinforced stitching and heat-sealed adjustment holes and edges to resist fraying. Nylon is tear-proof and breathable.
A. Nylon straps are easy to clean. Simply use a soft brush with warm water and a small amount of dish soap, gently scrub the strap, and then let it air dry.
A. Yes! Every BluShark Strap comes with a lifetime warranty on defects.
A. Double-pass means the strap threads under the spring bars and then back over, giving extra security and a military-style look.
A. These straps are designed longer to create a tucked look. You pass the strap through both keepers, then back around and under them for a neat, secure fit.
Solid strap and looks great! Worth it! Cutting down the tail to desired length if you decide to go that route might take a little practice to get it looking clean. The next one I might just tuck it and go with that look. I’m gonna order another one soon just for color options. Switches out in seconds!
Nice band but darn expensive for the material. Would not recommend. I bought a timex weekender from amazon for 47 w a decent band but wanted ku colors and band was nearly same as watch w a band! This band should be 12.00 tops w free shipping. Just saying.
The buckle is not straight and creates an asymmetrical closure. Also, the hole that the buckle attaches through is already ripping, even though the watch is not tight. So I am disappointed with the quality.

Hey Phil,
Really sorry to hear that you received what sounds to be a strap with some manufacturing issues. If you haven't reached out to our support team already, please do respond here and we can get you a free replacement strap.
Feels like a million bucks on your wrist! Supple, luxurious and drapes perfectly. Puts every other nato strap to shame!
Fit and finish were excellent. The strap texture was smooth and soft for Nylon. I wear NATO straps almost exclusively and this is in the top 3.
I’d highly recommend these to anyone.
The strap materials feel very nice and wear comfortably. My one complaint is that after about a week of wear, the strap hole that fits me best has begun to stretch noticeably which is negatively impacting the fit of the strap. I was surprised by this because I don't believe I was wearing it overly tight.
This is a beautiful strap and now that I have it, I don’t know if I have a watch nice enough for it! (LOL) I guess I need to do something about that ;)
As usual, great quality and style from BlueShark.
Let me just say, this company is the first ever to go back thru my orders in a day, and apply their buy two get one free sale to an item I bought, even though I made multiple transactions. BluShark is awesome.
I am extremely happy with my AlphaPremier strap. This is my second strap from BluShark, and the first one has been worn daily for the past 2 to 3 years and still looks excellent.
