Your watch took years to choose. The strap shouldn't be an afterthought.

Watch compatibility
Compatibility depends on your watch's lug geometry and measurements. Standard spring-bar watches are often suitable; integrated or shaped lugs may require a custom adapter.
If you are unsure, email official@yostrap.com with your watch brand, model or reference number, and clear photos. We will confirm the required measurements before production.

Frequently asked questions
How do I know which lug width to order?
Measure the gap between your watch lugs with a ruler or digital caliper. Most watches have it printed on the caseback (e.g. "20mm"). If you're unsure, message us your watch model and we'll confirm.
What happens after I order?
We'll contact you within 24 hours to confirm your watch model, lug width, wrist size, and any customisation details. Production begins only after everything is verified.
Is it real crocodile leather?
Yes — genuine crocodile leather, not embossed calfskin or synthetic crocodile pattern. The natural scale surface is preserved, which is why the texture is irregular and three-dimensional.
Can I return a custom strap?
Custom-made items are non-refundable. However, if the strap doesn't fit due to an error on our side, we remake it at no cost. We verify all measurements before cutting to prevent this.
How long will it last?
A well-cared-for genuine crocodile leather strap can last for years of regular wear. Condition every 2–3 months with a suitable leather conditioner and keep away from prolonged water exposure.
