Can every watch strap be replaced?

You can often tell for yourself whether a watch strap is easy to replace. If your watch has a straight connection between the case and strap, often with leather straps, a high-quality, unbranded watch strap is usually suitable. This is flexible, affordable, and perfectly suitable for everyday use.

When the watch strap follows the shape of the case , often with metal straps, it's called an integrated connection. In that case, a standard strap is often not an option, and the strap must be ordered specifically for that watch model. As a certified jeweler, we can also order original brand straps , so your watch retains its original appearance.

Have your watch strap replaced by a watchmaker

Replacing a watch strap requires precision. Incorrect installation can damage the case or clasp. At Juwelier Van de Heyning, every strap replacement is carried out immediately in our own workshop by certified watchmakers, including any necessary shortening of the chosen metal watch strap . This ensures a perfect fit, secure attachment, and a high-quality finish.  

How much does it cost to replace a watch strap?

The price for replacing a watch strap is primarily determined by the type of strap itself . The material, the brand of the watch, and whether it's a standard strap or an original brand strap made to order play the biggest role. At Juwelier Van de Heyning , watch strap installation is included in the price of the strap ; you don't pay any additional labor or hidden costs. In other words, the price of replacing a watch strap is usually the same as the price of the selected strap. For watches with an integrated clasp or specific brand models, it may be necessary to order an original strap, which affects the price and delivery time. Of course, we always discuss this with you in the store and provide you with honest advice on the best solution for your watch. Only if berets also need to be replaced will there be an additional charge on top of the price of the strap.
