I bought my watch in the UK but never seen one with a velcro strap here in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Solar watch came with a "Steel" strap and I had them change it to a Leather strap. Edited September 10, 2023 by MJCM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But first look at the watch and which Strap size fits and then search for it (Edit: Forgot to add, also look at the connection to the watch of course) For example https://www.lazada.co.th/products/182022-velcro-luminox-i3430140297-s12685194155.html They have them in sizes 18-20 and 22mm Edited September 10, 2023 by MJCM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lopburi3 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 1. Do you even need a watch? Not withstanding this is Thailand time - you likely have a phone within reach with a much more accurate time display. 2. Can you replace battery yourself? Needle nose pliers could often be used instead of a dedicated wrench when I wore a watch. Batteries themselves are available in shops and online.

I have two watches and enjoy wearing them, easier to glance at your wrist than fumbling around in your pocket or shoulder bag for the mobile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
