The 24 mm watch strap is the size of big, characterful men's watches, and you can choose from plenty of good-value pieces too. You can pick from colourful Rochet Birdy straps (red, white, orange, grey, khaki), Rochet Neptune and Indiana, Hirsch Kansas M, and silver, gold and rose gold coloured metal straps.
Which watch needs a 24 mm strap?
Mainly men's watches above 44 mm with thick cases: big chronographs, military and pilot-style models, and some oversized pieces from fashion brands. A wide strap keeps a large case balanced on the wrist; with a narrower one the watch looks "top-heavy".
Birdy, Neptune or metal: which should you choose?
The Rochet Birdy straps are all about colour: khaki and grey for field watches, red and orange are good as a summer change strap. The black Rochet Neptune is for sportier use near water, while the brown Indiana suits watches with a vintage feel. Among the metal straps, silver-coloured goes with a steel case, and gold and rose gold coloured with a similar case colour.
- Colourful change: Rochet Birdy (in five colours)
- Sport and water: Rochet Neptune black, black plastic
- Vintage look: Rochet Indiana brown, Hirsch Kansas M
- Metal: silver, gold and rose gold coloured
On a wide strap the buckle matters too
24 mm straps carry a larger buckle, so check on the product page what buckle it comes with and whether the strap length suits your wrist. If you need a narrower one after all, you can see the others on the watch straps by size page.
Our own watch service will also shorten metal straps and change straps if you would rather not do it at home.
