watchdiveswatchdives Watch Buckle 18mm Stainless Steel Watchband Clasp Silver Fold Safety Milled Clasp Replacement

Easily installed (with tools included) as per accurate measurement—18mm clasp width on a 20mm lug distance. Looks good and wears good on the wrist. This has a substantial feel and weight, creating a notable improvement over any stock stamped clasp.Well brushed polished for the price and though the edges aren’t “smoothed” off, they also shouldn't make contact with your skin in such a way as to be abrasive during wear.Note: despite what the darkened images show, the SILVER color option is true to a standard, lighter shade that works well with stainless steel bracelets.

Great buckle for the price. Replaced a Seiko stamped buckle. The Watchdives is much better quality.

Great clasp

Updating my review. The two scissor pieces of the folding milled clasp don’t stay together when the clasp is closed. This leads to the center part of the clasp jutting out and scraping bottom of wrist the whole time you’re wearing it

Stainless steel, easy to replace

and that was a big deal for me. After recently becoming interested in watchmaking restoration, I decided to buy the quartz Armitron ($18} in the picture because it resembled the vintage style of watch I want to work on and because I have zero watchmaking experience (also zero style), so I thought it would be a good test to see if I like it and how to gauge what size of watch case works for me. On both accounts the Armitron nailed it! The only issue is my wrists are in between link sizes and the watch did not come with a micro adjust buckle. Actually, I didn't realize this when I bought it and when I discovered the sizing issue upon receipt, I thought it might turn out to be a poor purchase, regretful. But, rather than giving up I began to search whether buckles are replaceable, and that rabbit trail led me to this item. Got it today. Removed a couple links from the bracelet to downsize and give me full use of the buckle micro adjust. Now the bracelet fits perfect!For sizing the correct buckle to purchase, please do measure the end link clasp width. Mine measured 18.96 mm, so I went with the 20mm. Maybe the 18mm would have fit, but I didn't want to risk it.The buckle is finished pretty well IMO, and I do chuckle a bit knowing it cost more than the watch. However, I plan on keeping the watch indefinitely and will pass it down to my kids someday. Yes, even cheap quartz watches can last for generations, if taken well care of, and be worthy of an heirloom gifting. But frfr, if sizing is an issue or the buckle on your watch broke (assuming you don't go with a replacement original) you got to get this!

Replaced my OEM Luminox buckle for my Pacific Diver Chrono and have been impressed with not only the fit by also the quality at this price point. The clasp mechanism is somewhat firm but I would prefer this over being too easy to engage. Also appreciate the 6 micro adjustments to accommodate the perfect fit

I put this on an Islander Brookville to replace the stamped clasp and I gotta say it really added the final touch to that watch.
