Changes from Metal to Leather band?

[jayely1]

Just curious, is it possible to take this band off and put a leather one one and if so, how??

I don't see any screw holes on the outside of the band..On my Panerai there is screw on the outside, which makes it easy to change.

The watch has spring bars that are accessed from the back side of the bracelet. Almost every modern watch uses the same type of attachment. And yes the. Bracelet can be removed and a leather strap used in it's place.

Ohh ok, sorry for the noob question..Any videos on this??

Try reading a little! I'm sure there are YouTube videos showing how to remove/replace a metal bracelet. I just googled "how to change a metal watch band" took 10 seconds, first 4 hits are YouTube videos.

So you can put a leather strap on a watch with an end piece originally?

Here's one of mine, I switch back and forth from leather to steel as the mood fits.<br /><br />

Most watches.

 

APs Roos and similar watches in particular you cannot just swap them over, you need to buy a strap that's made for them, or I think there's an adapter that lets you put normal straps on them.
