One of the principal features of a watch is definitely the strap. But its importance isn’t just for superficial reasons. A strap can really make or break the experience of wearing a wristwatch. It may be that you love the features and dial of a timepiece, but it doesn’t feel comfortable to wear. Or, you feel that your watch is great for casual wear, but it doesn’t feel formal enough for special occasions. Watches with an interchangeable strap feature offer the perfect sustainable and cheap solution to both of these problems. Easily tailorable to any occasion, style, or taste, watches with an interchangeable strap feature give you that extra versatility. Below, we will recommend our current top 5 favourite interchangeable strap watches.
Our Top 5 Interchangeable Strap Watch Recommendations
HAMILTON
The Watch: Hamilton Men’s Khaki Field DayDate Automatic Black Material Black Dial H70695735
The first piece on our list is the Hamilton Khaki Field. Featured in the film The Virtuoso (2021), this military style watch has it all. It’s powered by Hamilton’s H-30 calibre, which is an automatic Swiss movement, and provides an 80 hour power reserve. The dial is a versatile matte black colour with both a day and date aperture, positioned at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock respectively. Crafted from black PVD stainless steel with a sapphire crystal, this model is also incredibly high quality.
Strap suggestion: Hamilton Straps Brown Cow Leather 20mm Khaki Field Strap Only H690705118
Of course, another benefit of the Hamilton Khaki Field model is that it has an interchangeable strap feature. Originally finished with a black canvas strap which is perfect for casual wear, why not pair it with this brown cow leather strap for more formal occasions? This is incredibly quick and easy to do, and Hamilton even have a video tutorial here if you get stuck.

Strap suggestion: Garmin QuickFit 20 Watch Strap Only, Lakeside Blue Silicone 010-12870-00
Both of the above models are compatible with Garmin’s QuickFit 20 series. We particularly love this muted blue colour. This colour in particular gives your timepiece a splash of subtle vibrancy without easily clashing with others. No tools are required to make the switch between straps, meaning you can just click and go.

This is a great idea if you want a timepiece that is personal to you or the loved one you are buying it for. To change straps you don’t even need a tool.
