Fits wrists ranging from approx. 6-8 inches in circumference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Solid Link Construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Solid Link Rivet bracelet is constructed with links made of solid stainless steel (resulting in a heavier bracelet than the stretch version). Links are removable by screws, and further length adjustment can be made on the clasp. Fits wrists ranging from approx. 6-8 inches in circumference. Includes one elastic (stretch) link behind the clasp to ensure the bracelet can be worn comfortably throughout the day. End piece widths available from 18mm, 19mm, 20mm, 21mm, and 22mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Stretch Link Construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Forstner 5-Link Rivet Band is a universal fit bracelet, meaning that it has a straight end link that will fit most watches having lug widths of 16mm, 17mm, 18mm, 19mm, and 20mm.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIncluded\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpring bars and screwdriver for size adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"STRAPIFY","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":44202310402122,"sku":null,"price":235.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":44202310434890,"sku":null,"price":235.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Rose Gold","offer_id":44202310467658,"sku":null,"price":235.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold","offer_id":44202310500426,"sku":null,"price":235.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1794\/4993\/files\/bundle-kit_4fae70e7-58ef-4f25-94b7-f006eff15461.jpg?v=1792626094","url":"https:\/\/www.strapify.com.au\/products\/pixel-watch-1-5-41mm-the-forstner-5-link-rivet-bracelet","provider":"STRAPIFY","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
