Metal watchbands- Strapcode

 Stainless steel watch bands are widely liked among wristwatch lovers for several reasons. First, they go well with a range of outfit styles and can be a nice touch on classy, business, and casual occasions. Second, they are long-lasting and low maintenance because they are well-resistant to corrosion and staining. Last, but not least, they are suitable for people prone to common allergies.

(A8) The end link spring bar holds the watch strap attached to the watch case.

(A9) The end piece screw is the screw that holds the End link (A7) attached to its closest link (or so-called second link), but not all stainless steel watch bands have a detachable end link.

(A13) Materials used for stainless steel watch bands are usually stainless steel grades 304, 316, and 904. Due to its characteristics, grade 304 is on the cheaper end, as it is more sensitive than the two latter. Grade 316L is also known as surgical steel and has a great quality-price ratio. Grade 904 is the most durable, hence the most expensive among these three, and quite hard to process and shape. Besides stainless steel, other materials commonly used for metal watch bands are titanium, 14K or 18K gold, and sterling silver.
