Sizing notes

  • 23 mm is the gap between the lugs, so a 23 mm band goes in without adapters. Whether it sits flush against a 38.7 mm case depends on how that case is shaped.
  • 23 mm is an odd size: most ready-made bands are made in even widths, so this reference needs one cut to measure or a band that runs in odd sizes. Why some watches take odd sizes →
  • Inside the DB28 family the lug width is not one number: it runs 23, 26 mm. This reference is the 23 mm one, so a band bought for another DB28 may not fit it. Why the size changes inside a family →
  • 23 mm is not a common size: only 655 of the 41,485 watches measured take it (1.6%), so ready-made choice at this width is narrower than at 20 or 22 mm. Every watch that takes 23 mm →
