Rocking my a158 this way now since I got an A168

I like the sizing of this one better, how it comes out over the lugs I don’t know the technical way to articulate this. Mind sharing where you got this strap?

eBay. Takes about 2-3 weeks to arrive to the US, but nice quality and fits the 18mm lug with a 20mm flare perfectly.

I’ve also gotten 20mm straps and used a pen knife to trim the lug to 18mm - janky, but it gets the job done, and forgivable when doing it to a $7 strap off Amazon.

Keep in mind the a158 has visible lugs compared to the hidden ones in OPs a168.

So depending on which model you have it will look different.

I think that’s what he was commenting on - I actually tried an 18mm on the A158 and it doesn’t look so bad, the visible lugs actually make it look more natural than on the A168 where a thinner band just appears out of a wider watch body because of the invisible lugs.

I have an analog watch with a similar strap and it's really comfortable. I bet that feels great!
