Your Guide to Casio Watch Band Replacement

Okay, so here's the deal. If you have a Casio watch, you probably don't have the time to stress about watch band replacements (see what we did there?) All this to say that there's nothing wrong with adding a little of variety to your favorite Casio watch.

As you may already know, Casio watches are typically sold with a polyurethane band that comes in a plain black color. Although the standard black watchstrap is a sturdy and durable option, odds are that you'd like to mix it up every now and then. Luckily for you, that's where we come in.

For example, if you have a G-Shock Casio watch, then all you need to do is purchase a "G-Shock Nato strap kit" that contains a:

• Nato strap
• Nato adapter
• Spring bar tool

Keep in mind that it will take several weeks for you to receive your new watchband replacement kit at your doorstep or in the mail. Once you open up your box of supplies, you can start by loosening up your watch's "main pin" with your new spring bar tool.

Then, push in the pin to loosen it again, removing your watch band in the process. After you separate the pin from your old watchband, slide the pin back in near the watch's adapter.

Next, put the adapter back into the proper spot on your Casio watch. Before you slide your strap back in, double-check to make sure that your pin is clearly secured as well!

Replacing Strap Adaptors for Your Casio

From activity trackers to classic watches, there are lots of options when it comes to replacing watch strap attachments. For starters, your watch band replacement kit contains a spring bar that measures about 16 millimeters in length. This should be the perfect size to fit your Casio watch adapter, allowing you to switch watch bands with ease.

On the other hand, some casio watch band replacement kits come with several spring bars that are thinner in size. Obviously, this will make it simpler to install your Casio adapter. If not, prepare to cut some resin on your adapter for a better fit.

Have you fastened your adapter onto your Casio watch yet?

If so, you're already one step ahead of the game. At this point, switching out your shop should be extremely effortless. Plus, you'll be able to switch out your watch band whenever you feel the need. No matter if your old strap was worn out or played out, there's no harm with adding accessories to make your Casio watch shine from the rest.

When you're ready, pick up your spring bar tool and use it to push it inside of the lug hole. You will know that you are in the right spot when you can feel the inside of the lugs on your spring bar tool. Since one side of your spring bar hole won't be visible, it is definitely difficult to put the spring bar into the right spot.

But wait - there's more…  

Last Steps to Replace Your Casio Watch Band

For those of you who are having some difficulties, try to pull the watch's adapter to ensure that it is securely placed before sliding in your strap. When you are done, hold the adapter and slide in part of your watch strap through your adapter.
