Change the strap of your Atelier Jalaper DB5 collection watch
Do you own a watch based on an Aston Martin DB5 and want to explore the possibilities of personalisation by changing its strap? In this article, we'll look in detail at the process of changing the strap on your Aston Martin DB5 dedicated watch, highlighting the different options available and the steps to follow for a successful change.
The strap included with your DB5 collection watch
When you purchase a watch from the Aston Martin DB5 collection, it is usually accompanied by a carefully selected strap to complement the design and aesthetics of the watch. This strap is often made from high quality leather, offering comfort, durability and style. However, if you wish to further personalise your watch by changing the strap, there are a number of options available to you.
Strap options for your AJ DB5 collection watch
At Atelier Jalaper, we offer a range of watch straps specifically designed to fit the DB5 collection. These straps are available in a variety of materials, including high quality leather, offering a wide range of personalisation options for your watch.
The different types of bracelets
- The Sunday Rider: A brown nubuck leather strap offering a timelessly elegant aesthetic that perfectly complements the vintage design of the watch made from the Aston Martin DB5.
- The Dandy: For a more formal and classic look, opt for an elegant black leather strap with a crocodile print. This strap adds a touch of refinement to your watch, perfect for special occasions.
- The Racer: For a sporty, casual look, a calfskin leather strap with red stitching may be the ideal option. This strap adds a vibrant splash of colour and a retro racing look to your Aston Martin DB5-inspired watch.
- The G-Force: A grey/black calfskin leather strap with a carbon-effect texture. Modern, it offers a contemporary and versatile aesthetic that adapts to all occasions. This strap perfectly complements the sleek, elegant design of the watch based on the Aston Martin DB5.
- NATO: A nylon strap with a summer motif. Modern, versatile and above all lightweight, the NATO will be the perfect replacement for your Atelier Jalaper watch during fine weather and holidays.
The process of changing wristbands
Changing the strap on your watch based on an Aston Martin DB5 is a relatively simple process, but it does require a few tools and some expertise. Here are the steps to follow for a successful strap change:
- Selecting the strap: Start by choosing the new strap you want to fit to your watch. Make sure you select a strap that matches the type of fastening on your DB5 collection watch (18mm lugs).
- Preparing the tools: Before you start, make sure you have the right tools to hand, including a strap-changing tool, spare bars and a small screwdriver if necessary.
- Removing the current strap: Use the strap change tool to gently remove the lugs that hold the current strap in place. Be careful not to scratch the watch case during this process.
- Installing the new strap: Once the current strap has been removed, align the new attachment bars with the corresponding holes in the watch case. Then insert the ends of the new strap into the bars and push them firmly into place.
- Finalising the Process: Once the new strap is correctly fitted and adjusted, make sure it is securely fastened in place by making a few twisting movements with your wrist. If everything is in order, your DB5 collection watch is ready to be worn with its new personalised strap.
However, if you don't feel comfortable changing the strap on your watch created from an Aston Martin DB5 bonnet yourself, it's best to call in a jeweller or watchmaker to carry out this task safely and without the risk of damaging your watch.
