I’m really hoping - regardless of color - that it will stretch!

If u r going to keep it: Try putting it on when your wrist is a tiny bit damp, the tiny bit of water makes it more comfortable, just like if you dampen your feet before putting on tight shoes. The leather will bend to your body.
Do any of you have the double your strap in the longer length? If so, how do you like it and anyone have a pics of it on your watch and being worn?? Thanks [emoji4]
I have the opposite problem with watch straps- they are always too long on me.
I always get extra holes punched in (more than I initially need, in order to accommodate the stretching of the strap).
Barenia does stretch, so my suggestion would be to keep at it. Wear it over a thin sleeve, say the sleeve of the heattech thermals we all need to wear these super cold days. A bit like breaking in new shoes wearing nylons rather than jumping in with no socks on.
That indigo barenia is glorious.

I wear 38 but I tried my DH’s and it’s not snug on me even on the 1st buckle hole & just couldn’t make it work.
With 38, I was on the 4th hole when it was new, but it has stretched a bit so now I’m in the third.
For reference, my wrist is 16 cm, wears sz 17 love bangle & small clic clac.
Thank you. Is yours the double tour? I like that one, but the band seems so short, had to put it on the last hole
My wrist is 6.25 inches (~16 cm). The overall length of my double tour is 16 inches. My watch is about 2 years old and has been worn daily.I wear a 42. I was gifted the medor band for Christmas and really wanted to keep it but was worried about the size. In the end I tried it on in the Apple store. It was way too big. Extra holes would have been necessary and the extra strap reached the watch face.
So yes. The leather band was too big for me. My wrist is about 15 cm.
I really don't know. I purchased it at FSH in late March 2016. I'm not sure if the longer band was available then.
Thanks for posting this seasounds!
I measured mine:
It is smaller than yours!
My wrist is about the same size as yours, but my band is an inch smaller - making the band really tight. I’m still working on stretching it though!
