The video site says to round down, but the fractional inch to metric conversion on this site has 11/16″ = to 18mm. 11/16″ is 17.4625mm. Shouldn’t that round down to 17mm? Measuring the lugs with metric calipers, I get 17.4mm. I can’t figure out if I need a 17mm or 18mm band. Please help.

It would better to round down to make sure the pin/band fits between the lugs. If you are between sizes, it would be better to start on the smaller size.
Awesome!
All the watches are very stylish and attractive…Thanks for sharing with your informative video.
Waiting for the next video…
Really curious to see if you can post some proprietary watchband adjustment videos: Blancpain X71, Omega, AP, etc.
Awesome!
This is a great resource.
Keep up the good work.
