ordered a milanese loop stainless steel watch band thing for my original Pebble watch. It said it’d fit, and sure enough it didn’t. With no returns accepted, I decided to just make it work. AND NOW YOU CAN MAKE IT WORK. Just print these out as as long as you have 3 lugs for your watch band, this should work for any watch with 22mm lug size. You could also just print two extenders if you have a different watch band but then you need 4 lugs. I’m sure you can find those somewhere.
Don’t have a printer? Leave a comment. I’m sure someone will print one for you. My only thing is I don’t want people selling these. For one they’re hardly worth anything. Maybe 5 cents of material. I can find that rolling down a hill. I’ll send you some if you pay for an envelope. I also don’t want people profiting off my work, as minuscule as it may be.
About the part itself; I printed these out of ABS on an Afinia H400. The original swivel part broke, so this one was beefed up a little more and should be fine for a while. If it breaks, it’s 5 cents of material. The watch band can’t seat into my Pebble smart watch far enough for the lugs to seat in the holes. That’s what these two parts are meant to fix. It’s 22mm btw.
If there are any issues, comments, ideas, questions, or concerns, please feel free to send me a message.

Printed flat on 2.8mm thickness with 1.4mm slot facing up. Wall thickness set to 2 or 3 layers. These are small parts and need all the strength they can get. I used ABS but try PLA and let me know how it feels.
