This is a replacement watch strap keeper for your cheap watches. All my (unexpensive) watches have broken this way so I made a universal solution. You need to print in aFLEXIBLE filament of any sort, but it does not need to be super flexible like ninja flex, it just needs to be able to stretch abit.

The measurements need to be measured according to the size of your watch and the tolerance of your printer, so you probably need a vernier caliper unless you want to approximate it.Ensure that the wall thickness is higher than the original strap as depending on what material the layer adhesion will be different.

If you decide to print with text, print the text side facedown. Depending on your printer and build surface, you might want to use a raft and/or supports. Otherwise, this should not be too demanding on your printer(flexible filament aside).

Leave suggestions in the comments, I will improve it when I am free.

Edit: thanks to user WrinklyWink for informing me of the proper name.

Tested Settings for semiflexible materials[not ninjaflex]

Using the following options:

TS = 7

lt = 1.7

w = 10.5

b = 9.7

l = 26.2

bt = 1.45

Highly recommended as its lasts much longer than default settings.
