I really noticed it a lot when wearing a fancy watch with a metal bracelet; as a result, that thing sat in a drawer for years. <\/p>\n<p>However, a few years ago, Cool Tools had an item from Form-Function-Form (FFF) that led me to seeing their <a href=\"https:\/\/formfunctionform.com\/product\/button-stud-watchband\/\">Button Stud leather watchbands<\/a> ($42). I&#8217;ve been using a couple of them since then and immediately loved them: Since its &#8220;catch&#8221; (the button stud) is above the wrist and the only thing under that wrist is seamless leather, it&#8217;s totally comfortable. And good looking too, I think. A bit of patina develops, so it&#8217;s all good. <\/p>\n<p>And yes, they do cost more than a lot of other bands, but none are going to be more comfortable. Button studs have been around a long time; we&#8217;ve got a WWII bayonet someone brought home from back then and that knife is kept in its scabbard with the same button-stud mechanism. So, tried-and-true, and I&#8217;d bet the concept is a lot older than that. FFF has a lot of different choices, so poke around,<\/p>\n<div class='ctx-module-container ctx_default_placement ctx-clearfix'><\/div><span class=\"ctx-article-root\"><!-- --><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Keeps wrist comfortable while typing<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":76,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[42],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33812"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33812"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33812\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":33815,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33812\/revisions\/33815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33812"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33812"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33812"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
