Why did the designers come up with a long watch strap? So that we think about the thickness of the wrist? Or to save on bracelets? One way or another, a watch on a long thin leather strap, like Hermès, on a metal chain in two or three turns, like in Chanel, or on a flexible ceramic bracelet, like Bulgari, looks like a self-sufficient accessory.
