Fit & sizing notes for the A168 Vintage

18mm lug width36.3mm case38mmlug-to-lug
  • Width: buy 18mm straps. Tapered straps listed as 18/16mm or 18/14mm fit too; only the first number has to match. See strap sizes explained.
  • Spring bars: 18mm long, about 1.5mm diameter (spring bar sizes).
  • Wrist fit: at 38mm lug-to-lug it should sit within the top of wrists from about 12.7cm up (rule of thumb: lug-to-lug under ~30% of wrist size). That's longer than 2% of the watches in our index. See what size watch suits your wrist.
  • Strap thickness: at 8.8mm thick it's a slim case: thin leather (about 2.5–3mm) or a single-pass strap keeps it low; a regular NATO adds 1–2mm underneath.

Casio A168 Vintage — strap questions

What size strap does the A168 Vintage take?
The Casio A168 Vintage has a 18mm lug width, so you need a 18mm watch strap.
Will any 18mm strap fit the A168 Vintage?
Most will. Width is the main thing to match, but also check that the strap's spring-bar holes suit the bars, and that the strap is thin enough to clear the case between the lugs. A metal bracelet needs 18mm end-links made for this model.
What spring bar size does the A168 Vintage use?
18mm long and about 1.5mm in diameter (a typical figure; measure the original bar to be sure).
Is the A168 Vintage good for strap swapping?
Yes. With standard 18mm spring-bar lugs, NATO, leather, rubber and mesh straps can all be fitted with a spring-bar tool.
