Notes on skin irritation and allergy Skin irritation caused by a band has various reasons such as allergy to metals or leathers, or skin reactions against friction on dust or the band itself. Notes on the length of the band Adjust the band to allow a little clearance with your wrist to ensure proper airflow. When wearing the watch, leave enough room to insert a finger between the band and your wrist. 123
