Objective

Simulate all situations of use associated with the use of a watch strap: pulling, twisting, strap sliding into loop, pin insertion into strap, exposure to perspiration, rubbing of strap against clothing, etc.

Observe any damage to the tested watchband (abrasion, elongation, loss of color).

Periodic observation every year of simulated use.
Image capture of any product degradation.
