[Question] Is it possible to lengthen a leather strap? (alien.top)

I'll go ahead and say that I don't know anything about watches. But I was recently made aware of an antique watch gifted to me a long time ago by my great grandfather and I'd like to wear it, but the strap is just a *little* too short to be comfortable. Any advice for me?

Show a picture and people will help you figure out how to replace it.

We can’t help with your apparently unusual strap without pictures so we know what we’re dealing with.

How little. We talking 1 or 2mm? You can just get a longer buckle if that’s all it is
