Huawei Watch 3 Straps — What Fits
The Huawei Watch 3 and Watch 3 Pro, released in 2021, both use a 22mm quick-release strap, and every style in this collection is cut to that exact width, so any strap here works as a replacement strap for either watch.
Every strap uses a spring-bar quick release, so no tools are needed: a small lever on the underside of the strap retracts the bar, letting the old strap lift out and the new one click into the same lug holes.
Since its 2021 launch, the Watch 3 and Watch 3 Pro have kept the same 22mm lug spacing, so straps bought today will keep fitting the watch no matter how many software updates it receives. Buying straps separately also means you aren't limited to the color your watch shipped with — you can match a strap to an outfit, rotate styles through the week, or keep a dedicated strap just for workouts.

Strap Styles for the Watch 3 and Watch 3 Pro
Because the Watch 3 and Watch 3 Pro share one width, every style below fits both watches the same way — there's no case-size matching to worry about like there sometimes is on the GT line. All six of our quick-release styles are available in 22mm:
- Vornis silicone sport — sweat- and water-resistant, the default pick for workouts; rinses clean in seconds and won't hold onto odor.
- Véllo nylon loop and Voren nylon loop — adjustable, breathable, hook-and-loop designs for all-day and overnight wear, including sleep tracking.
- Solin magnetic milanese — stainless mesh with a magnetic clasp for a dressier, office-ready look that adjusts to any wrist instantly.
- Mavric braided loop — a softer, woven-fabric alternative to milanese for everyday wear that still looks put together.
- Rovan magnetic loop — light and breathable enough for all-day wear, including sleep tracking, with the same instant magnetic close as Solin.
Swapping Your Watch 3 Strap
Changing a Watch 3 strap takes seconds and no tools, using the same quick-release spring bar on every style in this collection, whether you're coming from the box strap or another quick-release strap:
- Turn the watch over and find the small lever on the underside of the current strap.
- Push the lever in to retract the spring bar, then lift the strap out of the lugs.
- Align the new strap's spring bar with the same lug holes and press until it clicks.
- Tug gently on both sides to confirm the strap is fully seated before wearing it.
Caring for Your Straps
Silicone rinses clean with water and a little mild soap. Nylon loop straps should be hand washed and air dried rather than tumble dried, which wears down the hook-and-loop closure. Wipe the magnetic milanese and magnetic loop straps dry after sweat or water exposure to keep the mesh finish looking new. Store any strap you aren't currently wearing somewhere dry and out of direct light to keep colors from fading over time. Because the Watch 3 has been available since 2021, older original straps are good candidates for replacement if the clasp or fabric shows wear.
Which Watches Don't Fit These Straps
A Huawei Watch 3 strap is built for the Watch 3's own 22mm lugs, the same width the Watch 3 Pro has used since both launched in 2021. Both take 22mm, so there is no second width to choose between here. A few unrelated Huawei products need a different system entirely:
- The Huawei Watch Fit line — Fit, Fit SE, Fit mini, Fit 2, Fit 3, Fit 4/4 Pro and Fit 5/5 Pro — uses a proprietary connector, not quick-release lugs, so standard straps do not fit any Watch Fit model.
- Huawei Watch D and D2 use a blood-pressure airbag cuff strap, so no standard strap fits either watch.
- The Huawei Strap series and Watch GT Cyber are not compatible with standard quick-release straps.
- Huawei moved several small cases from 20mm to 18mm in 2023 — GT 4 41mm, GT 5 41mm, GT 5 Pro 42mm, GT 6 41mm and Watch 5 42mm all use 18mm now, not 20mm, while older watches like the GT 2 42mm and GT 3 42mm remain 20mm. None of this affects the Watch 3, which stays at 22mm, but it's worth knowing if you shop across models.
