What is Paracord?
"Parachute cord (also paracord or 550 cord when referring to type-III paracord) is a lightweight nylon kernmantle rope originally used in the suspension lines of parachutes. This cord is useful for many other tasks and is now used as a general purpose utility cord by both military personnel and civilians.
The yarns of the core (commonly referred to as "the guts") can also be removed when finer string is needed, for instance as sewing thread to repair gear, or to be used as fishing line in a survival situation. The nylon sheath is often used alone, the yarn in the core removed, when a thinner or less elastic cord is needed such as when used as a boot lace. Ends of the cord are almost always melted and crimped to prevent fraying.
In addition to purely utility functions, paracord can be used to fashion knotted or braided bracelets, lanyards, belts, and other decorative items. These are sometimes tied in a fashion that can easily be unraveled for use in a survival situation. Some companies use paracord in conjunction with other survival components to create everyday wearable survival kits.
Hikers and outdoor sports enthusiasts sometimes use "survival bracelets" made of several feet of paracord which is woven into a compact and wearable form. Such bracelets are meant to be unraveled when one needs rope for whatever purpose - securing cargo, lashing together poles, fixing broken straps or belts, or assisting with water rescues. Young survivalists (boy scouts) are also taught the importance of using the paracord as a survival tool.On the other hand, the paracord is a poor choice for an emergency tourniquet as its small diameter will crush tissue without applying the needed pressure to stop bleeding.
Additional uses for parachute cord are in the manufacture of items such as lanyards, belts, dog leashes, rosaries, and key chains. This is becoming more popular as crafters are discovering this material."

Плетение из Паракорда
I just made this on a G-Shock GD100 using 550 Paracord. It came out good, not great but good. It was a very tight squeeze when it came to going under the watch. I couldn't get two of the strands through the spring bars, so I had to literally bypass. It was ok, not a big deal. I also added a Compass with a survival clip.
Please tell us what kind of scissors your using at the end?
Gonna make it it's beautiful
And how do you change the watch battery? I'm doing it in two sections; it'll give me access to the watch back and also keep the watch slim on my wrist.
You can remove the pins and the cord will stay in place.
Good point. My watch is already thicker than I'd like, so I decided to do it in two sections. Came out pretty well, though I can't post photos in comments. Also, I don't cross over any cord in between knots. If doing a double wide solomon, every other knot I throw out two cords and tie one square knot. It looks great when you use smaller cord and have more knots. The little diamonds left between knots worked out great with the old watch clasp from my broken strap. Cheers!
fantastic creation

11:15 wtf? wont it fall apart since it doesnt glued or something that?
I'd probably leave bit more extra cord, but melting and flattening is usually sufficient...
