A quick look on ebay reveals 18mm lug width for both the WA1214 and WA1211. The 22mm will not fit. I'd look on ebay for a suitable replacement.

: I have two Tag Heuer watches. One was given to me by a girlfriend
: that bought it at Macys in the late 1990s. The other we
: purchased for my dad, i think from Costco, in the late 1990s.
: They look pretty similar. One the back of the watches are what
: look like model numbers: my watch from Macys has WA1211 stamped
: on it, and my dad's from Costco has WA1214.
: The watch band on my WA1211 was originally rubber and had a sporty
: look to it. That band broke and I haven't found a good looking
: replacement, so I used a leather replacement for awhile, but I
: reallly don't like that look. I haven't worn either of these
: watches in a few years, but now have decided to start wearing
: them again. Both watches have been work as daily watches for
: years, so have obvious wear and scratches on them. I'm not
: looking to keep these as pristine watches, but instead as daily
: wear watches. I'm hoping to put on an aftermarket rubber band
: for a sporty look on the costco WA1214 watch as well as the
: WA1211.
: I've found what looks like decent aftermarket replacement bands on
: Amazon for about $25.00.
: This one is 22mm. How do I tell if my watch is 22mm or a different
: size? Any other suggestions on aftermarket watch bands for these
: watches?
: Thanks for any advice!
