Watch band widths are measured in millimeters. Most leather watch bands are marked with the size. As shown in the image below.

If your band has this number that is the width of the band you need for your watch.
If your band does not have this number then to determine the width of the watch band, you will need to measure the distance between the lugs (Lugs are where your band attaches to your watch). As shown below.

You can use a ruler with either inches or millimeters to measure. If you are using inches it will need to be converted to millimeters.
Note: When measuring please measure the watch between the lugs. Not the band. Watch bands can shrink or a wrong size could have been installed the last time.
The chart below will help you convert inches to millimeters.
