3mm profile
Thin enough that your hand does not notice it is there.
Scratches on your Rolex can happen fast
A Rolex bracelet meets the palm rest with every keystroke, and over time that contact shows. ChronoPad® adds a soft, low profile barrier exactly where your wrist rests, so you keep the watch on and keep working. It installs in minutes, sits flush with a minimal setup, and protects both finishes at once.
- Protects palm rest from bracelet contact
- Clean fit on MacBook finishes
- Comfortable for long typing sessions
- Easily removed without residue
The problem
Protect your Rolex and your MacBook
A Rolex is made to be worn, also while you work. But when you type on a MacBook every day, the watch bracelet or clasp can come into contact with the palm rest. Over time, this can cause small scratches, scuffs, or signs of wear on the laptop finish. ChronoPad® helps reduce that daily friction by adding a soft, low profile protective layer exactly where your wrist rests.
The result is simple: you can keep wearing your Rolex while working on your MacBook, without constantly worrying about contact between the bracelet and the aluminium surface. ChronoPad® is designed to fit cleanly on modern MacBooks, with a minimal look that blends into your setup.

Remove the film without touching the adhesive side.

Stick the top edge in place
Line up the top edge, then smooth it down to avoid bubbles.
Step 4

Made for watch wearers
Palm rest protection for watch wearers
ChronoPad® is especially useful for anyone who wears a Rolex, luxury watch, metal bracelet, or clasp while using a laptop. Instead of taking your watch off every time you start working, you can place a protective barrier between your wrist and your MacBook. This helps protect the palm rest from visible marks while also reducing direct contact with your watch bracelet.
Each ChronoPad® is designed for everyday use. Whether you work from home, at the office, while travelling, or in a creative studio, the pad gives your MacBook extra protection without changing how you type. It is comfortable during long typing sessions, easy to apply, and can be removed without leaving residue when used correctly.

Each set contains two pads, one for each side of the trackpad, and both pads in a set share the same dimensions. These are the outer dimensions of a single pad.
| ChronoPad | Cut for | Width | Depth |
|---|---|---|---|
| 13″ | MacBook Air 13″ | 83 mm | 86 mm |
| 14″ | MacBook Pro 14″ | 86 mm | 86 mm |
| 16″ | MacBook Pro 16″ | 93 mm | 105 mm |
A ChronoPad is not a plain rectangle: the last 5 mm along the front edge is narrower so it stays clear of the trackpad, measuring 72 mm on the 13″, 75 mm on the 14″ and 82 mm on the 16″. Applied correctly the pad leaves 3 mm to the keyboard and 5 mm to the trackpad.
ChronoPad® is designed and cut for MacBook decks, so we cannot promise a perfect fit on another brand. The pad itself attaches the same way on any clean, flat surface, so if the measurements work it will do exactly the same job.
Measure the usable area of your palm rest, between the keyboard and the front edge and between the side and the trackpad, and compare it with the sizes above. One warning about screen size: a 16″ Windows laptop usually has a noticeably shallower palm rest than a MacBook Pro 16, so the 16″ ChronoPad is often too deep for it. Choose the size that matches your measurements, not the size that matches your screen. Every order has a 30 day return window if it turns out not to sit right.
ChronoPad® is a soft protective pad for your MacBook palm rest. It sits exactly where your wrist rests while you work and helps prevent scratches caused by watches, metal bracelets or jewellery.
If you often work on your MacBook while wearing a watch, bracelet or jewellery, the palm rest can get scratched over time. ChronoPad® helps protect that area while still feeling soft and comfortable on your skin.
ChronoPad® is available in Space Black, Silver and Midnight. These colours are designed to blend in nicely with popular MacBook finishes.
Yes, ChronoPad® is designed to blend in with MacBook finishes, so it protects your palm rest without looking out of place.
ChronoPad® is made in three sizes, each cut for a specific deck: the 13″ for the MacBook Air 13″ (83 × 86 mm per pad), the 14″ for the MacBook Pro 14″ (86 × 86 mm) and the 16″ for the MacBook Pro 16″ (93 × 105 mm). If your MacBook is one of those models, pick the matching size and it fits as designed.
Older or smaller MacBooks, and laptops from other brands, are not covered by a dedicated size. That does not always mean it will not work: measure the usable area of your palm rest and compare it with the three sizes above. If one of them fits your measurements, the pad will do the same job.
Yes, you can order multiple ChronoPad®s at once. This is useful for teams, companies, events or branded business gifts.
Yes, customisation for companies is possible. You can contact us through the contact form to discuss the options, quantities and design possibilities.
