Ribbed Military Nylon Watch Straps 22mm Navy Blue Ridged Woven Fabric Colourful Double Pass Band Heavy Duty Brushed Stainless Steel Buckle & Fittings (Blue, 22 mm)

[HISTORY] The military style double-pass nylon watch band was developed by the British Ministry of Defence in 1973. The requirement was to create a watch band that could handle water, be fitted easily to fixed spring bar watches without the need for tools and would keep the watch secure even if one spring bar broke. What they came up with would soon become a classic strap, used the world over. The great thing about pass-through straps is they are easy to swap around, extremely durable and suit any occasion. [DESIGN] This ridged style builds on that classic design, keeping the ultra secure double-pass design and the classic look of military webbing, but swapping out the cheap ballistic fabric for premium ribbed nylon. This modern update prioritises both comfort and durability – designed to withstand the wear and tear of everyday use without compromising on comfort and style. A high-quality brushed stainless steel buckle, sewn-in keepers and laser-sealed sizing holes finish the look. [8 BOLD COLOURS] These straps are available in our two most popular sizes – 20mm and 22mm – and in 8 colours – black, blue, grey, green, khaki, yellow, orange, and red. The 20mm styles are compatible with the Swatch x Omega MoonSwatch Models, and we think the colourways make a great paring. Whether you’re after classic military colours or a bright and sporty style, we’ve got you covered. And since you can swap them in seconds without a tool, you can mix and match at your leisure.
