Details and materials
Fluoroelastomer (FKM) is the denser, higher-grade rubber used on serious dive straps. It doesn't attract lint, doesn't go chalky in the sun and shrugs off sweat, chlorine and salt water. The woven texture keeps it looking smart rather than sporty-cheap.
- FKM rubber with a woven pattern
- Brushed stainless steel buckle
- Quick-release spring bars, already fitted
- Available in 20mm and 22mm
Sizing and fit
Pick the width that matches your watch's lug width: the gap where the strap slots in. Most watches around 38 to 40mm take 20mm, and most around 42 to 45mm take 22mm. Always check your exact model.
The size guide shows three quick ways to check, or email us your watch model and we'll tell you which one to order.

Care
Rinse under the tap after the sea or the pool, with a drop of mild soap if needed. Pat dry. That's it.
FKM rubber
Why FKM, not silicone
Silicone is cheap, sticky and grabs every bit of lint in the room. FKM is the rubber used on proper dive straps: denser, smoother, and it keeps its colour and shape through summers of sweat, chlorine and sea water.
