Based on the parachute webbing material used by the famous French Marine Nationale troops this watch strap has been at the core of the ZULUDIVER collection for many years – and is consistently in the top ten selling products across the company. The original combat straps were worn on Tudor Submariners which were issued as standard to this elite force.

The success of this strap is down to construction and materials. Made totally without compromise, Marine Nationale straps are incredibly tough, and the large colour range is available only in subdued military tones with a distinctive single stripe – just like the original straps. Our Marine ZD straps were built to be worn on tool watches which naturally compliment the 1.2mm thick woven nylon fabric with a stainless blasted steel buckle and keepers.

Selection of the stripe colour is important as this can pick up even the smallest accents on a watch.

There are thirteen Marine Nationale straps to choose from so there will definitely be a model to suit your watch.
