Our 1973 British Military Watch Strap: Armoured Recon collection is made from high-strength seatbelt nylon webbing, and fitted with premium-grade stainless steel hardware, which includes the ZULUDIVER etching on the buckle and the keeper at 6 o'clock.

The time-tested design (interweaving and passing through the lugs) ensures added security for your watch if a spring bar pops out during vigorous activity. As with all our watch straps, this example has been carefully crafted with sturdy stitched joints for a long service life complementing your favourite watches.
