passant-20-16Lost the little loop that holds the end of your strap? This khaki silicone watch strap loop fits straps 12 mm wide and slips into place in seconds. Khaki is an easy match for field-style, olive and earthy-toned straps. The silicone stretches slightly, so you can ease it over the strap without tools or any watchmaking know-how. To choose the right size, measure your strap where the loop sits: it should read 12 mm.
Khaki carries an outdoorsy, military feel. It belongs on field watches, hiking companions and casual pieces paired with olive or sand-coloured bands. A khaki keeper keeps that look coherent instead of breaking it with an odd colour.
Silicone makes sense for a watch that gets taken into the woods or onto a campsite. The loop stays supple in cold weather, does not mind rain or muddy streams, and can be scrubbed clean with soapy water when you get home. It stretches just enough to slide over the strap, then tightens around it.
If your current loop has torn or slipped off somewhere along a trail, this is a direct replacement. It is also worth having a second one tucked into a pack or a drawer.
The keeper fits straps that are 12 mm wide. That is a narrow size, typical of smaller field watches, women's models and children's watches. Measure across your band near the buckle, in millimetres, to be sure it matches.
Does khaki go with a black strap? It can, giving a utilitarian contrast, though it looks most natural on green, brown or beige bands.
Will mud stain the khaki silicone? Rinse it off quickly with soap and water and the colour comes back.
