Silicone watch strap keeper, light green, for 24 mm straps
Here is a simple fix for a tired strap: a light green silicone keeper with a 24 mm inner width. Light green is fresh…
passant-24-11This sky blue silicone keeper is sized for 14 mm watch straps, with an inner width that matches the strap itself. Sky blue pairs nicely with grey and white as well as matching blue bands. Check that your strap measures 14 mm across at the keeper before choosing this size. Soft yet robust, it is pleasant to wear and keeps its hold on the strap.
Pale, airy and cheerful, sky blue is a shade that works best on light summer straps, pastel children's watches and fashion watches with white or silver cases. This keeper lets you restore that soft colour after the original loop has gone missing, instead of making do with a mismatched black or clear one.
Anyone wearing a 14 mm strap in sky blue, baby blue or a similar light tone will find a near match here. It also sits well on a white or light grey band, where it reads as a gentle accent. Many small kids' watches and slim ladies' models use straps of this width, so it is a sensible spare to keep in a drawer.
The silicone is flexible enough to be rolled over the tip of the strap and pulled into position. It does not absorb water, so splashing in the pool or washing hands is no problem. Should it pick up marks from felt-tip pens or playground dirt, a gentle scrub with soapy water and a soft brush usually clears them.
How do I know my strap is 14 mm? Measure straight across the band near the buckle, where the keeper goes, using a millimetre ruler. A reading of 14 mm means this size fits.
Is sky blue suitable for a child's watch? Yes, the light shade and soft silicone are well suited to children's straps of 14 mm, and the loop is easy to put back on.
