Pale pink silicone watch strap loop for 16 mm straps
This pale pink silicone keeper is sized for 16 mm watch straps, with an inner width that matches the strap itself.…
passant-16-16If the free end of your 16 mm strap keeps flapping about, this khaki silicone loop puts it back where it belongs. Khaki is an easy match for field-style, olive and earthy-toned straps. Durable and flexible, it holds the strap end neatly in place all day long. Check that your strap measures 16 mm across at the keeper before choosing this size.
Khaki belongs to the outdoors: military-style field watches, hiking pieces, canvas-look straps and olive dials. A khaki silicone loop on a 16 mm band keeps that utilitarian character intact, rather than introducing a colour that fights with it. On a black or sand strap it also looks right, a quiet earthy accent.
Silicone suits the khaki spirit well. It shrugs off rain, river crossings and sweat, does not crack in the cold, and can be cleaned with a little soap and water after a muddy weekend. Its elasticity means you can fit it by hand in the field: stretch it over the end of the strap, slide it towards the buckle, done.
Check that your band measures 16 mm before choosing this one. The figure is the width of the strap the loop accepts, measured across the band near the clasp. Smaller field watches and women's outdoor models often use this size, but your ruler is the final judge.
If your keeper has snapped on a branch or a rucksack strap, this is the quick way to get the strap end under control again.
Is khaki the same as dark green? No. Khaki is a muted olive with a brownish tone; dark green is deeper and cooler.
Will it suit a 16 mm sand-coloured strap? Yes, khaki and sand are classic partners on military-inspired watches.
