passant-24-2If the free end of your 18 mm strap keeps flapping about, this dark green silicone loop puts it back where it belongs. To choose the right size, measure your strap where the loop sits: it should read 18 mm. The silicone stretches slightly, so you can ease it over the strap without tools or any watchmaking know-how. Dark green offers a sober alternative to brighter greens.
Dark green has become a serious watch colour. Bottle and forest green dials appear on dress, field and dive watches, and they are often worn on dark green rubber bands. This keeper matches those straps closely, making a repair look seamless. On a black or brown band it is subtle enough to pass as a quiet accent.
Without it, the loose end of the strap moves freely, catches on clothing and makes the watch sit less securely. Keepers wear out because they are stretched every time you put the watch on. A fresh silicone one has full elasticity and holds the band tightly again.
Silicone also handles outdoor and water activities, from gardening to swimming, and cleans up with soapy water.
The keeper fits 18 mm straps. Lay a ruler across your band just behind the buckle. Tapered bands get narrower towards the clasp, so take the measurement at that point.
Does a dark green loop match a green dial watch? It complements deep green dials well, especially when the band is also dark green or black.
Will the dark green keeper look black from a distance? In low light it reads as very dark; in daylight the green is clearly visible.
