passant-18-16Lost the little loop that holds the end of your strap? This navy blue silicone watch strap loop fits straps 18 mm wide and slips into place in seconds. It feels soft against the skin and does not mind water, so it can stay on for swimming, showers and workouts. Navy blue is a versatile, sober colour that rarely looks out of place. It is meant for straps exactly 18 mm wide, measured at the point where the loop sits.
Navy is the understated way to wear blue. On a dark blue rubber band it disappears into the strap, which is exactly what you want from a replacement part: nobody should notice that the keeper was ever changed. It also works alongside a deep blue dial on a smart-casual watch worn to the office as much as at the weekend.
If your current loop has split, stretched out or vanished, the strap end no longer stays put and tends to stick out from the wrist. Slipping on a new navy one brings the band back under control. The silicone is pliable, so it can be pulled over the strap tip without tools, and it keeps its grip afterwards.
This keeper is meant for a band 18 mm wide. Take the measurement across the strap where the loop will rest, close to the buckle. A watch whose lugs are 18 mm apart normally takes an 18 mm band, but tapered straps can narrow towards the clasp, so the tail is the place to check.
Is navy visible on a black 18 mm band? Only slightly; in daylight it reads as a very dark blue, while indoors it looks almost black.
Can sweat damage the navy keeper? No, silicone does not absorb perspiration and can be washed under the tap.
