Designed for straps 17 mm wide, this purple watch strap loop is cut from flexible silicone. Purple adds a bold note of…
passant-17-5Has the keeper on your 19 mm strap snapped? This orange silicone replacement restores a tidy finish. Once the buckle is closed, the end of the strap lies flat instead of catching on your sleeves. Orange is bold and sporty, ideal for matching an orange strap or brightening a dark one. To choose the right size, measure your strap where the loop sits: it should read 19 mm.
Orange has a long history on dive watches, where it improves legibility underwater. Today it appears on hands, bezels and straps of sports and adventure models. An orange keeper continues that look and gives a watch a confident, playful touch.
Matched with an orange strap, it keeps the colour scheme complete after a loss. Fitted to a black, navy or grey strap, it becomes a deliberate flash of colour that picks up orange markings on the dial or the seconds hand.
Silicone is a good choice for anyone who swims, sails or trains. It is not bothered by salt, chlorine or perspiration, and dries quickly. To fit it, stretch it slightly and roll it onto the strap tail; it then snaps back to grip the band.
This keeper suits a 19 mm strap. The simplest check is to measure the band at the spot where the keeper sits, just after the buckle, using a millimetre ruler.
Does orange go with a blue strap? Yes, orange and blue are complementary colours and make a striking, sporty pairing.
Will chlorine damage an orange silicone loop? No; rinsing it with fresh water after the pool is enough to keep it in good condition.
