Silicone watch strap keeper, black, for 20 mm straps
Give a 20 mm silicone or rubber strap a fresh keeper with this loop in black. Black stays discreet on a black strap…
passant-20-6Designed for straps 19 mm wide, this khaki watch strap loop is cut from flexible silicone. The 19 mm figure is the inner width of the loop, which should match the width of your strap. Waterproof and hard-wearing, it copes happily with sport and everyday wear. The muted khaki shade sits naturally on military-inspired and outdoor watches. A quick wash in soapy water is all it needs to stay clean.
Khaki belongs on field watches, military-inspired designs and straps made for walking, camping and fishing. It is an earthy, olive-brown green that hides dust and mud well and sits naturally next to sand or black dials.
Losing a keeper outdoors is easy: it catches on a branch or a rucksack strap and disappears. Replacing it with the same khaki keeps your field watch looking coherent. A spare one tucked into a kit bag is a sensible precaution.
Silicone tolerates rain, river crossings and sweat. When you get home, swish it in soapy water to remove grit, which otherwise wears the strap over time. The material is stretchy, so it goes on by hand even with cold fingers.
Use it on a strap measuring 19 mm across. Lay a ruler over the band near the buckle where the keeper slides, and confirm the width before ordering.
What is the difference between khaki and dark green? Khaki has a brownish, olive cast, while dark green is a deeper, cooler forest tone.
Will mud stain a khaki silicone keeper? Mud rinses off silicone easily; the earthy colour also makes any residue far less noticeable.
