This sky blue silicone keeper is sized for 14 mm watch straps, with an inner width that matches the strap itself. Sky…
passant-14-13Designed for straps 26 mm wide, this blue watch strap loop is cut from flexible silicone. Measure the strap across, near the lugs or at the old keeper, and pick the same figure, here 26 mm. A quick wash in soapy water is all it needs to stay clean. Blue is a dependable everyday colour that matches most blue straps.
Blue is the colour most people reach for when they want a watch that works at the weekend and at the office alike. On a blue rubber strap this keeper simply disappears into the band; on a grey or black one it adds a discreet line of colour that echoes a blue dial or bezel. It looks at home on diving-inspired and sporty pieces, where wide straps are common.
On a 26 mm band the free end is long and fairly stiff. Without a keeper it springs out, snags on sleeves and bag straps, and gradually loses its shape. A loop that has torn or stretched loose no longer does its job, so replacing it is the simplest fix. This one is made of supple silicone: you ease it over the tail, it closes back around the band and stays put. Water, sweat and showers are no problem.
Before you order, measure the strap across its width close to the buckle. If the ruler reads 26 mm, this is the right size.
Does this blue keeper match a navy strap? It is a brighter, mid blue. On navy it reads as a gentle contrast rather than a perfect match; the navy keeper in the same width is the closer tone.
How do I fit it without removing the strap? Slip the pointed end of the strap through the loop, then slide the keeper along towards the buckle. Silicone flexes enough to make this easy.
