Khaki silicone watch strap loop for 14 mm straps
Keep your strap end under control with this khaki silicone keeper, made for 14 mm watch bands. It carries no logo or…
passant-14-11Designed for straps 20 mm wide, this coral watch strap loop is cut from flexible silicone. Coral brings a fresh, holiday feel to a casual watch. Waterproof and hard-wearing, it copes happily with sport and everyday wear. The 20 mm figure is the inner width of the loop, which should match the width of your strap. A quick wash in soapy water is all it needs to stay clean.
Coral is a warm mix of pink and orange, cheerful without being loud. On a watch it suggests holidays and outdoor sport, and it works particularly well against white, cream, turquoise or navy straps, where the warm tone stands out clearly. On a coral band, of course, it matches and simply restores the strap to how it looked when new.
Women's sports watches and fitness trackers often come in this sort of shade, and a 20 mm strap on a larger model can carry it nicely. It also brightens a plain grey or black band if you fancy a small splash of colour at the wrist.
Silicone keepers lead a hard life. They are stretched every time the strap is fastened, so after a few seasons they may split, loosen or slip off and get lost. A loose loop lets the strap tip wave around and catch on clothing, and on some watches the band can work itself free. A new ring solves that straight away.
This one is soft, waterproof and washable with mild soap. It is sized for a 20 mm wide strap, measured flat with a ruler where the keeper rests.
Does coral look more pink or more orange? It sits between the two: a warm pinkish orange, softer than a pure orange.
Is the coral keeper suitable for swimming? Yes. Silicone tolerates chlorine and salt water; a quick rinse afterwards keeps the colour bright.
