This black keeper in plastic is made for watch straps 10 mm wide and works well on standard bands from sports and everyday watches. Rigid yet flexible, it grips the strap tip so it stays flat while you move. Fitting needs no tools or watchmaking knowledge, and if it picks up dirt, warm soapy water soon freshens it up.
Most small watches leave the factory on a black strap, and black is the colour that hides a repair best. If the band on your compact watch has lost its ring, or the old one has cracked through, this black plastic keeper for 10 mm straps slips into place and goes unnoticed.
A loose strap tail is more than an annoyance. It snags on jumpers and bag straps and can pull the pin of the buckle out of its hole at the worst moment. Holding the end flat against the band avoids all that. The rigid plastic ring is light on the wrist and fits especially well on black resin or plastic bands, the usual pairing on everyday and sports watches for smaller wrists.
Take the width of the strap itself, not the case, by laying a millimetre ruler across the band near the buckle. A reading of 10 mm means this ring is the one. That narrow size is common on ladies' and children's watches as well as on slim casual models.
Will black suit a coloured strap? On a red, orange or yellow band it acts as a graphic contrast; on a black band it simply vanishes.
How should I clean it? Rinse it under the tap with a little soapy water and dry it with a cloth.
