The WatchGecko Standard Issue Military Strap in the Air Force Issue variant is a single-piece nylon strap. It is woven with a tight, ribbed texture that provides durability for daily wear. The edges and adjustment holes are heat-sealed to prevent fraying, and the construction features reinforced stitching throughout.
This strap is available in lug widths of 18, 20, and 22 millimetres. It does not feature quick-release spring bars. The single-piece design slips behind the watch case to keep the timepiece secure on your wrist.
Change it yourself
One tool, a spare set of spring bars, and every swap takes a minute.
Fit it, care for it
