The Vintage Watch Company Military Watch Strap - Navy Blue

Military watch straps are not one-size-fits-all. Our collection features a wide spectrum of materials, from heavy-duty ballistic nylon for unmatched toughness, to silky-smooth seatbelt weave that offers both strength and comfort, and elastic webbing for an easy, snug fit on the wrist.

Whether you’re gearing up for outdoor adventures, dressing down for casual wear, or adding a rugged accent to a luxury timepiece, we have a military watch strap to perfectly match your style and purpose.

These watch straps are engineered with real-world durability in mind. Premium-grade nylon resists fraying and water damage, while robust stainless-steel buckles and keepers provide secure fastening.

Many of our designs use one-piece or regular UK military-style construction, which means your watch stays in place even if a spring bar fails - a vital feature for active lifestyles. Easy to thread and remove, these straps make changing your look quick and hassle-free without compromising on strength.

Our military watch strap collection spans multiple signature ranges - from the popular Ridge series with its textured vintage webbing, to smooth, contemporary seatbelt nylon straps, and innovative options like the OCTOPOD modular system.

With widths from 18mm to 24mm, you’ll find the right fit for everything from vintage field watches to modern divers. The variety ensures you can build a strap rotation that suits your watch collection, wardrobe, and activities all year round.

Many of our straps draw direct inspiration from the British Ministry of Defence specification designs that were issued to service personnel in the 1970s. This heritage is reflected in the robust materials, practical design, and understated style that defined those original straps.

By blending these vintage elements with modern manufacturing standards, we offer products that capture the authentic military look while delivering superior comfort, longevity, and precision fit for today’s watches.

While we honour the past, we also push forward with unique features that enhance the military strap concept. The WatchGecko OCTOPOD system, for example, combines military-style security with modular buckles, giving you the flexibility to customise your strap to your needs.

Modern weaving techniques improve strength and softness, and our custom hardware is designed for reliability and ease of use. It’s military heritage updated for the demands of the 21st century - practical, adaptable, and built to last.
