The 20mm waterproof watch strap Explorer khaki is built in layered leather, vintage matt calf surface, with a black natural rubber lining, stitched all round, that cannot rot. Thickness of 3.5 to 4 mm at the lugs. Standard length 190 mm. Marine stainless buckle 18 mm included and removable, compatible with an 18 mm deployant clasp as an option.
Our workshop shots show this khaki 20 mm waterproof watch strap fitted to a Triton dive watch. That is precisely the use case: a diver deserves a strap that does not fear water, and khaki leather gives it a character rubber cannot.
Khaki is not a muted brown: it is a dull green and reads as such on the wrist. It goes with black dials and graduated bezels, and works particularly well on reissues of military dive watches. Vintage matt calf surface tanned in Italy, black natural rubber lining that cannot rot: it takes the water, and the leather neither swells nor stiffens. The stitch running round it is what sets this build apart from a simple bonded lining.
