Watch strap in 22mm orange premium FKM rubber, microperforated Tropic type. Waterproof and hypoallergenic, this diving strap reproduces the basket-weave pattern of the original Tropic. A safety colour at sea, orange pops on a dark dial. Quick-release spring bars, satin stainless steel buckle.
A collector's cult like the NATO, the Tropic returns with reissues. It appeared on prized pieces: Lemania Regatta Yachting, Tissot Seastar or Yema Yachtingraf. We restore its details — basket weave, notched edge, period embossed back.
A safety colour at sea, orange pops on a dark dial.
Popularised on 1960s divers, the Tropic owes its success to simplicity: salt-resistant rubber, comfortable, tool-free to adjust. It equipped military watches and marine chronographs alike.
Unlike low-grade rubbers that whiten, our FKM keeps its colour and suppleness season after season. This hypoallergenic fluoroelastomer withstands seawater, sun and perspiration without degrading.
Our own footage: the FKM rubber strap filmed flat, underwater, then put to the test kitesurfing.
In the same marine spirit, this 22mm pairs with the Hirsch Pure rubber watch strap, also available in 22mm. For a sportier stitched finish, see the water-resistant Arezzo Racing strap.
