Parachute-Style No-Pass Elastic Watch Strap // Original Bond
Available in 20mm and 22mm · Free Shipping on Every Order
Elastic parachute-style strap in the Original Bond colorway — olive, red, and black — with brushed steel hardware. The hook-and-loop system with a sliding steel keeper adjusts quickly and holds exactly where you set it, whether you wear your watch snug or with a little room to breathe.
Lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying. It is comfortable in the water, easy through a full day on the wrist, and at home on a wider range of watches than most straps manage. The Original Bond is a colorway with roots in military and field gear, and it shows — it works on tool watches the way a good piece of kit is supposed to work, without trying too hard.
No-Pass Construction
Standard elastic straps loop material under the watch case before threading back through. That extra layer raises the watch off the wrist, adds bulk, and throws off the balance. The No-Pass construction removes that loop entirely. The strap attaches directly at the lugs, the watch sits flat, and the profile stays slim and stable throughout the day. This design came directly from Seals Watch Company community feedback and has been the preferred configuration for the elastic strap lineup ever since.
Compatibility
Fits any watch with standard 20mm or 22mm lugs — field watches, dive watches, modern chronographs, and everyday sport pieces. The olive, red, and black combination pairs particularly well with tool watches and military-inspired designs. It also works well on the Omega x Swatch MoonSwatch, notably the Mercury and Moon variants, where the earthy tones complement the colorway without competing with the dial.

How to choose your width: Match the strap width to your watch lug width — the gap between the inner edges of your lugs, measured in millimeters. 20mm fits the majority of field watches, dive watches, and sport pieces. 22mm suits larger cases with wider lug spacing. Common 20mm watches include the Seiko SKX, Tudor Black Bay, and most standard field watch designs. Not sure? Use our strap size guide before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
It fits any watch with standard 20mm or 22mm lugs, which covers the large majority of field watches, dive watches, sport watches, and everyday pieces. If you are unsure of your lug width, measure the gap between the inner edges of your lugs in millimeters — that number is your size.
On a traditional elastic strap, the material loops under the watch case as part of the installation, adding a layer of bulk between the case and your wrist. The No-Pass design skips that loop. The strap attaches at the lugs and sits flat, so the watch rides lower on the wrist and the profile stays clean and stable throughout the day.
