The SPD Ti-MNPara Strap is inspired directly from the original French Navy (Marine Nationale) combat diver's versions as first worn in the 1960-70s. Ours feature all titanium hardware and best grade nylon-Spandex strapping. One of the most comfortable and adjustable watch straps made today. Fits watches with 22mm width lugs. Available in the original, vintage rigger's style olive green with yellow color combo. Works with any watch that has removable spring bars. #timnpara
During the 1960s, the French Navy combat divers saw a need to securely wear and adjust their dive watches, but did not find anything quite suitable for their needs available at that time. Repurposing elastic nylon strapping from military issue parachute rigging and forming some bits of metal hardware, came up with this (originally handmade) design. PDW built up from this baseline and used the best available nylon with Spandex (far more durable and resilient than generic elastics) strapping, 100% titanium in the rings and clasp for total corrosion resistance on land or under the sea, and 100% non-magnetic as to not interfere with the strap worn compasses such as our EWB-Compass Kit. With the proliferation of rare earth magnets being used in today's bags, wallets, key fobs, and other EDC items, we found that these magnets affected the typical stainless hardware as used in most other types of straps on the market. Not only are rare earth magnets harmful to the internal mechanics of a fine mechanical watch, the magnetized stainless steel hardware affected any compasses used as supporting accessories on a watch strap. Our Ti-MNPara Strap eliminated magnetic interference, offers superior performance, total corrosion resistance and durability in the field.
I have a lot of watches and even more straps form nylon to canvas to leather, to silicone, to steel and even titanium bracelets. These straps are among the best! Comfortable, convenient, look good. I can't recommend these enough and it's a good price for the quality of materials.

Get the strap!!!
Great diver strap for my watch. Comfortable to wear, stylish, and durable.
I wish there were more design/color options. A blue strap would be a welcome addition.
I'll keep checking in to see if my wish is ever granted.😜
