Period correct watch straps for WW2 and post war watches
Made for the watch collector.
Faithful reproductions of military straps of the 40's, 50's and 60's.
We started with the sought after AF0210 strap, and have remade other straps in response to community request.
The original AF0210 watch strap in Khaki
In military service for 35 years. Comfortable. Durable. Infinitely adjustable.
The AF0210 strap was extremely comfortable, and durable and saw military service for over 35 years
Currently, original stamped AF0210 straps command a price of £400 plus, more than many watches.
The A.F.0210. strap was introduced by the MoD for military watches and compasses in 1945, with a stores description A6/AF0210 : STRAP, WRIST, INSTRUMENT, quickly shortened to the AF0210 strap.
The original A6/A.F.0210. strap finished its service life in 1980 as DMC/NSN W10/6645-99-910-1003, Webbing, (DMC : STRAP, WRIST INSTRUM).
We purchased a NOS strap, (marked W10/6645-99-910-1003), and reverse engineered a reproduction, faithful to the original strap.
The history of the strap, and our other faithful reproductions can be seen in the blogs below.
