Description

The 6B/2617 was the first nylon NATO strap issued in 1954 for the Mk11 navigator watch, the 6B/346.

We are now manufacturing and selling a faithful copy of this strap, primarily because of requests by supporters to produce a copy, true to the original strap width of 16mm.

We launched these on Kickstarter, and also wider 18mm and 20mm versions, and all were fully funded in one day.
