In 1964 the Tornek-Rayville military dive watch was issued on a strap meeting the military specification MIL-S-46383, STRAP, WRIST: INSTRUMENT of 20 July 1963.
The strap was the Type I – Strap, Special Purpose: Non-Magnetic Buckle.
This has been recreated in 20mm wide webbing to the original military specification, with a non-magnetic brass buckle, plated matt black. A 16mm wide webbing keeper is used.
This is not a modern homage to the Type I strap, it is a recreation of the 1960’s ribbed style webbing and buckle, and has the authentic 1960’s feel.
Due to demand, currently we are remaking the strap with the non-magnetic matt black plated brass buckle, and the brass buckle, and only have Stainless Steel buckle straps in stock
The strap has also been made in a 16mm wide version to fit smaller lug width watches, with either a brass matt black plated buckle or stainless steel buckle.

Currently we are remaking the strap with the non-magnetic matt black plated brass buckle, and only have Stainless Steel buckles in stock. The remade version will be available in March 2023.
