"SCUBA" Hook Strap™ - Dive Series - Limited Edition Elastic Watch Band - NMDIVE001-SCB

$69.00

Extreme Durability, Gone Amphibious. Introducing: The Limited Edition “SCUBA” Hook Strap™. As if recovered from the depths of our beautiful ocean, this striking series of watch bands are made from my latest “PRO” Plain Weave Military-Grade Polyester Elastic Webbing that greatly enhances durability, and features the world’s first properly “Lumed” (glow-in-the-dark) watch band print technology, all with my proprietary Fixed Bar Compatible, 316 Stainless Steel “G-Hook” hardware and custom engravings to suit.

Something of the "Flagship" model in this lineup (pun very much intended), the "Scuba" takes its intentionally bold appearance from that of the quintessential North American "Diver Down" flag. Typically rectangular in shape with a bright red background and contrasting white slash running from the top left to bottom right, this strap aims to reflect the same attention-grabbing qualities that are employed to alert nearby ships that a SCUBA diver is operating below the surface at a particular location.

To do so, an entirely new PRO Series elastic has been woven in a striking color I have aptly named "Alert Red". To complete the motif, a distinctive, continuous, white, silicone-based phosphorescent stripe has been printed down its center. This theme is also present on the stainless steel hardware with a matching stripe engraved diagonally across the surface.

While the overall impression of this strap could be referred to as "conspicuous" in the daylight, these characteristics shift dramatically at depth. Due to the effects of wavelength absorption, Red light is the first to be filtered out. So, at a mere 10 meters of depth, you are now effectively wearing a black strap with a glowing stripe; The perfect recipe to attract some attention from any curious inhabitants :)

OVERVIEW:

  • Limited Edition Print Designs: Thoughtfully designed, ocean-inspired patterns have been meticulously arranged for maximum visual impact and compatibility with the print technology.

  • Glow Technology: Featuring a state-of-the-art, 0.50mm-thick, applied silicone-based phosphorescent material, these prints not only glow as long as your watch lume does, but they’re incredibly durable in all environments. Available in Green (C3-ish) or Light Blue (BGW9-ish) glow colors!

  • Professional Series Elastic: These straps feature my latest “PRO” series of elastics that have been woven from scratch to perform in the deepest depths and the highest heights. Denser, stronger, and longer-lasting.

  • Tether Module v2: While currently still in development, this new Tether Module concept is going to be laser-cut from a super technical, high-strength composite RPET fabric (recycled polyester woven from plastic bottles recovered from the ocean) . It will be ultra thin, remarkably strong, and won’t cover your case back or heart-rate sensors. But ultimately, this attachment serves to retain one's timepiece in the event of a spring bar failure. It can be "toggled" on or off, and is entirely removable if so desired.

  • Special Hardware: Each Fixed Bar Compatible G-Hook is adorned with a highly detailed, custom engraving to match its print design. Applied right here in-house!

  • Legendary Packaging: Each order ships with an extremely unique packaging scheme in the form of an RPET Mesh Dive/Wash bag, a collector's card, plus a few extra special goodies. 🤿👌

  • Giving Back: 1% of all proceeds will be donated to our very own Monterey Bay Aquarium & Research Institute to assist in their world-renowned conservation efforts. This is now being matched dollar-for-dollar by a very generous donor! Making your purchase go that much further in supporting their incredibly inspiring mission.
