Hook Strap™ FBV3 PRO + Tether Module - Elastic Watch Band Combo

from $46.00

Unyielding Performance, Unlocked Potential . Introducing: The Hook Strap™ Tether Module Combo; This small but mighty textile insurance policy combines forces with the all-new Professional Series Fixed Bar Hook Straps to provide a bomb-proof strap solution for whatever life throws at your precious time keeper. 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.

The Hook Strap™ Fixed Bar v3 Stainless Steel; An inconceivably comfortable elastic watch band system that utilizes the industry’s first ever “Hook and Loop” closure system. Now with a modified entry slot to allow for “tool-less” installation! These dynamic bands are made to order from a proprietary, Military-Grade Woven Polyester Elastic Webbing, and custom machined 316 Stainless Steel “G-Hook” hardware.

FBV3 = Fixed Bar Version 3: This latest iteration utilizes a proprietary stitch method developed in-house that I call the “Overtack” stitch, which essentially welds the cut-end of the elastic down for smoother access between fixed bar watch lugs. It’s about 40x stronger than my traditional stitch, and serves a valuable purpose. But if you prefer the classic straight stitch, just drop a note in the comment field upon ordering.

FITMENT NOTE: Your watch will need at least 2mm of unobstructed space behind your fixed/spring bars to fit the elastic loop through the gaps. Otherwise, you will need to utilize the “guided ribbon assist” technique as detailed here, which should work even with the trickiest of lug spaces.

SHIPPING NOTE: Due to great demand, the current lead time is 8-10 WEEKS prior to order fulfillment.

SPECS:

  • Made from 1.8mm thick Military-Grade Woven Polyester Elastic Webbing that is built to perform in the deepest depths and the highest heights.

  • Featuring a Specially Modified, Super Durable, Low-Profile, Marine Grade 316 Stainless Steel Hardware in a Variety of Finish Options:

    • Brushed Silver: Machined surface to a brilliant raw steel appearance.

    • Anodized Black: A “tough as nails” MIL-A-8625 Type II Class 2 Military-Grade Hard Anodized Flat Black Finish.

    • Blasted Silver: Sandblasted stainless steel provides a tough, matte silver finish; great for reducing reflectivity in bright conditions.

    • Polished Silver: Mirror Polished stainless steel to match the more lustrous pieces of your collection.

    • Double-Sided Laser-Etched NMD Logo for reversibility.

  • 56-stitch “Over-Tack” construction with Extra Heavy Weight 100% Polyester Thread (for easier spring bar clearance).

  • The Tether Features Custom 2.00mm dia. wire-form aluminum alloy loops to prevent any contact blemishing.

  • 5” - 9” wrist sizes offered to achieve a perfectly tailored fit.

  • Comfortable. Breathable. Water resistant. Shock resistant. Low-Profile. Machine washable.

  • Conforms to wrist shape and stretches with your natural movements.

  • Tether is One Size Fits Most.

  • Smart Watch Friendly; Can be removed or worn beneath the wrist when heart sensors are needed.

  • Includes one Tether Module.

  • Handmade to order right here in the USA 🗽

  • Satisfaction Guaranteed 👍
