FS: NOS vintage tropic style straps 18/20mm - €16

Hi all,

I’m selling my leftover unused NOS vintage ‘big hole’ / rally tropic style rubber straps in 18mm and 20mm lug widths. Still got a few sets left!

I got these of an old jewellers stock and have no more watches to put them on, unfortunately, so I’m pricing these to go before I do something silly… like buying more watches to put these on! :P

- 18mm price: 16 Euros

- 20mm price: 22 Euros

Payment via Paypal, no fees for me please, or bank transfer if you prefer.

Bracelets and I are located in Portugal, but I’m including world wide shipping cost to pricing already. This means regular standard mail, and not registered/insured. If you prefer that, let me know and I’ll find ou the cost.

A little more info on them:
These are all unused and in NOS condition but still remain extremely supple and soft with no cracks or anything. Very flexible and comfortable on the wrist. Some of the buckles say STAINLESS STEEL, others say HONG KONG STEEL. Both sizes feature slightly curved ends. Obviously, these are not authentic ‘Tropic’ branded straps and there may be very small discrepancies between them, and you can see the mold edging on some, but nothing serious. However, they look very good and fitting on several types of watches, vintage or otherwise.

Here are some photos:










And one of my 18mm on the wrist:

Any questions, feel free to contact me via email.

Cheers,
Lou
