Waffle-finish perforated 22mm Swiss Tropic dive band with straight ends. New Old Stock from the 1960s/70s. One of the most difficult size and styles of authentic Swiss signed Tropic dive bands to find. The same band many 22mm lug watches such as Breitling, Heuer and Omega models would have been fitted with originally if the buyer wanted a dive band on it. The buckle end is 18mm wide. If you would like a Heuer buckle on this vintage Tropic dive strap, I stock the 18mm vintage Heuer style buckles and can install one for $95 additional.
Fits many size wrists. Generous length band is 8 1/4 inches long (21cm) ends placed end to end, not counting the buckle. With the pieces closed at the buckle, the band adjusts from a closed length of 6 inches (15cm) to 7 5/8 inches (19.3cm). Metric measurements of the two pieces are 83/116mm. The band thickness is 5.5mm where it meets the watch and 2.7mm thick at the tail end.
Nice black rubber is soft and pliable, yet thick enough to carry the largest watch heads. Black 22mm Tropic signed band with the original distinct square Tropic steel buckle signed Acier on back. Brand new 1960s/70s dive watch band, discovered as old stock, never used.
I find these rare 22mm Tropic Swiss dive watch straps every few years to offer here; that's how scarce they are in the 22mm size in New Old Stock from the 1960s/70s. The ideal original vintage band for your vintage Heuer Monaco, Heuer Silverstone, Heuer Calculator, Breitling Navitimer, vintage Zenith chronograph watch or other large watch with 22mm lugs.
The price is $275 each. Supply is very limited.
Plus shipping/tracking costs of $4.99 in the United States. International buyers pay $19.99 for Registered international shipping or $39.99 for EMS Express international.
Paypal to billmahoney@aol.com or mail payments by check or money order accepted.
I also have many other 18mm, 19mm, 20mm styles and 22mm Tropic type bands with curved or straight ends. Email me at billmahoney@aol.com if you need additional information or visit the Tropic Rubber Straps section at www.Squinky.com
I have many references selling vintage bands for the past 15 years. Thanks - Bill Mahoney
