FS: Go waterproof this summer 22mm blue or black Swiss Tropics

Relax during your activities this summer with an original vintage waterproof band on your Heuer Monaco or other fine 22mm lugs watch. Don't take a chance of ruining your special leather or Corfam rally band.

I'm offering two of the most difficult colors and styles of authentic Swiss signed Tropic rubber dive bands. Your choice of an extremely rare blue 22mm Swiss signed Tropic Sport that is just the right color for your Heuer Monaco 1133B or Heuer Calculator. Also the same band in black 22mm for your Heuer or other large 22mm lugs watch.

Both straps are rare New Old Stock (NOS) from the 1960s/70s. The same bands featured in some original Heuer and Breitling chronograph catalog listings. Can come with or without the Heuer buckles shown.

22MM BLUE TROPIC SPORT $425 WITH HEUER BUCKLE ($350 w/o buckle)

Nearly impossible band to find. Perfect for your Monaco. Length measures 7 1/2 inches long (19cm), with the pieces placed end to end, not counting the buckle. Metric measurements are 115/75. Ideal in that it takes the 16mm buckle size. Band is 4.7mm thick where it meets the watch and 2.5mm thick at the tail end. Nice pliable, soft rubber.

The color is just a shade lighter than my blue 22mm Heuer Corfam bands, shown in the last few pics for color comparison.






22MM BLACK TROPIC SPORT $350 WITH HEUER BUCKLE ($275 w/o buckle)

Popular black Tropic Sport works on any 22mm lugs Heuer. Original band for many Breitling Navitimer models and a classic strap for many 22mm lug watches. Length measures 7 1/2 inches long (19cm), with the pieces placed end to end, not counting the buckle. Metric measurements are 115/75. Also takes the 16mm buckle size. Band is 4.7mm thick where it meets the watch and 2.5mm thick at the tail end. Nice pliable, soft rubber.
