The most difficult size and style of authentic Swiss signed Tropic dive bands to find for Subs, Sea-Dwellers, GMT-Master, etc. The same band the Rolex Authorized Distributor would have put on a Rolex sports watch as an original accessory of that period if the buyer asked for a dive band. These bands take a 16mm size buckle if you have a signed one to substitute. With the premium distinct large Tropic buckle shown signed Acier on back.
Classic basket-weave perforated Tropic. This band is sized to fit many wrists. Length measures a generous 8 1/8 inches long, with the pieces placed end to end (120mm/85mm), not counting the buckle. The sizing holes for the tang run all the way down the middle, so this band will fit many sizes.
At the longest, with the strap pieces together and the tang in the last hole, the strap is 7 1/2 inches long and you can size it all the way down to just 5 inches closed. Band is 5mm thick where it meets the watch and 2.6mm thick at the tail end. Nice pliable, soft rubber.
The price is $275 each. Supply is very limited.
Plus shipping/tracking costs of $4.99 in the United States. International buyers pay $24.99 for Registered international shipping or $49.99 for EMS Express international.
Paypal to [email protected] 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 [email protected] if you need additional information or visit www.Squinky.com
I have many references selling vintage bands for the past 15 years. Thanks - Bill Mahoney
