Trusted by Explorers Since 2012

Built for airflow, comfort, and long days in motion, the 1973 Naval-Marine Fabric Strap has been re-engineered specifically for the ZULUDIVER OCTOPOD strap system. This two-piece configuration brings the performance fabric you know into a more versatile, modular setup that works seamlessly with the OCTOPOD strap system. 

Made from high-quality polyester yarn using advanced core-spun weaving technology creating three-dimensional texture with groove-like stripes. These channels actively move moisture away from the skin, boosting airflow and keeping your wrist dry and comfortable in heat, humidity, or high-output activity. 

Each strap section is ultrasonically cut at the ends, sealing the fabric to significantly reduce fraying over time. The tail end is finished with a tight whip stitch for added reinforcement where wear is highest, ensuring long-term durability without sacrificing comfort. 

The two-piece design not only delivers a more tailored fit but also improves compatibility with smartwatches and sensor-equipped case backs, making it a great option for modern tool watches and outdoor-ready smartwatches alike. (Apple Watch adapters are required for OCTOPOD use.) 

From sweaty training sessions to sun-soaked days on deck, this strap is all about breathable performance with heritage-inspired style. 

Key Features 

✅ Designed specifically for the ZULUDIVER OctoPod buckle system 
✅ Two-piece construction for a balanced, tailored fit
✅ High-quality polyester yarn for strength and durability
✅ Advanced core-spun weave with textured, 3D finish
✅ Groove-like stripes improve airflow and moisture management
✅ Flexible, soft, and quick-drying for all-day comfort
✅ Ultrasonically cut edges & holes to minimise fraying
✅ Reinforced whip-stitched tail end for long-term wear
✅ Smartwatch compatible (with adapters) 

Perfect for:

Adventurers, sailors, fitness-focused users, and OCTOPOD owners looking for a breathable, quick-drying fabric strap that stays comfortable in heat and movement — including smartwatch users who need clear sensor contact and reliable everyday performance. 

Just a heads-up: this listing is for the strap only. The OCTOPOD buckleis not included and must be purchased separately to complete the system. 

Specifications

Strap Length

The length of a watch strap is an important consideration to ensure that it fits comfortably around your wrist. For our range typically the long strap length is around 120-130mm, and the short strap length is around 70-80mm and designed to fit average wrist sizes.

260mm
Strap Material

When selecting a replacement watch strap, here are some factors when considering the material: comfort, style, durability, water resistance, skin sensitivity, suitability for daily use, exercise and adaptability to different weather conditions.
Nylon
Strap Style OCTOPOD
Strap Thickness

The watch strap thickness refers to the measurement of the strap's height or thickness. It is the distance between the top surface (the side facing away from your wrist) and the bottom surface (the side in contact with your wrist) of the strap. The thickness of a watch strap is an important factor to consider as it can affect the overall comfort, aesthetics, and compatibility of the watch with your wrist.
