In response to many who have asked, we developed a new version of our Glomar Explorer Hook & Loop Strap with black PVD stainless steel hardware. If you appreciate the Glomar Explorer but have been waiting for a perfect match for your PVD or DLC black watches, this is the answer.


Modeled off the traditional hook-and-loop dive watch strap, the Glomar Explorer - PVD/Black is a premium single-pass adjustable adventure strap for those who use their watches as tools. 


We set out to create a premium hook-and-loop watch strap, something that many consider an oxymoron. The strap name is derived from USNS Hughes Glomar Explorer, a deep-sea drillship platform that was used by the CIA to recover a Soviet submarine K-129 in the Pacific Ocean in 1974.

For a comfortable fit, we developed an ultra-thin custom matte weave nylon construction, a custom 316L stainless steel engraved buckle, and a snug strap keeper to ensure the watch remains secure on your wrist. 


Currently available only in our Standard Length (see below for sizing information), the Glomar Explorer - PVD/Black is available in solid OD Green or Black. 


Glomar Explorer Standard: Ideal for wrist sizes between 6.5 - 8 inches (16.5 - 20 centimeters)


* Sizing can vary depending on the watch and how tightly you wear the strap. The 22mm Glomar Explorer typically wears shorter than the 20mm version because of the longer lug-to-lug lengths often found on watches with 22mm lugs. *

 

* Watch, coins, and other items are NOT included.

* If international shipping is required, all customs, handling, and import fees will be paid by the customer.
