StrapHabitQuick Release Tropical Style FKM Rubber Watch Strap Band 18mm, 19mm, 20mm, 21mm, 22mm

I've purchased quite a few rubber dive straps over the years, including several "official" Tropic straps and the one I recieved from Strap Habit is on par or better than the best of them.Even for my small wrist (6.5") the comfort is exceptional and the length isn't a bother given the soft nature of the material, allowing the floating end keeper to sit high on my wrist without even noticing. The end of the long side does sit high, but the keeper keeps it flat so it doesn't hang out or get in the way of long sleeves or jackets. For my 6.5" wrist, the long end sits about 3/4inch from the lugs, which will likely bother a lot of folks, but for me it really isn't an issue for appearance, comfort or usability.I figured I would need to cut the strap but the classic, longer-length dive strap is true to the design you are looking for in a tropic strap and will come in handy if you ever need to wear the watch over a thicker wetsuit or coat.My only (minor) complaint would be that the included springbars don't fit snugly within the strap itself so there is some play. I don't think you would need to worry about security, as they are good bars, but a snugger fit would bring peace of mind. I'm going to replace them with the bars of my stock strap for a snug fit.All in all, 9/10 for the strap overall.10/10 for value, given the quality, comfort and style of the strap at this price point.Update 5/24: I've recieved my 2nd strap and I love it for my trusty Speedy. It's finally time to retire my black NATO strap as this black tropic is comfortable and looks great.

Very good tropic strap. Love the red color. Great choice

The overall quality of this surprised me. I own the "name brand" Tropic strap that typically sells for close to $100, and I've also tried several other brands that emulate the classic Tropic style, and this is actually better than most of them. It actually feels better on the wrist than the name brand. The FKM rubber is thick and dense, yet soft and pliable. It isn't silicone rubber, so it won't pick up dust and doesn't get sticky during the day. The basket weave pattern is perfect, and the ridged edging is exactly like the classic Tropic strap from the 1960s. Nothing is cheap here in terms of construction of the strap, and it fits well, in addition to being comfortable. For $29 you're getting something premium. My only two complaints are that it is a bit long (I wish it was the typical 120/80 size instead of the regular diver size of 130/78) and I wish the buckle was more robust. As I said before, this is a thick strap, so it probably needs a more heavy duty buckling system. But the buckle it comes with does the job good enough. Close to 5 stars, but not quite.

I really wanted a vintage-style tropical strap for my Orient Kamasu. I bought a nice looking one made with plasticky TPU rubber from Cheapest Nato Straps for about $10 shipped and it was extremely uncomfortable. The rubber was very rigid and even after reshaping it with boiling water, it was still too uncomfortable to wear. The main problem was the hardness of the material; the waffled underside dug into my skin, making it unbearable to wear.The StrapHabit tropic strap was recommended to me, so I decided to take a chance, despite it costing 3x as much as the CNS tropic strap, and I am very glad that I did. The FKM rubber is very supple and soft, and its waffle pattern is totally not irritating against my wrist, and it didn't even require reshaping in boiling water.As others have mentioned, it is somewhat longer than usual. It's fine on my 6.5" wrist, but if your wrist is on the smaller side, you might not like the way the end sticks out.All in all, I am very pleased with the quality, fit and comfort.

The camo looks great and the FKM rubber is exactly what I expected, comfortable, lightweight, pliable and it was easy to attach to the watch. Looking to get other colors as well.

Nice bracelet.

This didn't work out for me. The strap is great quality and feels pretty good, however the length is a bit too long, leaving a prominent tail even when the clasp hits somewhere at the midpoint of the strap.

The strap is very easy to put on and takeoff. It’s a great fit and looks fantastic and it’s very versatile. It can be paired with any number of watches. The strap is also very durable and doesn’t feel like cheap rubber. For the price the strap also represents great value - so much so I bought three I bought a green blue and the black… see for yourself.
