Alex, the founder of British strapmaker Haveston, is fueled by a passion for horology and history. Throughout Haveston's varied and growing portfolio, its designs are defined by a focus on the honest utilitarian character of vintage military industrial equipment used by service personnel for aviation, space exploration, combat and other purposes.

If Haveston's commitment to continuous refinement and innovation is any indication, we can expect much more from the company -- with one underlying idea. According to Alex: "At the end of the day, it always comes back to that service-driven purpose, regardless of whether that is to your community, family, or the world. Having a little reminder of that on your wrist is quite special."

Haveston's limited edition, dual-sided P-42C camo canvas strap, with its "jungle" green-toned surface pattern reversing to sand tones on the opposite side, is based on the WWII Frog Skin camouflage pattern used for P-42 HBT combat uniforms in the Pacific Theater. Its reversible disruptive design incorporates a discreet repeating “H” mark to represent the USMC EGA markings on the original HBT uniforms. The unique, bold statement pattern complements a variety of field and naval watches, particularly those with monotone dials and “vintage” warm lume designs. It features a comfortable, low-profile A2 single pass strap configuration, and a floating keeper for easy and secure stowing of the period-appropriate chevron tail.

Material:

  • 1.8mm double-layer cotton canvas.
  • Stitch-reinforced holes.
  • Equipped with a double-sided, bead-blasted buckle that easily serves both strap surfaces.

Sizing:

  • Available in 20mm and 22mm.
  • 270mm (10-5/8") long, excluding buckle.
  • Fits wrists 145mm - 225mm (6" - 8-1/2").

Includes:

  • One free pair of strong, seamless double-flange stainless steel spring bars.
Help with sizing
  • Inspect the underside of your current watch strap for width indicators.
  • Measure the space between your watch lugs (in millimeters) using a metric ruler.
  • Research the specifications of your watch model on the manufacturer's website.

Ecellent

Great fit, excellent quality and easy to install. It did take some time to receive the band, but worth the wait.

Haveston Canvas Strap Fits and Looks Great

Received my latest acquisition of Haveston Canvas Series Forecastle Watch Strap. Changed the original to Haveston on my Timex Waterbury. The watch has black PVD coating that looks great with Havesron grey strap. Fits perfectly nice. Material is soft and durable. Thank you Holbens for great service and Haveston for a great product.

Five stars all around (Haveston, canvas, Forecastlew

Can’t speak highly enough of Haveston, excellent straps and customer service. Love their canvas line in particular, my oldest is three years plus in and still looks great. Ever comfortable, and never had an issue with fraying, if that’s a concern. Just be warned it is difficult to draw the line at one, I am now into double figures.

Holbens easily my favorite place to shop for straps, just as with team Haveston, team Holbens is a class act. Again, excellent customer service, value and strap selection. Total peace of mind shopping here. Thank you.

FINALLY

I have sooo many watch straps and this is by far the best! The quality is in a different league than anything else you can buy. The color is true to description. The canvas is comfortable and manly looking.

Excellent on a Camper

I'm using the 18mm M-1944C strap on my stainless steel Timex Camper. The fixed lug bars made for a bit of a tight fit, but some gentle pulling got it in place. The strap is the perfect compliment to this simple field watch. Not to mention it's super comfortable on my 6.5" wrist.

Durable and thick

This is a beefy canvas strap that feels like it will last a really long time. The holes are reinforced and the strap has a nice matte texture so that it's not slippery on your wrist. Great quality and nice complement to any tool watch.

Best Military Canvas I have seen

I ordered this strap wanting a nice olive drab, military style strap. For $29, I was somewhat skeptical of it being justified. But I was pleasantly surprised upon receipt and wearing it for 1 day. Initially, I thought it would be stiff and uncomfortable, but it loosened up quickly and is very comfortable to wear and I have worn on a daily basis for over a month now. The hardware is well made and substantial, and the stitching is very well done and has held up through sweat, stretching, and dirt. I could not be happier with it, and I do feel it justifies it's price. God bless!
