Loop-less HydroFlex FKM rubber strap with sailcloth-embossed upper for deployant clasps.
Stainless steel Loop-Less deployant clasp · Black Loop-Less deployant clasp
Building on the hybrid sailcloth and rubber construction of the HydroFlex, Artem's Loop-Less HydroFlex adapts the design for use with deployant clasps. The sailcloth-textured surface keeps the familiar look of Artem’s sport straps while the rubber base provides the performance expected from FKM rubber.
Removing the traditional buckle and strap tail creates a continuous strap profile on the wrist and a bracelet-like wearing experience once the strap is sized. Pair the Loop-Less strap with Artem's black or stainless steel Loop-Less deployant clasp or your OEM Omega clasp.
The strap uses Artem’s HydroFlex construction with a dual-stage vulcanized FKM rubber base and a synthetic upper embossed with a sailcloth pattern. FKM rubber is known for its resistance to heat, moisture, and daily wear, making it suitable for swimming, humid conditions, and regular use. The embossed upper provides the appearance of a textile while remaining easy to clean and resistant to water. The strap contains no animal-derived materials.
The Loop-Less design eliminates the traditional buckle and is intended for use with folding deployant clasps. Artem Loop-Less deployant clasps are available separately.

Once sized, the strap forms a continuous loop that allows the watch to slide over the wrist before closing the deployant clasp.
Because the strap does not use a buckle and tail, overall fit depends on choosing the correct strap length rather than relying on tail adjustment. A shorter length is often best for smaller wrists or those who prefer a compact fit, while regular length suits most wrist sizes and allows proper deployant alignment.
Length & wrist size:
If your wrist sits near the overlap between sizes, either length can work. A shorter strap reduces tail and positions the buckle more tightly, while a longer strap provides more room and tail.
Measurements exclude the buckle.

Water resistant, suitable for brief exposure but not intended for swimming or prolonged contact with water.
Rinse with lukewarm water and gently wipe with a soft cloth. Do not use soaps, chemicals, or cleaning agents, as they may damage the surface and accelerate wear. Allow the strap to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight.
