Inspired by the classic Marine Nationale watch strap (originally invented by French naval divers to pair with their military-issued Tudor MN watches) and widely regarded as one of the most comfortable all-season straps on the market today, Erika's Originals MN straps are expertly handcrafted by Erika and her team of skilled artisans in Valencia, Spain.

Each strap starts with superior European spandex elastic nylon, dyed to perfection in Switzerland for ultimate comfort and moisture regulation, and featuring a rounded-edge, non-fraying endless weave elastic (two perfect sides!). Woven to the highest specification using traditional techniques on state-of-the-art looms, this durable material maintains its perfect structure while supporting even the beefiest watches. Lines are 100% hand stitched using premium European yarns. Easily microadjust for a customized fit with the integrated sliding clasp. The 316 stainless steel buckle is water resistant in both ocean and pool, and for added peace of mind, all Erika's Originals MN straps are hypoallergenic and latex-free.

FAQ

Q: Do you sell watch bands for women?
A: We do! Many of our short-length straps are the perfect size for women.

Q: Can you suggest a strap that looks amazing with my watch?
A: Unfortunately, because the range is so vast (and personal taste is subjective), we cannot advise regarding aesthetic suitability for specific models and styles of watches.

Q: I have an Apple watch. Will any of your straps work for me?
A: Sure! Our handy Apple watch band adapters accommodate most 22mm straps.

Q: Are spring bars available?
A: Yes, for each strap that is not already integrated with quick-release spring bars, we include one free pair of strong, seamless double-flange stainless steel bars.

Q: What strap size do I need?
A: To determine your size, use a metric ruler to measure the internal distance (in millimeters) between the lugs of your watch.

Q: My Bonetto Cinturini deployant strap is too long. Can you help?
A: Of course! See our Bonetto Cinturini sizing guide for cutting instructions.

Q: Do you offer international shipping?
A: Yes! Visit our Shipping & Returns page for more information.

Q: May I return my purchase?
A: Holben's Fine Watch Bands accepts returns of unworn, undamaged merchandise for refund or exchange within thirty days of purchase. Learn more on our Shipping & Returns page.

Connery Strap 22mm

Connery band on a this Octopus watch looks great. Feels even better. Now this is a 23mm lug but the 22mm covers it. These are great straps and are very comfortable. They hold a watch big or small. A must for style and wearability!

Second Erika's from Holbens

This is the second Erika's I purchased from Holbens. I bought the denim/white for my Damasko DS30. Excellent quality.

Very good quality strap

I found this after reading several watch forums. At first, I thought it was a bit pricey, and almost went with the Uncle branded strap, but I like the clean appearance of this strap. Love the strap, only small issue is the clasp is hard to close. Maybe it will get easier as time goes by, or it breaks in. I put this on a 45-year old Seiko 6309 diver's watch that I recently got running. The strap seems a bit tight, but I think that is only when I am putting the watch on my wrist. High quality materials in this strap. Recommended.

Excellent quality. Looks great

So this is exactly what I wanted. The quality is exceptional. It’s hefty, not loose like so many other elastic bands like this I have gotten from other sources. Super happy

Comfort and style

This is my third (maybe fourth?) Erika’s Original strap. These straps are incredibly comfortable, and the variety of colors available make them perfect for dialing in the look of my favorite watches. I ordered the “original 2 tone” and it might be my favorite MN strap so far. Thankful that Erika’s provides a wide range of 18mm versions, and that Holben’s receives some of those options!
