The Trident MN strap from Erika’s Originals features a deep, clean blue that feels a bit more modern on the wrist. With a contrasting centerline, that blue base becomes more expressive and either color can pick up dial accents or hand colors easily. The added contrast gives the strap presence without making it feel loud or overdone.
This MN strap is designed exclusively for watches with fixed lugs and is not compatible with standard spring bars. It uses a detachable slider that allows the strap to be threaded through the lugs first and secured afterward.
Designed and made in Europe.
Erika’s Originals MN straps are made from premium European elastic nylon woven with spandex for controlled stretch, long-term durability, and moisture regulation. The material is dyed in Switzerland for color stability and consistent performance during extended wear.
The strap is constructed as a single-pass, rounded-edge, non-fraying endless weave with two finished sides. Traditional weaving techniques, executed on modern looms, create a dense yet flexible structure that maintains its shape over time while evenly supporting heavier watches without pressure points.
The elastic construction maintains consistent resistance over time, preserving comfort and structure without the need for punched holes.
All materials are latex-free and hypoallergenic.
Thickness: approx. 2.0mm
Stitching: White
Sheen: Matte
Buckle: Available in brushed 316L stainless steel or matte black DLC 316L stainless steel (see options)

The strap is designed to be worn snug. A closer fit allows the elastic to function as intended, keeping the watch stable while remaining comfortable throughout the day. The integrated sliding clasp enables continuous microadjustment as wrist size changes.
Length & wrist size:
If your wrist measurement falls near the overlap between sizes, either length may work depending on your preferred tension. A shorter length will feel firmer and more secure, while a longer length offers a slightly more relaxed fit.
22mm strap width fits:
Water resistant, suitable for brief exposure but not intended for swimming or prolonged contact with water.
Hand wash in warm water using a small amount of mild detergent if needed. Rinse thoroughly to remove any residue and allow the strap to air dry completely at room temperature before wearing. Avoid machine washing, high heat, or tumble drying.
Erika’s Originals was founded by Erika op den Kelder, a Dutch watch strap maker known for her modern reinterpretation of the historic Marine Nationale elastic strap. The original Marine Nationale design was worn by French naval divers in the 1970s and valued for its secure fit and adaptability in demanding conditions.
Today, Erika’s Originals MN straps are handcrafted by Erika and her team in Valencia, Spain. Each strap reflects a focus on thoughtful design, durable materials, and precise construction, balancing functional heritage with contemporary manufacturing standards.
