Get it fast: Our in-stock Erika's Originals MN straps ship immediately from Washington State!
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.
Shown here in green with a yellow centerline, the Vintage model is made from rare, original, new old stock Marine Nationale elastic webbing, likely from 1960s decommissioned parachutes. It's a slightly softer material than other MN straps, with tons of vintage character. Lines are 100% hand stitched using premium European yarns.

Erika's mn bands are becoming my favorite watch band while wearing my 38mm hamilton khaki field mechanical. There is just enough stretch for comfort without sacraficing the bands ability to securly keep your watch in place. I now own 3 of these.
Very comfortable watch band. I enjoy it so much that i ordered another within a week of recieving this one.
The packaging was elegant and practical. Install was a breeze with the charming included instructions. Adjustability and sizing was simple. Never feels too tight or too loose. I’ve already gotten compliments on it while wearing my watch at work. The color scheme works perfectly with my Synchron Poseidon Ice Diver. Both Holben’s and Erika’s Originals have gained a customer. Very happy with my purchase!
