EULIT Kristall Perlon Watch Strap - Black
German-made ultra-fine weave Perlon strap with stainless steel ladder buckle.
The Kristall features the finest braid in EULIT’s Perlon collection. The tightly woven pattern keeps the strap thin and flexible while maintaining the lightweight feel associated with Perlon. Air moves easily through the weave, helping the strap stay comfortable in warm conditions. Because the buckle pin passes between the fibers rather than through fixed holes, the strap can be adjusted to nearly any position for a precise fit.
Material & feel
Perlon is a synthetic fiber known for its strength, lightweight feel, and resistance to moisture. EULIT has produced woven Perlon straps in Germany for decades and is widely recognized as one of the leading manufacturers of the material. The Kristall features an especially fine braided pattern that provides flexibility while maintaining durability.
EULIT finishes its Perlon straps with a surface sealing treatment that helps protect against perspiration and everyday soiling. The strap is fitted with a stainless steel ladder buckle.

Fit guidance
Perlon’s woven construction allows the buckle pin to engage anywhere along the strap for precise sizing across a wide range of wrist sizes. Because the buckle can be repositioned along the weave, fit is determined more by wrist size than by fixed holes. The single-pass layout maintains a thin profile while helping keep the watch secured if a spring bar fails.

The kristall strap is a pretty fine weave and quite thin, but still visible and with much more presence than cheap "perlon" straps. The material does feel more "synthetic" than the cheap "perlon" straps, but after further wear it is much better quality, and feels like nothing on the wrist. The buckle prog/tongue is a bit flimsy, but other than that, this is the best perlon strap I've used. Came with good quality spring bars too!
I wanted to replace a worn out two-piece strap with a one-piece single pass type but it had to be thin enough to fit through very tight spacing between the spring bars and hooded lugs of one of my sport watches. Already a fan of various Eulit Perlon straps from HFWB, I remembered the Kristall; thin enough to remove easily for cleaning, yet durable and infinitely adjustable for a comfortable fit. Perfect in every way!
Got this for my Max Bill. It's perfect for every day. So lightweight. You forget it's there. Perfect match for this watch.
Like the title says, this strap is thin, cool, waterproof, washable, infinitely adjustable and comfortable.
On top of all that... it's got great vintage looks too!
Got this to replace the NATO that came with my Lum-tec Solar Marine. It was a nice strap, but it was too long and bulky for everyday. This 20mm EULIT Perlon Kristall is comfortable and lightweight, and fits my small wrist. The watch didn't have much space between the spring bars and case, so the thickness of this strap this was perfect. Super fast shipping all the way across the country, too!
Put this strap on my Master Control Calendar to dress it down and it looks amazing! Arrived in a few days
Absolutely wonderful quality band. Adds a touch of class that natos simply don't have, making it suited for office and weekend wear.
On a side note, when I ordered this band I selected the cheapest possible shipping option thinking I should receive the band in a week or so. It arrived in two days. Awesome customer service!
This perlon strap is so thin and light, I really enjoy it on my Casio f91 after wearing it for a week. There is only one small issue of the prong favoring one side of the buckle so that most of the time it doesn't pierce the middle of the strap the first time I put it on. Oh let me also mention the staff was very quick and helpful in answering my questions!
The blue Kristall perlon strap is light and comfortable. It is woven with thin strands of grey to give the overall hue a dusty blue color, which I find quite fetching.
A great blue perlon. Has a dark blue color somewhere between navy and cobalt. Has the superior sturdiness, comfort and substantial feel of all Eulit perlons. See photos of it on my vintage Raketa Cooernicus.
This EULIT strap is winning on seiko 5s
Great products , fast shipping and more nice customer service 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I’ll defiantly be getting more of these straps in different colors. They’re so much slimmer than a NATO and you can always get it to fit to the perfect size. They’re suppose to be waterproof also but I have yet to try it out. To be honest I don’t like NATO and was iffy on trying these out but don’t knock it till you try it.
Extraordinarily lightweight, infinitely adjustable, tough. Also adds just a little bit of interesting texture to sterile watches (e.g., pilot/field watches). Don't buy a fake Perlon strap. This is the real deal, and worth the money.
I've been wearing this watchband 24/7 for the past 6 months, finally scrubbed it today with some Dawn and a toothbrush. I haven't worn a watch continuously like this ever in my life, and I'm over 50. I suppose the lightweight Misfit Shine 2 "time piece" plays a fair part in the overall comfort but this Eulit band is definitely the most comfortable watchband I've ever used. I do a bunch of carpentry, mechanical work, farming, et cetera, so the band has been put through the wringer and it is holding up great.
Excellent perlon woven nylon band for tropical or hot weather wear. This model is fitted to the buckle in an adjustable fashion so you can vary the length, and also change the length so from week to week you're not using the same spot to put the buckle's tongue through.
How to reshape the band after wear? I soak it in tepid water or warm water for 10-20 minutes, then massage it back into shape, and let air dry. The buckle is lightweight, and appears stamped, but is also ... lightweight, adding to this strap's very easy-to-wear profile. You'll hardly know it's there. Suitable for wear in the water, like other woven nylon straps, but this one will dry out much quicker. (I recommend a fresh water soak after salt wate or chlorinated water exposure.)
Good quality. After trying several other "perlon" watch bands, I have found Eulit to be the best quality. I highly recommend Eulit for anyone who wants the best in braided nylon bands for a wristwatch.
Like the title says - I love this strap. It's super lightweight, comfortable, soft and pliable without feeling like I washed one shirt with a gallon of softener. It's super easy to find the perfect spot to poke the pin in for your perfect fit. Really just wish this came in a larger width so I could use it for other watches :/
I was shown these originally by a friend of a friend. Was into vintage watches. Ran this strap on a few of their personal watches. I was interested enough to track one down. This supplier has not let me down. Not rare but not a lot of places sell them, and the Eulit websites are kind of a joke. The fit and finishing is excellent. The are light and breathable, and pretty tough as well. Wish they had the full range of color options. That said not even the maker has that anymore. All that said they are awesome. I recommend the single pass Baltic or kristal.
When my old Eulit Kristall watch band finally wore out, I could not find a replacement on-line. Undoubtedly due to supply chain issues. Now I'm delighted that Holben's has it available again. It's the best.
this is by far my favorite watch strap. strong, comfortable, waterproof
I change between watches so I don't have to buy a bunch of straps. easy to put on, easy to take off
I only wish they made a 19mm version as well, and slightly longer version
