Alex, the founder of British strapmaker Haveston, is fueled by a passion for horology and history. Throughout Haveston's varied and growing portfolio, its designs are defined by a focus on the honest utilitarian character of vintage military industrial equipment used by service personnel for aviation, space exploration, combat and other purposes.

If Haveston's commitment to continuous refinement and innovation is any indication, we can expect much more from the company -- with one underlying idea. According to Alex: "At the end of the day, it always comes back to that service-driven purpose, regardless of whether that is to your community, family, or the world. Having a little reminder of that on your wrist is quite special."

Haveston's Forecastle canvas strap, in medium grey with navy blue stitching, is inspired by naval hull and aircraft color tones. It features a comfortable, low-profile A2 single pass strap configuration, and a floating keeper for easy and secure stowing of the period-appropriate chevron tail.

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 me shorten it?
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.

Ecellent

Great fit, excellent quality and easy to install. It did take some time to receive the band, but worth the wait.

Haveston Canvas Strap Fits and Looks Great

Received my latest acquisition of Haveston Canvas Series Forecastle Watch Strap. Changed the original to Haveston on my Timex Waterbury. The watch has black PVD coating that looks great with Havesron grey strap. Fits perfectly nice. Material is soft and durable. Thank you Holbens for great service and Haveston for a great product.

Forecastle Strap

Delivered incredibly fast!

Wanted to give my Khaki Field a new look and gave this strap a shot.

Feels great, looks great! Not much more to say!

Haveston canvas strap

Super cool tin case included with my strap. Very please with my Haveston Canvas Quarterdeck Strap. Goes great with my Casio Diver. Holben's super fast shipping. Awesome value.

Five stars all around (Haveston, canvas, Forecastlew

Can’t speak highly enough of Haveston, excellent straps and customer service. Love their canvas line in particular, my oldest is three years plus in and still looks great. Ever comfortable, and never had an issue with fraying, if that’s a concern. Just be warned it is difficult to draw the line at one, I am now into double figures.

Holbens easily my favorite place to shop for straps, just as with team Haveston, team Holbens is a class act. Again, excellent customer service, value and strap selection. Total peace of mind shopping here. Thank you.

FINALLY

I have sooo many watch straps and this is by far the best! The quality is in a different league than anything else you can buy. The color is true to description. The canvas is comfortable and manly looking.

Great strap

Great Quality strap I think it looks very good on my Kaki Hamilton. And also fits and feels really good on my 7 1/2 inch wrist!!

Excellent on a Camper

I'm using the 18mm M-1944C strap on my stainless steel Timex Camper. The fixed lug bars made for a bit of a tight fit, but some gentle pulling got it in place. The strap is the perfect compliment to this simple field watch. Not to mention it's super comfortable on my 6.5" wrist.

Durable and thick

This is a beefy canvas strap that feels like it will last a really long time. The holes are reinforced and the strap has a nice matte texture so that it's not slippery on your wrist. Great quality and nice complement to any tool watch.

Best Military Canvas I have seen

I ordered this strap wanting a nice olive drab, military style strap. For $29, I was somewhat skeptical of it being justified. But I was pleasantly surprised upon receipt and wearing it for 1 day. Initially, I thought it would be stiff and uncomfortable, but it loosened up quickly and is very comfortable to wear and I have worn on a daily basis for over a month now. The hardware is well made and substantial, and the stitching is very well done and has held up through sweat, stretching, and dirt. I could not be happier with it, and I do feel it justifies it's price. God bless!
