Ti-MNPara Strap 20mm - OG OD
-
Overview
During the 1960s, the French Navy combat divers saw a need to securely wear and adjust their dive watches, but did not find anything quite suitable for their needs available at that time. Repurposing elastic nylon strapping from military issue parachute rigging and forming some bits of metal hardware, came up with this (originally handmade) design. PDW built up from this baseline and used the best available nylon with Spandex (far more durable and resilient than generic elastics) strapping, 100% titanium in the rings and clasp for total corrosion resistance on land or under the sea, and 100% non-magnetic as to not interfere with the strap worn compasses such as our EWB-Compass Kit. With the proliferation of rare earth magnets being used in today's bags, wallets, key fobs, and other EDC items, we found that these magnets affected the typical stainless hardware as used in most other types of straps on the market. Not only are rare earth magnets harmful to the internal mechanics of a fine mechanical watch, the magnetized stainless steel hardware affected any compasses used as supporting accessories on a watch strap. Our Ti-MNPara Strap eliminated magnetic interference, offers superior performance, total corrosion resistance and durability in the field. -
ReviewsJSLOWEST COMPANY AROUND
These people are slow to ship and slow to process returns no matter what month of the year it is.
The products are great at least.
I buy from many different knife/edc companies and PDW just sucks in that department.
It would be nice to see them step it up.MPDW Marine Nationale StrapGreat match for my Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical.

KMy new favourite strapThe most comfortable watch strap I’ve tried to date! The quality is great and the Ti hardware matches my Damasko DS30 perfectly. The strap is secure and so comfortable I forget I have my watch on. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to a NATO.
APerfect watch bandThe color way is perfect for my work watch as my uniform is of green and yellow insignia. The elastic nature of the parachute strap allows me to be active without the watch moving on my wrist which increases comfort dramatically. I wear my watch significantly more now and the strap oozes quality on its fit and finish.
