FS: NOS 20mm Tropic Sport Swiss Black Big Hole Rubber Straps

I am once again offering some increasingly hard to find vintage Tropic Sport Black Big Hole 20mm rubber straps in NOS condition… brand new and unworn, signed ‘Tropic Sport 20mm’ and ‘Swiss Made’ ‘23320’… direct to me from Switzerland, these are the last of my supplier’s 20mm Black Tropic inventory… 115mm x 75mm with original unsigned chromed buckle… I will also include a modern 16mm SS buckle… soft, supple and pliable and extremely comfortable to wear… they will look great on any of your 20mm vintage and modern divers, chronographs and mil-watches…

some history about Tropic rubber straps from the great dive-watch resource scubawatch.org... 

“TROPIC brand watch straps were the original waterproof strap back in the '60s & '70s, and were original equipment on many dive watches including the Rolex Submariner. If you specified your Submariner without the bracelet, this is the strap you got. Rolex service centers were also supplied with Tropic straps. Tropics were produced in Switzerland during the '60s and '70s, and later manufactured in China using the original molds. The originals are signed ‘TROPIC’ and marked ‘SWISS MADE’.”

$75 each, US shipping and PayPal included… for outside of US, please add $5 to cover international shipping costs…

thanks for looking, 

Peter
