Strap for Diver Quartz GMT White / Rubber

The lug width of the Formex Diver 2100.3.2012.930 is 22mm. This measurement represents the internal distance between the spring bars. Verifying this specification before purchasing an aftermarket strap is essential to ensure compatibility and correct installation.

For the Formex Diver 2100.3.2012.930, we recommend alligator leather in vegetable-tanned finishes in dark brown or black tones, alternatively vulcanised rubber with fine grain texture in dark grey. These materials emphasise the tool-watch character of the case without competing chromatically. A robust NATO strap represents the practical alternative for daily wear.

First remove the spring bars using a spring bar tool (small fork-shaped implement). Locate the horizontal pins inside the case: push towards the centre to release the old strap. Insert the new 22mm strap aligning the holes and reposition the spring bars with inverse movement, ensuring they lock firmly into place.

Yes, any strap with a 22mm lug width is compatible with the Formex Diver 2100.3.2012.930. Ensure the strap thickness does not exceed 4.5–5mm to prevent friction on the case. High-quality artisanal leather, NATO and rubber straps guarantee superior longevity and aesthetics compared to generic solutions.

An alligator strap in vegetable-tanned leather, with regular use and proper maintenance, lasts 3–5 years before requiring replacement. Factors such as humidity, sun exposure and perspiration accelerate ageing. Alligator develops a natural patina over time that enhances vintage character. Periodic replacement is recommended to maintain hygiene and structural integrity.
