Strap for Diver Automatic Red / Rubber

The Formex Diver 2100.9.7074.960 is fitted with 22mm lugs. This lug width is standard across many 46mm dive watches and is compatible with a broad range of artisanal straps, from NATO styles to vegetable-tanned leather options.

The optimal choice depends on intended use: for diving and marine environments, vulcanised rubber ensures grip even over neoprene; for daily wear, a technical NATO balances functionality and chromatic versatility; for formal occasions, vegetable-tanned calf leather develops a noble patina whilst preserving the watch's tool-watch character.

Unscrew the spring bars through the holes in the lugs using a small Phillips screwdriver or dedicated lug removal tool. Once the original strap is removed, insert the new strap through the same holes and secure the spring bars by tightening gently without forcing.

Absolutely. The Formex Diver 2100.9.7074.960 accommodates any strap with 22mm lug width, whether alligator, shell cordovan, technical textile, or rubber. Compatibility is assured by the standardised lug holes.

A quality leather strap—particularly vegetable-tanned—typically lasts 3-5 years with intensive daily use. Exposure to chlorine, saltwater, and humidity shortens lifespan; we recommend drying the strap immediately after marine contact and applying specialist leather conditioners formulated for saltwater resistance.
