BARTON WATCH BANDS Ballistic Nylon NATO® Style Straps

At BARTON Watch Bands, we obsess over designing quality products that meet the highest standards for fashion, function, and fit. Based in the heart of Austin, Texas, BARTON was founded in the wake of years of frustration with poorly designed, dysfunctional, and low-quality watch bands.

Our NYLON Military Style straps are a must-have for any watch enthusiast! Crafted from ballistic nylon, these straps are waterproof, washable, and ready for any occasion. Our Military Style straps are available in two lengths: the 'standard' length (10") generally fits wrists from 5" to 7 1/2" in circumference and is available in widths of 18mm, 20mm, and 22mm; the 'long' version (11") generally fits wrists from 6" to 8 1/2" and is available in 20mm, 22mm, and 24mm widths. Those with wrists under 7" typically prefer the 'standard' length band, while those with wrists over 7 1/4" typically prefer the 'long' band.

To determine the proper width for your watch, check the underside of your current band to see if the width is marked, use a metric ruler to measure the width where the current band attaches to the watch head, or search online for the specs of your watch make/model. If your watch has an odd lug width of 19mm, 21mm, or 23mm, select the strap that is one mm wider, as the material should squeeze in nicely.

These bands are compatible with any traditional watch that uses standard 18mm, 20mm, 22mm, or 24mm spring bars. To attach the strap, first, remove the original band and reinsert the spring bars into the watch head (replacement spring bars are sold separately if needed). Then, simply feed the strap between the spring bar and watch casing, behind the watch head, and up through the other spring bar. Run the free end through the leather ring on the short strap to secure the watch head. There's no need to remove the spring bars (pins) to swap between different colors.

If the band is longer than desired, you can fold the free end neatly back into the keeper loop or cut it to the desired length. If trimmed, expose the cut end to a match or lighter flame to avoid fraying.

In addition to our NYLON Military Style straps, we offer a variety of other high-quality watch band options, including Leather Military Style, Sailcloth Quick Release, Elite Silicone Quick Release, Canvas Quick Release, and Soft Silicone Quick Release. Each band is crafted with the same attention to detail and commitment to innovation, customer satisfaction, and community engagement that is the foundation of the BARTON brand.

Regardless of your style or watch size, BARTON has a watch band that will fit your needs and complement your timepiece, making it the perfect accessory for any occasion.
