Key Features
- Customizable Fit – The strap measures 75mm on each side (total 150mm) and can be trimmed to match your exact wrist size. This cut-to-fit design ensures a snug, personalized fit for wrists of various dimensions, eliminating excess bulk and improving comfort during extended wear.
- Precise Sizing – With a lug width of 22mm that tapers to 19mm at the buckle end, the band aligns perfectly with the mounting points of compatible Mido watches. This exact fit prevents shifting or loosening and ensures a clean, factory-like appearance once installed.
- Dual-Color Design – The black and blue color scheme creates a dynamic contrast that complements the Ocean Star’s sporty aesthetic. The two-tone styling adds visual depth while maintaining a cohesive, modern look suitable for both casual and active settings.
- Folding Slider Buckle – Unlike traditional pin buckles, the folding slider mechanism allows for smooth, incremental adjustments. This feature is especially helpful during physical activity or in fluctuating temperatures when wrist size may change slightly, ensuring a consistently secure and comfortable fit.
- Included Installation Tools – A complimentary set of tools is provided with every purchase, enabling you to remove your existing strap and install the new one at home. No additional equipment or professional help is required, making the replacement process quick and hassle-free.
- Durable Rubber Construction – The 4–5mm thickness strikes an ideal balance between flexibility and strength. The rubber material resists water, sweat, and daily wear, while remaining soft against the skin. It’s also easy to clean and quick-drying, ideal for swimmers, divers, or outdoor enthusiasts.
