"Q" Hook Strap™ - Bond Series - Limited Edition Elastic Watch Band - NMDQB003

“The Name’s Comfort, Supreme Comfort.” Introducing: The Limited Edition “Q” Hook Strap™ from the Bond Series lineup developed in cooperation with Q Branch of Her Majesty’s Secret Service. These dynamic watch bands are made from the same military-grade Twill Woven Elastic Webbing that many of you have come to love, now with a stunning, task-oriented graphical twist, as well as Plated Zinc Alloy “G-Hook” hardware.

Bond Series P/N NMDQB003 AKA: "Q Hook"

Yet another break through in modern espionage technology from the chaps at Q Branch; Built from a proprietary weave of expanding fibers, this strap has been developed to perform in both clandestine and full tactical scenarios. It has been tested to endure a 1500lb load* capacity (or 7 kilonewtons), and can expand to a length of 300m for any 'off the cuff' rappelling.

Stealth Black was selected as the primary color, both for its naturally covert nature and to give way to its high contrast white technical artwork that’s been thoughtfully placed into its fibers, all thanks to a cutting-edge printing process developed and handled right here in-house.

Flat Black Hardware was chosen to enhance the clandestine theme and to evoke the tactical feel you’d come to expect from such a high performance piece of kit.

Matching Black Stitching was also chosen to further the militaristic theme of concealment, efficiency and uniformity.

(*Note: Not Actually Load Bearing. Do not attempt to use as climbing device.)

  • Estimated Time To Ship: 1 - 2 Months

The Long Version:

- Quality Hardware: All hardware is custom-made, plated Zinc Alloy, forged for the purpose of providing strength and resistance to the elements while on the wrist.

- Like Sweatpants For Your Wrist: The Elastic used for these straps was also specially developed specifically for the task of being worn all day on the wrist. This material has an exceptionally tight yet breathable, soft Twill Weave of polyester and rubber, with reinforced edges that prevents unraveling and shape change when stretched. All in all, it makes for the most comfortable watch wearing experience you’ll ever have.

- Tailored Fit: No matter what size wrist you have, you’ll find no greater amount of adjustability and comfort than you will with the Hook Strap. Now offered in all wrist sizes from 5” - 9”, choose the strap length that best suits the circumference of your wrist. Further adjustment can be handled via the built-in strap slider for that perfect, glove-like fitment. (If you’re in between sizes, go with the larger size. Custom sizing is always welcome, too! Just leave a comment with your order.)

- Ultra Flexible: Probably the most overlooked factor related to wearing watches is that throughout any given day, the human wrist will expand and contract dozens of times when exposed to different temperatures and activities. Leather, steel, rubber and silicone all suffer in some way to these changes, but not Elastic. It will adapt and conform to your every move, both voluntary and involuntary, without you ever noticing.

- Shock Absorbing: The spring bars of your watch are the only thing keeping your precious timepiece attached to your wrist. So why not treat them right? Metal and leather bracelets, for example, are often worn too tight. And when you flex your wrist or bump your watch into something, this puts severe strain upon them. Elastic however, acts as the perfect shock absorber due to its magnificent ability to stretch.

- Through Thick & Thin: Thanks to its synthetic nature, this is a strap that’s right at home anywhere from the office to your next trip aboard the ISS. And when you get back, it’s ready for the pool, or next to it manning the barbecue. This Elastic is incredibly durable, completely water-resistant, and super easy to wash if needed! If that’s not enough, this stuff even meets the mil-spec durability requirements set by the U.S. Armed Forces. No biggie.

- Make It Yours: Choose from 4 watch widths and 17 wrist sizes!

**Watch not included. Sorry.

Proudly made by hand right here in California, USA.
