The Story

In 1973, the British Ministry of Defence (MoD) needed a watch strap for military personnel that could endure combat conditions. The goal was to create a strap that could withstand tropical humidity that often wreaked havoc on leather watch straps and prevent spring bar failures that caused watches to be lost or broken.

How We Improved the Design

We refined the original design, enhancing strength and durability with a sewn construction. We replaced chrome-plated brass with solid stainless steel hardware for resilience and longevity. The space between keepers was increased to fit larger watch cases. Additionally, we extended the strap length to 300mm to accommodate various wrist sizes and provide extra security by folding the strap tail back through the keepers.

Introducing the APEX Nylon Collection:

Apex Nylon Material:
The Apex is made from 100% polyester material, ensuring exceptional durability. It is long-lasting and environmentally friendly, reflecting our commitment to quality and sustainability.

Innovative Production Techniques:
Cutting-edge production techniques, including high-temperature and high-pressure dyeing, as well as filament twisting, to create the Apex nylon material. These methods result in vibrant, fade-resistant colours that maintain their brilliance over time.

Precision Weaving:
Advanced high-power shuttle looms, combined with premium yarn technology and special pattern threading techniques, produce a thick and dense ribbon. This ribbon boasts a luxurious feel, akin to pure cotton, offering a skin-friendly and warm sensation that sets the Apex nylon watch strap apart

Squeaker Beware
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Heart
Bought these for gifts. One dog was squeaking it constantly (beware your ears lol) and within about 15mins it no longer squeaked. It was a Bernedoodle so wasn’t destroying it, just happily making it squeak. It still works as a bouncy ball. But the squeaker definitely doesn’t last long depending on how much it’s used. Overall a cute concept providing plenty of entertainment. Definitely not a toy if you have an aggressive chewer unless monitoring play.

DOGS LOVE
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Heart
My dogs love it! I buy as gifts too as it’s always appreciated. Easy squeak and fun to bounce with all the sides. My dogs chew until they crack & still squeak for a bit. When eventually squeak stops my dogs still return to it. They seem to love just for the air sounds. I personally appreciates that more than the squeak but what do I know? I’m not a dog.6

Great, but they don't last.
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Heart
Our dog absolutely loves these things. However, they get punctured or form a crack on a seam with very little use. This time it only took a couple of hours of play. Once this happens, they no longer squeak. This may sound weird, but the heart shape seems worse for this defect.

Her favorite
Style: Tipsy Rosé
Our weimaraner Gracie loves her wine glass. Whenever it's empty she drops it in front of us to have it refilled. It's very durable and cute, it's easy to fill plus she has no trouble carrying it around. We'll be getting another so she doesn't have to continue to hide it from our other girl. It's quite obviously her favorite.
