The New Nylon Cordura Strap
HI,
I just saw, and may be it is not new, a Nylon Cordura strap on www.jaeger-lecoultre.com . I like the strap a lot and I am sure it is a god summer strap. Will that fit the Polaris and has someone a photo of it on a watch, or possibly even on a polaris 68...?
Cheers,
Chris

Good question
I'd also like to know if it would also work on the EWC. It does look like a good strap, and it is my understanding that all of the Navy Seal divers are delivered with this strap. respo
I've seen it on the EWC
it looks great. I especially like the COMPRESSOR text on the strap. "Casey", the EWC/nylon strap owner has posted pics of this combo here before. click here
Is this the same strap as the ones on the Navy Seals?
Thanks PeaceFrog. I thought I had seen these pics before. I appreciate your reminding me. I am not sure Casey's strap is the same as the Navy Seals cordura strap, but no matter, I like them both. Best, respo

Why not?
BUT: Be sure that the distance between lugs is 22 mm, and if it is not the case, ask JLC if they can make one for you in 22 mm. Then, this strap is beautiful, but it looks quite modern. Would it work with the classic look of the Polaris? Best, Nicolas
The best is to bring your Pola 68 with you to a JLC AD
And to check that the combo works... You'll see. Keep us updated, please! Best, Nicolas
I think this strap is very modern
and it possibly will not go well with the polaris. But the quality and the comfort of this strap is something one has to experience in real. If I was the lucky owner of a tribute to polaris my wish would be a thick mesh strap (like the omega mesk).
EWC and Cordura strap
As long as the strap is 22mm at the lugs it should work. I use the straight pins from the rubber strap when using my Cordura strap. I would NOT use the pins that come with the JLC Dive watches, as they are spring bars. I too like the look of the new strap...
the same???
is that strap the one on http://www.jaeger-lecoultre.com/dive/ ? it is two colourd and look more retro?
Yep, Casey, but the EWC has a more modern look.
So, this Combo is great on the EWC, but I'm not so sure on the POlaris, whic has a more classic look... Best, Nicolas
I just tried....
mine on and I'm really liking the combo and the feel on my wrist....
Looks awesome on the diver, Pog
Yes,. i think I want to order one for my EWC. I need to get the information so I order the right one, as I think there is another nylon strap for the divers as well. Great photos. Thanks. respo
another photo of a nylon cordura in action
again, the the "navy seals" two tone cordura, but the master compressor balck with white stitches. (on adive down to 100ft, in the south of France, recently)...
