Forstner's stainless steel expandable mesh watch band (called the "Komfit") was one of the only watch bracelets sanctioned by NASA for use on manned space missions. It was worn by astronauts throughout the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs, and even made it to the surface of the moon. Now, after a long hiatus during which time only vintage models could be sourced at high prices, we have reissued and improved this classic watch strap.

  • LUG WIDTH: Straight bar "universal" fit end piece with horned ends. End pieces have spring loaded construction (can compress when pressed). Fits watches with 19mm, 20mm, 21mm, or 22mm lugs. End piece fits spring bars up to 1.8mm thick.
  • BRACELET WIDTH: 18 mm at the central mesh portion.
  • LENGTH: The Komfit band is offered in two lengths: "Original" and "Regular. 
  • The "Original" reflects the length once worn by astronauts over their space suits, and as a result is equivalent to a "long" size. The "Original" works best on wrists at least 7 inches (18 cm) in circumference and will fit wrists up to approximately 10 inches (25.5 cm) in circumference. 
  • The "Regular" was made to fit small to medium wrists, and works best on wrists between 5.75 inches (14.5 cm) and about 7 inches (18 cm) in circumference. For a wrist at 7 inches in circumference, either size will work, but we think the "Original" provides the best look.
  • NOTES: Spring Bars are not included as this bracelet fits universal width
