The Rivet Bracelet
The Forstner Rivet Bracelet revives one of the most iconic bracelet styles in history--the uniform (i.e., non-tapering) three-link bracelet secured by rivets. Available with either solid or all-stretch links, Forstner's Rivet Bracelet is crafted in fully brushed stainless steel, and (as always) is made to be extremely comfortable for all-day wear.
The Beads of Rice
The beads of rice is one of those quintessential watch accessories that belongs in every collection--exuding a subtle elegance that transforms the look and feel of your watch. Forstner has released its own take on this classic design, blending the best of the old and the new (for example, using solid removable links instead of hollow links). Beautifully finished in alternating polished and brushed stainless steel, it'll look fantastic on virtually anything.

The Klip
The Forstner Klip brings back one of the most popular bands in Forstner's historic catalog. The present bonklip-style bracelet has an 18mm wide central portion, with alternating brushed and polished finishes on the rectangular "ladder" design, and a polished spring-loaded clasp. Made entirely of stainless steel, the band is light, breathable, and extremely comfortable, having the ability to be easily sized in approximately 3mm increments for the perfect fit.
The Flat Link
Forstner created its own take on the classic flat link bracelet--one of the most beautifully designed, and comfortable, bracelets ever offered for the Speedmaster. We kept the beauty and charm of the original but improved it for fit, convenience, and wearability. Details in the link!
Press & Reviews
The Komfit Band
The Komfit/JB band was made to be easily adjustable, flexible, and capable of fitting just about anyone. Strapped to the wrist one moment, it could be resized in seconds, or, in the case of emergency, removed with the flick of a finger. As a result, NASA astronauts were permitted to wear the bracelet, and they routinely did so during the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo periods. Like the watch with which it was often worn (the Omega Speedmaster), the Komfit/JB band quickly became synonymous with the NASA space programs.
