A true watch enthusiast knows that the hobby does not stop at the timepiece itself. The watch on your wrist is only half the story. The other half is how you care for it, how you customize it, and how you display it when it is off your wrist. Changing a strap can completely resurrect a watch you haven’t worn in months, while a dedicated storage system turns a loose collection into a proud, curated display.
Today, we are thrilled to look closer at Ø ELEMENT, a brand that has officially joined the Chrono Central family to completely redefine premium horological accessories for the Australian market.
From vulcanized rubber straps to luxury desk layout gear, Ø ELEMENT approaches accessory design with the exact same military-grade precision and luxury execution that you expect from high-end watchmakers.
The Ultimate Strap Upgrade: Vulcanized FKM and Premium NATOs
If you are still wearing your favorite automatic dive watch on a standard factory strap, you are missing out on true comfort. Ø ELEMENT has engineered a world-class lineup of replacement straps built specifically to handle the elements.
Their vulcanized FKM rubber straps are a revelation for sports and dive watch owners. Unlike cheap silicone bands that lint up, attract dust, and split over time, FKM is a high-density fluoroelastomer. It is entirely resistant to saltwater, chemical degradation, and intense UV rays. It is incredibly supple on the wrist, contours instantly to your bone structure, and provides a heavy-duty, curved-end fit that leaves zero awkward gaps between the strap and your watch case.
For a more rugged, military-inspired look, the Ø ELEMENT premium seatbelt NATO straps offer unparalleled security. Woven with high-tensile nylon that mimics the smooth, ultra-strong texture of luxury car seatbelts, these straps feature beautifully brushed 316L stainless steel hardware. They ensure that even if a spring bar fails during an outdoor adventure, your timepiece remains safely locked to your wrist.
Luxury on the Desk: Premium Leather Valet Trays
Your watches shouldn’t just be tossed onto a hard bedside table or a wooden chest of drawers at the end of a long day. Metal-on-wood contact leads to inevitable scratches on the polished case flanks and casebacks.
The Ø ELEMENT Premium Leather Valet Trays act as the ultimate designated landing pad for your daily carry. Crafted from thick, heavily grained scratch-resistant leather, these trays feature reinforced corner rivets that snap together in seconds to form a secure, protective walled enclosure.
Lined with a plush, anti-static micro-suede interior, the valet tray safely houses your watch, wedding band, car keys, and pocket knife in one organized, visually stunning space. It elevates your desk setup or nightstand instantly, ensuring your timepieces rest on a surface that matches their quality.
