AQUABORNE AUSTRALIA - MODERN STRAPS, MILITARY DNA.

In the beginning, there was Waterborne—Australia’s issued dive strap that endured saltwater, sand, and sweat without compromise.

We took that no-nonsense DNA and rebuilt it for the modern operator: refined pull-through classics, engineered elastic systems, and modular architectures that lock in place and disappear on the wrist.

Handcrafted in Australia, field-tested in real conditions. Every Aquaborne balances heritage toughness with everyday resilience—so your watch stays secure, whether you’re diving, training, or just living.

Built with purpose. Worn for Performance.
