I don't know what you're meaning is, can you give an example? post a photo.
The IDF doesn't have it's own brand of watches'and velcro is just the stuff used to connect to strips of material, not the actual strap.
A lot of soldiers lately us G-shock with cloth+velcro straps instead of plastic strap, but there's nothing special about it. There is no IDF brand of watches

:cantbeli: watch cover, of course :lol:
We don't use velcro, either you use a store bought cover made by plenty of companies in israel from leather,corderoy,elastic material etc' or you make your own using anything you can gather, you can even use a dark sweat band.
I have a neoporen one (sp?) which is nice. and unlike leather doesn't get wet and slippery. http://shop.lametayel.com/lametayel/images/items/580056b.jpg
Here (http://shop.lametayel.com/cgi-bin/lametayel/search.html?mv_searchtype=sql&mv_coordinate=yes&mv_search_field=active&mv_searchspec=1&mv_search_field=category&mv_searchspec=&mv_search_field=%3Acompany%2Ctitle%2Ccomment%2Csku&mv_searchspec=%EB%E9%F1%E5%E9+%F9%F2%E5%EF&mv_substring_match=1&mv_begin_string=1) you have a link to shop that carry most types, but it's in hebrew and I don't think they ship abroad.At least you can see the types
You can find leather covers here, but it's really more gifts and for foriegners then actual IDF soldiers.
