    28/37 is the width of the tyre
    606/642 is the diameter of the wheel.

    700c tyres fit a 622 wheel.

    I think this is what you are looking for.
    http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=18906
    Note this is available with presta or shrader valve.

    But to be sure, what size is the tyre ?

    OK, the schrader version of the tube I recommended above will suit then.

    The confusion arises because there are 4 different tyre size markings.
    So in your case.
    ISO 35-622 = Metric 700-35c = American 28x1.35
