Sam Howell 0 Posted June 26, 2016 Hello there, I have a few different variations of NATO straps & Perlon straps which I have fitted to my watches. Just wondered what people's opinions are on these, as they seem extremely popular all over the world! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lexidium 94 Posted June 26, 2016 I don't care much for Nato straps. If you have a very slim wrist like mine, they sick right out at the side and are far too bulky - particularly with a large watch. Leather or bracelet for a small wrist . . . . . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wolf359 1 Posted June 26, 2016 Spring/summer is nato time, fall/winter is bracelet time. I really like natos, they show a sign of individuality and creativity....Something the average sub owner is genuinely terrified of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really struggle with the NATO straps. The Perlon straps fit near on perfect! Spring/summer is nato time, fall/winter is bracelet time. I really like natos, they show a sign of individuality and creativity....Something the average sub owner is genuinely terrified of. Yeah, that is true. I like the side of being different; it's only ever on Instagram and on here where I see people changing straps on their Rolex's. Definitely a summer thing!

Mr_B 2,401 Posted June 26, 2016 I really like Nato straps on dive watches especially the sub, when I had mine on Nato people seemed to like them better on bracelet, but who really cares what other people think, if you like it wear it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have seen a very similar response. But then again it is down to what you like personally! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markeym3 2 Posted June 26, 2016 Lovin the nato straps and the Zulu straps .. such a wide selection of colours and materials it can give most watches a fresh look .. Great thread would like to see a few more examples. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chats 1 Posted June 26, 2016 nato/perlon/zulu is good for casual wear love it on the iwc. looks better on the non ceramic rolex tho in my opinion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leebob 0 Posted July 10, 2016 I like the NATO straps, I think most watches can pop with the right coloured strap, it dose feel like a summer option though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fashion 0 Posted August 2, 2016 I like them, but in my opinion a Submariner is made to always be on the bracelet. I don't really know why but whenever I see a Submariner on a strap it screams rep to me for some reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daywatch 4 Posted August 2, 2016 It´s a great Summer choice and extremely easy/fast to change if You have some watches prepared for it. I like the colours and in-built drop-protection:) Have some new supreme XLs on the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kleen™ 45 Posted August 7, 2016 I absolutely love NATOs - they are by far my preferred stap even on several of my gens, as the (quick) choice of style can downply it or really make it pop. And they're cheap as chips as well, so buying a couple of dozen to try out won't ruin anyone.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
