markeym3 2 Posted August 23, 2013 Hi Guys , Seiko seem to be the thing at the moment although I know many members on here have them and love them. So I decided to hit the "bay" and see what there is .. Came up with this from the 70's .. works really well and wears so good ,,it did have a rubber strap but was very stiff then had it on a leather and now I have just put a vintage bond nato ( ok ok cheesey ) and happy days .. I have been using it for work so there maybe a little overspray on it but cleans up a treat ,, seems to keep good time too , maybe +3 seconds/day . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShovelnTC 31 Posted August 24, 2013 So why is the Bond Nato cheesy??? The usual reason for popularity is that lots of people like something, so is it cheezy to like something just because lots of others like it too? I love the Bond nato's and will probably get another one for a second watch. Love the Seiko and the strap, Enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
