Wouldn't bother. It's a "beater", presumably.

Oh, right. Does she not have any kind of sentimental connection with it then?

More for me I think! I lost my watch not long after I met her and she gave it to me! I ended up buying her a new watch for christmas which was a bit more lady like!

Fair enough. The Nato's a good match for the watch, anyway.

Thanks to everyone for their advice on getting a new strap for my Tag Monza (the leather one has fallen apart). As promised here is a picture of my wrist. I really must learn how to take photos - sorry.

I've also got a black strap (came with a plastic EMAS), some regimentally looking one and a James Bond (from time factors), and this which was £5.99 off ebay.

Much prefer this strap to the croc leather that the watch came with. Think I may be a convert....

Looks good on that strap!

Thanks, and to the other comments too.

Had another NATO arrive in the post this morning. That's five in five days -- this must stop!

If it isn't watches, it's straps.

It's an illness, I tell you.

I bet you have a strap that needs a watch to go with it

So far, I haven't bought a watch to suit a strap. Or have I and just forgotten? Certainly, I have more straps than watches.

It's an illness, did I tell you?

so which strap would you choose for this watch?

currently it's got an olive green Nato on it which doesn't really suit it. It's about as cheap a watch as you could have, but its got sentimental value, so I keep it as my 'dirty' watch

If they don't work then I'll buy one off you to help you cut your losses.

Colour matching doesn't really bother me.

Ask Hoofy.
