Imo they look very nice on the nato straps as they really accentuate the lug horns. cool

I've bought 4 straps from here, very good quality for the price and quick delivery.

I'm not a big fan, for me one of the best things about a Sub is the bracelet, it just cheapens the whole watch on a Nato. Sorry.

Why have you a sock on your hand?

Be careful to protect the rear of the watch, Nato's can cause wear, stick a bit of platic between the case and strap.

I have to agree with you on that one, don't like the 'bond-wannabe' look at all.
They are nasty bits of nylon that gets grubby & sweaty all too quickly from experience
Hey, but each to their own
This is much better IMO

That Comex Submariner looks like a fake to me, do you know where the pic came from?

I think it's one of the worst things about the Sub, it's a rattly, crappy old bracelet, the modern glidelock one is vastly superior. And to be blunt, the glidelock appears to be heavily 'influence' by the Seiko MarineMaster bracelet.

That nato strap seems to be in fashion on PH.

It does not go with a Sub at all in my eyes.

A watch is up to you, but sticking to my normal metal strap!

Good luck.

It's quite popular in the watch world which is reflected on PH, I guess. Military ideas seem to be popular in the watch world in general.
