I've an old Seiko Arctura which was the very first decent watch I bought myself, it's been gathering dust in a drawer for the last 10 years as the bracelet is broken and Seiko do not provide a replacement.

Can I run it with a NATO strap? I suspect the answer is no but I'm hoping the more knowledgable amongst you can advise.

It seems a shame to lose use of the watch due to a minor fault.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't from the looks of that. Can you get the bracelet off to have a better look?

A Nato would definitely not fit that shoulder design unfortunately.

Would this fit? It’s not cheap but it might make it wearable again:
