It feels very comfortable on the SD. Looks great. I'll get some pics tomorrow or when we get some sun (been raining hard here in Toronto) but I am sure you guys know what the SD looks like on a Nato. Put a minor bit of "character" on one of lugs while putting the strap on but no biggie, at least now I know how to put straps onto Rolexes without lug holes.

In any case for the $25 it costs to get one I recommend it to anyone that wants something a little different for their sports model rolex.

No thanks, Roger. I am not into Nato straps. And I certainly wouldn't replace the SS bracelet on my GMT with one. That would be downright sacreligous.

Ed, so you are not planning on trying this?

Seriously, the nato does look nice on the Rolex divers, enjoy it Roger!!

Like a NATO on some military watches,but prefer SS or leather strap on sports.

I agree completely.

Just one question: How does the smelly word "Skunk" come into all this?

How about Carbon straps? I just received my Hirsch Carbon strap with deployant today and I think this one looks the best with my SD.

I will get some pics as soon as we get some proper day light around here.

Clean pic and great strap. It looks really sharp on the SD for sure!!

JJ Irani · 30 July 2005, 02:42 PM

Probably the first non-SS bracelet I like on a sports watch.

Rockrolex · 30 July 2005, 10:38 PM

I have to agree with JJ. That's a good looking strap for that watch, Roger. And not to mention that's a great picture.
