Does a Nato strap for the Explorer?
 
Hello Rolexforums,

I just swapped the bracelet on my explorer for a nato...here are some pics and I need your feedback. Does the nato look work at all with the explorer?

Or I...
(a) have ruined a perfectly good watch and should swap the bracelet back immediately,
(b) may have something going but need to source for a different nato or,
(c) have committed a travesty and should be sent to Rolex hell where the entire team who designed the 42mm explorer is burning right now?

(B) .....It should work well on a nato, it should look good on a plain black and or gray/black bond nato.

Not really liking the olive nato combo. Just my .2 cents

I like the look. I concur that it would look good on a black NATO. Plus, it keeps with the theme of the watch.

Do YOU like it?

black leather nato would get my vote.

I think a NATO on the Explorer is a very cool, understated look.

I echo the sentiments that you should try a black or grey color instead. Although, I really like the olive too!
