Nice! Newbie question. What kind of strap is that? NATO? Wouldn't fit a GMT?

Yes it'll fit a gmt as Long as you get the right lug width. Indeed it's a Nato strap.

Looks great on the NATO, I ordered a grey nato from crown and buckle for mine and the strap wouldn't thread between the case and the spring bar. Did u have any problem with yours. Natos from them have fit all my other Rolexs.

I did have a problem just looping the NATO thru the lug, it didn't work that way so I put the Installed the NATO then put the spring bars in.

How does your nato fit on your Sea-Dweller? I've found there doesn't seem to be enough room between the case and the spring bar for the nato strap to fit. And this is with my thinnest .063" strap - which fits without even a second thought to a 5513, 1675, and Omega Speedmaster.

I *can* force-fit a NATO to my 116600, but I can clearly see the spring bar bowing due to the interference between the NATO strap, case, and spring bar. There simply doesn't seem to be the room between the spring bar and the case - it didn't matter whether I install the spring bar first, or fit it to the case on after laying the strap down first. Any insight you can offer would be welcome!

Your watch and strap look great, and mine says hello!!

Mine fits great, but I did have to install the NATO first and install the spring bars after. Of course the NATO your using may be a different size then mine.

The spring bars can take a lot of pressure before they let go.

Try slightly thinner spring bars. 1.8mm. Makes a lot easier.
