That's a nice combo, especially with the blue FXD

I'm currently bogged down with other topics, but I'm wearing mine on a simple black NATO strap. The quality's no where near as good as the OEMs, but if I'm being honest, it's more comfortable. When I find something more exciting, i'll report back again

Looking for some better NATO options than the standard ones out there.
The MN looks really nice, what else should I look at that's an improvement on the original NATO? I seem to recall there was some brand that was a name or two names from Europe (possibly women's names?)
In general I am not a big strap person but NATOs are the exception.
I bought a Tudor .925 just because I wanted to pair it with NATOs and wanted to see how the patina would develop over time

Erika's MN straps are great due to comfort, custom sizing [with massive quick adjustment], and color coordination.

Bonetto Cinturini rubber nato straps are also very comfortable, can be used RAF style [keeper strap is removable], and you have a choice of polished or brushed hardware.
