Trying out the Nato thing

Love this watch, but sometimes I just don't like the TT bracelet. Thought I would give it a different look

Nato straps give the watch a new fresh look and feel very comfortable. Nice congrats!

I'm not sold on nylon straps. I guess living in the humid South causes the straps to get smelly.

Great pic showing the military and sand/khaki combo.

Is one of my favorite's for the Sub, the sand NATO.
Perfect for summer, poolside.

I'm a NATO fan. I like it. How about next you try a red/blue NATO.

Good form.

A honey brown Nato should also look good on that beauty.

Not bad at all. Tones things down a bit when not feeling the TT bracelet.

Got to agree, would like to use a NATO from time-to-time but not practical.

I'm sorry but I just don't like nato straps on a rolex. I think the bracelet looks so much better.

Much more comfortable on the golf course than a bracelet
