Black and Gold

I have worn nylon straps for 50 years (primarily on a rectangular gold dress watch inherited from my grandfather).

This is a first go for my 27 year old 16013. I like it enough to purchase some additional colours.

Any suggestions?

NATO with real gold fittings?

Does anyone know if the above exists?
If so could you point me in the right direction?

They do, Dominic, I've seen them before. Unfortunately, I have no head where to source them, sorry. Might want to start a thread to see if other members can help.
Good luck!

I've bought many different Nato's from many different places. But I have to say, my favorite Nato's are Phoenix Nato's. They don't seem like they're worth the money at first, but the colors are so much nicer, they age so well, and just seem to feel tougher as they get older. Whereas a lot of the cheaper brand ones I've bought start to feel flimsy and the colors fade. I usually buy them from a gentlemen on Ebay (seller: mickie500), but recently found a seller of Phoenix straps on Amazon.

The passion of other Explorer owners on this board and the arrival of my Maratac NATO straps reversed the decision to sell my 16570, despite the anticipated lack of use in the upcoming few years.
