Can't go wrong with a Dutch flag as NATO strap

Nice watch

Sorry about the late response. Unfortunately it looks as though the seller does not ship to Europe.

Has anyone tried the Timefactors 2 piece nylon strap with the Deployant?

http://www.timefactors.com/tfstraps.htm

Wondering what the fit is like.

Shame their site is temporarily closed. Thinking of ordering the grey or French flag version when they reopen.

Hello All,

I humbly and enthusiastically request acceptance to Nylon Nation.

I just got this 2-liner (from AFC1 ) and wore it on the original bracelet for about 45 minutes before allowing her to "slip into something a little more comfortable."
I wear this baby to work as a builder.
The simplicity of the dial and the strap are just perfect.

I have enjoyed everyone's photos and have gotten so many great ideas from this forum.

Thank you all.

Jon

I just received my GMT back from service and converted to nylon...but now Im worried about damage. Case rubbing, spring bar bending, voided warranty, and all the other horrid things that get mentioned here....

Am I worrying too much? I am really liking the new look.
