I totally agree. I now have two watches on a Nato and like the idea of switching the strap up easily…but struggling to find anything I would rather wear than the original strap.
It was what I was looking to buy as my first nice watch. The one on display put me off as it had some shiny marks on the bracelet, which I assumed were not easy to resolve myself if happened over normal use.
I have since found out that you can use an eraser to bring back the same finish.
Nice strap where did you purchase it? I have the Bamford Aquaracer and would like to try it on a nato with titanium buckle. I like that one as the lines on the strap are like the Time & Tide ones. Thanks
@bpsmith & @eagleeyes78 Hi guys - this is from AliExpress - steel keepers but the brushed look matches the titainium finish nicely. Super cheap but really nice feeling, thin and comfortable.
