. Why on earth would you want to strap your breitling onto a Nato?? I dont get the whole nato fascination. I see the Rolex guys do it and IMO i think they are nuts.

I like NATO's but they only look right on certain watches.

What's the matter with you guys?

I think this looks great!! A NATO strap can add a tactical look.

Like I said, to me it all depends on the watch. A Seawolf looks great on a NATO, a Navi would look friggin retarded. I used to wear my PO on a NATO all the time but when I put my polished BB on one it took me about 3 seconds to realize that it looked horrible.

I'm sorry I have to address that, but it was just an experiment. :shock:

I wanted to see if the bezel popped a bit. It was easily removed, and the bezel is back to it's original look.

No, no and thrice I say NO :cry:

It looks like a Swiss Army watch I owned around 10 years ago (well somebody had to didn't they?). :wink:

Just to add,

I showed Mrs KMG and she said it looks like a watch you would put on when you're digging the garden over. She loved and still prefers the Swiss Army watch to those shown :wowzers

. In her words "why have a lovely watch and degrade it by sticking a piece of canvas on it?"

No offence meant by either of my inputs here - just saying it as it is :cheer:

+1

I really don't get it: how can you have one of the best straps available on the market and downgrade it to nato?
