Just ordered one on Amazon. Too bad it is not Prime eligible. Will have to wait a week or so for delivery

I personally prefer it does not fold over, definitely buying one.

Just measured a bit. On the BB, you'd be ok. The tip of the strap would not extend above the case of the watch

Is this suitable for an 8 inch wrist?

dysondiver · 29 October 2015, 05:10 AM

great look

TheGanzman · 29 October 2015, 05:18 AM

Not to hijack this thread, but just to offer another (full custom) option; to wit: yellowdogstraps in the UK will make you ANY strap you want - Zulu, NATO, RAF - in ANY length/configuration. Yeah, it's gonna cost a few scheckels more, and you'll wait alittle longer, but the quality of his rubber is outstanding, as is the quality of his stainless steel keepers. I have a 20mm and a 22mm Zulu from him, both of which are fantastic!

Gerry62 · 29 October 2015, 05:33 AM

Nice!

Thanks. I was close to pulling the trigger, because I really like the looks of it, and think it would go well with my SMP 300M.

ZeKe · 29 October 2015, 08:07 AM

Wow, looks great.

It's close. Tell you what. I was going to order another one, so get it and see how it works. If it doesn't fit right let me know and Ill buy it from you. Teamwork!

ncstate1201 · 29 October 2015, 09:44 AM

Nice rubber nato...I have thought about this a few times but have not pulled the trigger, glad to hear some positive feedback first....just curious are these dust catchers?

It's a good idea, but I've never been a fan of straps that are close to being maxed out. It's why I always wear XL leather straps, or custom leather.

Silicone is a dust magnet. BC rubber is not.

BC rubber straps have such a lovely scent to them =P

kenzembo1 · 30 October 2015, 12:30 AM

I'd really love to pick one of these up for my 114060 Sub, but the only size I can find is 22mm.

If someone can direct me to where I can purchase a 20mm version it would be very much appreciated!

Fleetlord · 30 October 2015, 07:24 AM

Looks great...but pass because of that awful vanilla odor..

wantonebad · 30 October 2015, 07:36 AM

Bought one for my MKII very excited!!

utc66 · 30 October 2015, 09:20 AM

They have tons of straps on Amazon, I love that they have a version with the Morse code on it - too bad Morse code is dead, or we could chat about watches in morse code over shortwave!

I too like the rubber NATO, but would like to see a side shot to see how tall it makes the watch sit on the wrist.

Here you go....doesn't really add any height whatsoever.

Damn, it seems that the 20mm version is our if stock everywhere.

wantonebad · 3 November 2015, 08:59 AM

My main issue with NATOs is they stay wet for hours, I love this new rubber strap!

Dan Pierce · 3 November 2015, 09:56 AM

Looks great, Marc!

Bet it's comfortable too.

Might have to order one myself.

SALTY · 3 November 2015, 10:26 AM

Very nicely done and good match for the watch. Functional.

Mauiguy · 3 November 2015, 10:29 AM

I've got one of these straps. They are really nice.

chris975d · 3 November 2015, 10:31 AM

I picked one of these up from Watch Gecko. Love this strap. It's my favorite NATO, next to the OEM Omega fabric straps. I installed it on my Omega 300MC. The hardware is really top quality.

incontrol · 3 November 2015, 10:54 AM

I have two BC straps and really like them. Great quality at a great price! I will definitely look into getting one or two of these.

fitzs · 4 November 2015, 09:39 PM

These need to be about 2 inches longer and I'd be on board. I like the folded look at the end.

Got one on order for my THC.
