The per diem here in Qatar is lousy, but when I get back to Tampa I may get that Porsche I wanted.

Bet that new GMT would look great with a Nato!

The Gold/SS GMT does look nice, but just tried on one of my friend's SS GMT and it fit very nice. The twinlock crown actually seemed to make the watch fit a little better than my Sub. The Gold does look nice!

I sincerely and honestly pray that you're joking!!

I mean a NATO on an SS Rolex I can just about tolerate....but why on God's good earth would anybody in their sane and proper mind want to descicrate that beautiful new GMT-II with some POS nylon crap?

I mean would you buy a brand new Lamborghini, then drive out of the showroom and go to the nearest garage and have those beautiful wheels replaced by some local rubbish?

Answer this question honestly and then ask yourself whether you'd want to put a NATO on that beauty!!

Cheers - JJ

Yep, seriously think a Nato for sport would look great on that TT GMT. Tone it down a bit for sport and add nice contrast, not too much bling bling. I think the NATO straps look pretty good with Rolex watches. I am all about function. It is all a matter of one's opinion.
