Starbucks on nato
Im thinking about adding a nato strap to wear my Starbucks on was wondering if anyone here has done the same? Im thinking a dark brown nato would look best.

What size Starbucks? Might be ok on Venti...not sure about Grande. Be careful not to poke holes too deep. Coffee is hot!

I considered it for a while but ultimately decided against it. I don't think it would wear nearly as well on a nato as a five digit would. IMO, nato straps clash with the shinier ceramic sports models (especially when the bezel isn't black). I think nato works much better with vintage models, but that's just me.

I dont think NATO straps were meant for paper/plastic cups but you do you.

If you must do it, get one with a very good quality buckle, as that will be the only thing between your now top-heavy watch and the floor.

Great photos there .. my honest opinion is leave it on the SS bracelet it's on. I love mine and this has one of the best bracelets Rolex make IMO.
Cermit or Starbucks .. Have considered trading mine for a Hulk .. but each time someone posts a picture I'm reluctant to trade.

Nothing comes close to how good the Oyster bracelet is on the LV.

It’s probably the best bracelet Rolex has ever made.

I have tried my Rolex watches on NATO's/Leather/Rubber straps over the years and always very rapidly come back to the OEM Bracelets. Rolex makes one of the best, if not the best, bracelets in the market. Fit, finish and utility are great. I have other watches that get the full NATO/leather/rubber treatment and I just leave my Rolex watches alone.
