For NATO Watch Strap Aficionados/British Regimental G-10s
Came across this UK company that sells British regimental NATO watch straps and some of them are pretty unique in their design. The Fleet Air Arm and the Honorable Artillery Company patterns definitely stand out amongst the crowd of ordinary NATOs.
Curious. Do members of the UK armed forces actually wear these watch straps or are they purely ornamental? https://www.regimentalshop.com/colle...traps-g10-nato |

My old Regiment (Green Howards) is there but I have just never liked the Regimental colours, when wearing a tie, the only suit that it would go with was an NBC suit.

Those aren't issued to the UK military. The only ones are from Phoenix watch straps in Wales UK to military spec, Phoenix are the Nato G10 MOD supplier and issued to HM Forces here in the UK and have been doing so since 1978.
