BluShark Nato Straps

Hello gang,
I decided to buy a BlueShark Nato after member Cryten turned me on to them.
My Tudor Black Bay will be arriving this coming week and I wanted an awesome Nato for it.
Here is the youtube review between them and Crown & Buckle.
Feel free to subscribe :)

Glad you like the strap, you'll love the BBN even more. They're a great combination.

Cool review. Blushark (joe) sells some great straps. But you are comparing a nato to a Zulu. Two different straps totally in design. Not mention the one from Blushark is a premium seatbelt material strap. So not an even match.

Just a quick note, the extra nylon on the nato is not extra security. If you lose a spring bar on a nato or Zulu they will both stay on your wrist even without that nylon. The extra nylon on the nato is rumored to be what pilots used to hang their watch from a hook next to their bed.

Cool SKX mod.

Thank you 007. I've been thinking very hard about trying a NATO and this thread pushed me over the edge. Well maybe it pushed me to the edge and blusharks buy two get one free sale + 10% off first purchase actually pushed me over

Don't be limited by "first", I've used that discount code more than once and will continue to do so until they stop me

Very cool!
Thank you for the info.
It was a bit more of a casual review, but nonetheless I did miss those points.
And thanks for the kind words on the Seiko.
My Black Bay just came tonight and is now on the blushark Nato.
If you subscribed, you will be seeing my full Black Bay review soon :)
