Well it took me a while, but I finally got a shot of my Submariner on a Nato that I’m happy with.

Enjoy…

Cheers problmchylde,

Notice how my date mad is ever so slightly crooked.

edit: or at least it mags a little crooked.

fear · 17 February 2008, 08:21 PM

Cool!!

Perdu · 18 February 2008, 08:00 AM

Very nice Mr. Bond.

Letsgodiving · 18 February 2008, 08:45 AM

Looks good. My favourite strap.

Andad · 18 February 2008, 05:45 PM

Nice pix.
I will put my son's sub on a NATO strap until he can wear the bracelet.

My DD cyclops look just like your cyclops - slightly out of square. More noticible at certain angles. No problem really.

nsolga · 25 February 2008, 11:20 AM

Nato!

hotwheels396 · 25 February 2008, 12:50 PM

Yes NATO.

tandrup · 25 February 2008, 05:35 PM

Nice strap!

Goldwright · 25 February 2008, 06:30 PM

Guys, what about the date magnifier or cyclops if you like?

Are they sometimes glued on a little crooked? I think mine is slightly crooked or at least it gives that effect.

What do you think?

frostie · 26 February 2008, 01:29 AM

It looks good

dkpw · 4 March 2008, 04:35 AM

Lovely to see the Sub on a Nato strap. Very nice indeed.

timackerman · 4 March 2008, 07:41 AM

That looks great.

I think I may have to get myself a NATO and try it out.

They're really very comfortable. They also isolate the caseback from direct contact with your wrist; which is great when it's very hot.

I throw mine in with the wash after a couple of weeks to keep it fresh. They don't last forever though.

Funny you mentioned that. I just noticed that my mag is crooked too! I GOOGLE searched the topic and ended up back here!!!!! I guess there is no better resource. Anyone ever request a search feature by keyword for this forum?

I've noticed that on my Tudor chrono.

I wonder if the cyclops is installed crooked or if the crystal is turned slightly?
Anyway, the nato looks good.

Thanks Dan Pierce and Warrenmich...hey do you think we should start a crooked crystal club? (just kidding)

Actually Dan I think your theory makes sense. It takes the error away from the manufacturing of the crystal and gives it to the assembly of the watch. Pressing a crystal in, one tenth of a degree out, is much easier to understand and accept.

Very cool!

NATOs make a nice change,

Goldwright · 8 March 2008, 08:24 AM

Nice great white Mike.

Goldwright · 11 March 2008, 06:22 PM

Who chopped the bottom off my photo and why?

timackerman · 12 March 2008, 11:00 AM

Well I got myself a Bond NATO and a Black Rhino strap, and I am impressed.

I like the look and the comfort. I also notice it makes it harder to pick out that I am wearing a Rolex, and I like that

Hey timackerman,

Do you want to post us a picture of your Black Rhino?

wanasub · 12 March 2008, 03:01 PM

Great pic! I love the nato, getting one for my SD. I tried to but it on an olive drab strap but couldn't get the bracelet off. I'll have to take it to a shop tomorrow.

doc_colton · 13 March 2008, 03:54 AM

I was watching Goldfinger the other day in High Def and I paused the picture when it showed a close-up of his Rolex. Now in looking at the Nato strap there were thin red stripes on either side of the grey stripes. So from what I can see a real "Bond" Nato strap should be three toned. Anyone else notice this?

BuffaloRolex · 13 March 2008, 04:24 AM

The 16610 looks great on a NATO strap, IMHO.
