Speedmaster NATO Strap examples
Hi all,
Having bought a Moonwatch very recently I thought it was about time I tried some nato straps! The one it comes with is alright but I don’t like the angular corners on the metal parts as it’s a bit uncomfortable. So I hopped onto Amazon and bought 8 straps for less than £30! And I’m very happy with the quality, they aren’t made of the softest material of anything like that but are exactly what you’d expect. So i thought I’d share some pics so if anyone out there is wondering what their Speedmaster might look like with different colour NATO’s then here’s a quick reference for you all. Any questions let me know Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Really diverse and colorful set of straps. Love throwing mine on everything from a leather band to a NATO. Looks great!

I first bought the 32$, and then the 39$. The difference is the shine and overall silky feel of the higher priced variant. It just feels and looks better but, on photos you can’t tell.

My 3592.50 is on a stealth Bond NATO by cincystrapworks. Amazing quality for the price.

I would like to correct my previous post. Oddly enough, the highest priced blushark is by far the worst nato strap I have ever seen or handled. The grey/silver is dull and the overall finish is unremarkable. So, it’s their 32$ strap that rules, DO NOT buy the $39 strap. For a reason that isn’t clear, the quality descends as the price increases...
