Nato Straps

[Gazoak]

I've always fancied a nato strap for my 16710 and went for this one from Sniper Bay on Amazon. What do you think? I think it works really well.

Here's one showing the strap in more detail.

It's too narrow for your lug width and is in danger of pulling a springbar loose. Looks like it's 18mm instead of 20mm.

Looks great! I got my black and grey 007 nato strap from sniper bay for my omega Seamaster, Great company. (Yours is slightly narrow though)

Thanks. I'll bear that in mind.

I love Nato straps. I've discovered them lately after I got my Tudor GMT. next thing I know I find myself with a dozen.
They change completely the look, feel and wearability of the watch. Also loved the ease of swapping those straps that is as cool and easy on the Apple Watch.
Your GMT will look good on Nato but it looks like your strap is a bit narrow?!, you got the wrong size for it I guess. I prefer the strap to fill the gap between lugs. It also helps balancing the watch much better.

I do like a NATO on that reference

Tell that to James Bond that his Nato is too narrow!

Sorry, but James needed the reminder too

I like NATO straps as an option but the strap shown is busy with the colors and as noted does not fit.

Famously too narrow...only 16mm.

My personal opinion - the 16710 looks best on the oyster bracelet (I'm biased).

There are a few watches that just look best as is, and the 16710 is one of them. I've never been able to put a NATO or leather strap on it because it looks perfect as is.

Don’t make the same mistake James did. Get a 20mm NATO for that awesome piece.
