I thought those were already available?

Syed117 · 28 July 2017, 02:59 AM

These have been available for a while.

Priced very high (cognac leather was around $300), but they are definitely very well made and probably the best natos I've ever seen.

They've been around for a while. Nice, but too expensive at $170.

Are they 5 times better than Blu shark, or 10 times better than a standard Nato?

I certainly don't think so.

It is still cheaper than an OEM Tudor fabric strap, and Omega is meant to be slightly higher in the hierarchy than Tudor.

$170 for a NATO Strap. Come on. lol.

Are you suggesting that if Patek bought out a Nato strap it should cost $1500 to maintain their place in the hierarchy?

I think most would agree Tudor is also guilty of price gouging, but that still doesn't make it right. I have a Tudor strap, but it came with the watch. I wouldn't pay Tudor's prices either. If I recall correctly the Tudor strap doesn't even come with the hardware, you have to buy that separately.

I own a couple Omega NATO straps which have a thin layer of leather on the inside sitting against the wrist. I personally find them to be of a much higher quality and comfort than the aftermarket options I have come across. Are they worth the price? I think that's an individual decision. For me, they certainly are.

Seriously, buy a $25 Toxic NATO Shiznit. Super high quality and way more comfortable than every average nylon NATO.

Have you seen the price of an AP strap?
