Steel Nautilus on strap
This is what happens when you get bored at home. I put my 3712a on a strap. Will not answer questions on how, except want to know if it looks good :)

I think it looks great!

You did a much better job than Lange w their recent strap version of the Odysseus...
Still a Nautilus on a strap though... Don't get rid of the bracelet just yet! |

Just my opinion but a Naut on a strap is not a naut. Bracelet or nada for Me

Very Nice!
Please send some additional pictures when you put on a RubberB or other rubber strap. |

Nice work. Similar look to the 5712g.
My personal preference is the Nautilus on bracelet though. |

I still prefer it on a bracelet but I hated that you can't wear it on a strap at all - I literally have to spend at least $40-$50k on either the 5712R, the 5712G, or the 5726A to get a similar look - feels a bit absurd. No brand should control this and I am super glad I can do both. Thinking of getting some rubber and strap options :)

I am on a list for a Nautilus but really like the flexibility my Aquanaut gives me between a bracelet and rubber strap. I would miss that with a Nautilus. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Looks quite good, but I hope your straps have the metal insert like a genuine nautilus strap. Otherwise may not be secure.

Looks nice. Still love the bracelet but that’s my bias.

Have been looking at this as well. Great look if you want to use your SS for a more formal look with a nice special tanning gator; or rubber if you want to protect you bracelet for more sporty

I don't like it at all, but our opinion doesn't really matter. Wear in good health!

If your just on the list then seems like you won’t have to worry about that issue for a while! Just kidding

Why is it so complicated, all you did was take a 5712g and swap out the dial for the 5712/1a dial
