imo, the GV is too dressy to go on a Nato strap

i still prefer my GV to be on a PCL oyster bracelet

Can't believe I haven't chimed in yet.

Being colorblind green is not my forte but I say why not? It's completely reversible, creates an additional new look, and a nice way to match.

Looks nice on a NATO !

I agree the nato strap suits the semi retro face design....but i think the green strap may detract/clash with the fabulous green crystal.I think it may look better/great with the plain black/crystal version.

But i applaud your experimentation.

I dig the green, gives it a nice vintage feel.

Nicko · 1 January 2010, 12:22 AM

A great look! I like the green on black look. Very military looking.

iberjan · 1 January 2010, 02:33 AM

I like it. The green is probably best since it picks up the color in the crystal but the gray is cool too.

Where did you get the strap(s) and what size are they?

kyle L · 1 January 2010, 03:17 AM

I like the look!

PacNW · 1 January 2010, 03:41 AM

Agree on the green, very nice

¡Hola! I was thinking of adding a NATO band to my Milgauss but I dont know what size/dimensions I would need to do this. I was thinking of using this band. I kind of has a James Bond look which I covet. please let me know if I should go bigger say 22mm b/c the one that I have included a link to is 20mm. Please let me know ASAP, b/c I just bought my Milgauss (Also, my first Rolex [Graduation present to myself]) and I done want to scratch up the SS band.

¡Gracias!

20mm is the size between the lugs on the Milgauss!

drockadam · 25 August 2011, 10:31 AM

Cool!

Dr.Atom · 26 August 2011, 12:34 PM

¡Hola! Btw thank you Sleddog for helping me out.
So as I wait for my recent NATO strap to come in the mail. I was wondering if anyone had any other recommendations for some different straps or ect.that I could add on to my watch to make it a little bit more unique. I noticed these NATO straps while I was doing research for the current strap that I selected (Link included at the bottom of this post) but I feel €50.00=$72.00 is a lil steep for a Nylon band. So my real question is, is there a quintessential NATO watch brand that is the gold standard or did I just waste $16.00 on a band that is gonna tear apart and scratch my milgauss. If there is please could someone give me some tips as to color combinations. Keep in mind that I have a Milgauss GV.

¡Gracias!

Pretty fly, in my opinion. At least your thinking outside the box. Something you don't see every day with a Rolex owner.

Dr.Atom · 31 August 2011, 07:43 AM

So my NATO strap finally came the other day. Here are some pics tell me what ya think.

Tchau

Cool combo, looks good.

SWIMPRUF · 3 September 2011, 09:41 PM

Looks more good in green.

JT3 · 6 September 2011, 01:54 PM

Interesting, I dig the black band one. Fun mod though.

JJ's comments are hilarious.

nikita.ry · 7 September 2011, 01:08 AM

I prefer this particular watch on a bracelet, however the greed strap does look good!
