    I'm going for J Seaton, but the triangle in the middle is weird. You would think as an artist he or she would be legible otherwise why bother?

    38mm Hamilton Khaki Auto would be my recommendation. Looks good with a decent spec, and very hard to beat in this price range. Can be had new for around your budget.

    There are 'better ' NATOs (CWC and Timefactors) but there is something about OEM Pheonix straps that I much prefer. Could be the webbing, the thinness, the tighter weave, the hardware, the fact that...
