Watchgecko mn NATO

[ej86]

Liking the marine nationale strap pattern, but not wanting to fork out on what Silvermans and ericas originals are asking, I thought I'd try watchgecko's take on the style.



It's good quality for a NATO (as you'd hope for what they charge). Suits the watch I think.

Looks great particularly on the CwC! Nice to see they do it in two colours.
Good choice 

I found a french surplus site selling simple sewn MN straps at a very decent price. Shipping took a while as they were out of stock but i am very pleased with the quality.

Yes, I bought one of their straps in small. Should have gone for medium (which hasn't been in stock since).

The downside is that unless I could cut one open then restitch it it wouldn't work with the cwc's fixed lugs

Sorry, forgot they are fixed lugs.

That's an unusual H3? Did you make this yourself?
Cheers.

No, a guy called Randall Benson from California built it for me. It's a 6309 with a 300m Tuna bezel insert, all sandblasted.
