    No, not a genuine omega Nato, I don't actually own any genuine ones but would like one if anyone has one to sell.

    A less colourful choice I wear.

    The official omega NATO’s are genuinely x 10 better than any cheap versions.

    Are they worth 150 quid absolutely not but compared to a 20 quid one it’s night and day.

    If omega reduced them to say 60 people would be absolutely all over them.

    Apollo, which was a zulu style IIRC.

    Not quite a NATO, but one of Eddie's 2 piece ones

    It looks like every colour combination of NATO is going to suit the Speedy :-)

    If I had a Nato I would be so on this, if I had a Speedy.

    How about post your cat on your Skoda VRS post? I can do that.

    What model is this? Different hands and no "PROFESSIONAL" text.

    Edit: FOIS - the strap threw me. Doh!

    It’s the First Omega In Space or “FOIS” Numbered Edition (rather pointlessly really since it doesn’t have limited production). Also has no crown guards.

    I know the brief of this thread is Speedy Pro and it’s not actually the Professional version but I always wear mine on a nato so I thought I’d share anyway.

    It looks great. I hadn’t even noticed the lack of crown guards.

    I love it, every time I put it on it makes me smile. But I do wish there was a bracelet version (ideally one similar to the 57 trilogy Speedmaster bracelet) and I wish it came with hesalite not sapphire.

    Any more details on the third strap down, all black, I really like the angular metalwork on it. Thanks.

    There's some lovely Speedies on NATOs so far in this thread. However, I must confess to not being a huge fan of NATOs, I normally trim them to RAF style but I'm looking at trying some perlons with my Speedy. In the meantime, here's two shots to prove that some NATOs just don't work with the Speedy.

    I'm pretty sure it's one of Eddie's. Best NATOs money can buy.

    Google Toxic Straps, bought it from there. Omega OEM quality

    Love playing around with Natos on my Speedy, really changes up the watch for very little effort. Some I've tried over the years, there's been many others, prob over 20, some of which just looked wrong TBH, but these were the most successful (in my eyes anyway...) When not on a bracelet, I tend to wear it most on the black TF one (20mm but just about ok) and the grey Gnomon one (proper 19mm)

    No need for all these wild colours, a simple classic vintage Speedy Pro on a black Nato just looks great..

    The second one (a 3594.50) doesn't say "Professional" on the dial but it is no amateur, it has the same case and movement as the standard Speedy Pro.
