    Thanks very much chaps - my only small regret is that I have a couple more straps on order which will possibly never get worn!

    I usually avoid silicone, but this is top quality - doesn't attract lint and has good colour-density - and just £8.59. Lots of other colours, too.

    Has smartwatch-style clip-on attachment though, which I know some people are wary of - I've had a few straps like this and never any problem.

    I like that - it almost has an AF0210 texture to it.

    Thanks. It is certainly a different textile and weave than other Omega NATO’s I own.

    Not exactly revolutionary but then sometimes they’re classics for a reason.

    Perfect? Well, no. The shade of blue's wrong. But it had to go somewhere, 'cos it is rather fun

    I'd say that strap might go well with a blue or black Monster.

    Good thought that - I must try it on my Black gen2

    A 22mm Toshi quality leather on the MK11 using a 20mm-22mm adapter, I like it.





  16. #2966
    Thought I’d try this on a nato, doesn’t look bad at all!

    Tandorio on a black Toshi, with thread recoloured to match the sandwich dial.


  23. #2973
    I found the Toshi strap to be superb quality but too thick for my liking so I've replaced it with this 3mm x 22mm black leather from Temu at a cost of £5.51 and I really like it and prefer the strap too the bracelet as for me the black of the strap matches the bezel.

    Thanks for that made the schoolboy error of thinking of selling the watch and then trying one last strap change - of course now I love it again

    I don't know about perfect but a Phoenix Elite NATO with PVD fittings is a mahoosive improvement on the Omega jobby that the Lava came with.

    Don't just do something, sit there. - TNH

    Thanks for sharing such a stunning dress watch, I'd not seen that before, but I'm just not sure about the NATO TBH.

    I’m with you, never have the occasion to wear a dress watch so thought I’d try and dress it down, didn’t get a great reaction from the wife who bought me the watch!

    The Squale 1521 really does relish a classic strap style - in this case a Eulit double-weave Perlon.



    In this case it's the two-part version called 'Palma', rather than the more usual pull-thru style.

    Eulit's take is certainly worth the money - the quality is much better than the usual Chinese-made stuff, albeit you pay for it.

  31. #2981
    Not the most imaginative pairing but I’m not a fan of the the MM300 bracelet or accordion style straps so I’ve stuck my green dial SLA047 on a green Kumihimo strap from the SPB207.

    They’re both from the Iriomote island green release a few years ago so the colour match is spot on.

    The green trousers are a bit much though.

    IMO MM300s are one of those watches that come to life on a strap as opposed to a bracelet. The green combo is especially auspicious

  33. #2983
    Thank you. I thought your Squale perlon pairing was particularly well judged for the summer.

    I’m pretty pleased with this:

    I’m loving this combo right now. My first sailcloth and it’s really comfortable once broke in.

    I don't know about perfect but I'm finding this so easy to wear on the mesh, it almost feels as though its not on a metal bracelet.

    Let's get this thread back on track.
