    Where can I buy 22mm natos as good as Eddie's?

    I've been buying TF natos for years and, along with Phoenix, they're the best around. However Eddie's range is somewhat limited in 22mm colour options.

    Despite trying many outlets I've never found any that are similar to Eduardo's but with greater colour and pattern choice. I can and have found lots of Zulus but I prefer the smaller keepers on a nato.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks.

    I have not handled the TF natos, but the seatbelt /Deluxe nato looks identical to the material used in CheapNatoStraps Seatbelt straps.
    I have a few CheapNatoStraps seatbelt natos and they are outstanding. Same quality as BlueShark Natos at a fifth of the price.
    My only gripe is they can be a bit short at 28cm. by short, i mean there is not enough tail to comfortable fold back under the keeper, at least on my wrists, but if i cut about 1cm off, theres no overhanging tail to fold back.
    The deluxe is a little thicker than the single layer standard seatbelt nato, just to keep in mind, if you're planning on using them on a watch with little clearance.

    CheapNatoStraps regular nato is quite good quality too, but for a standard nato, you cant beat the Martac ones. Super comfortable and stay looking new forever. Not such a great selection of colors though.



    Id recommend getting a plain basic seatbelt and a premium seatbelt from cheapNatoStraps, they're so cheap that theres no massive risk. Im sure they will impress.

    Toxic natos are lovely. Watch gecko too, but the fabric is a bit thinner than the tf ones

    I went for a Geckota from their irridescent range. Very good quality and a lovely colour for the spring/summer.

    My preference is a three ring rather than five but
    watchobsession and on ebay Aussiestraps both do some decent kit.

    That blue/white one looks really good. Might try on my samurai. Is your black one from TF?
