It could be argued that 20mm lug spacing on watches of this size is too wide. I've been wearing my 36mm Everest on Natos from day one, apart from brief tries on leather. The thickness and weight of standard Natos is perfect, but the non taper just doesn't work quite right for me. Eddie's grey Nato is a great colour, but the size of the buckle plus the non taper leaves the whole combo unbalanced for me. Other makes work better as the buckles and hardware are much more svelte and of course polished. Eddie's grey and coyote brown work brilliantly on the much larger Damaskos I have, and of course the finish of the hardware matches the Damasko steel very well. My next move is to fit shoulderless bars to the Everest and try it with an 18mm Nato. I've got a couple on an issued CWC and issued Precista that I have, I'll dig 'em out later and put a few pics up.
