I can't say enough about how much I love NATO straps.

Recently I purchased one from a guy named David. He's got a nice selection and only charges $12 shipped. Well, I ordered another.

Here they are together. 20mm Bond style.

Which color combo looks best in your opinion?

I like picture number two better....but the Tag seems equally happy with either though. I always felt the strap should compliment the watch, not overpower it....the red strap just seems to overpower the Omega.

Interesting. I agree. But in this case, the Omega on the red & black actually looks decent. I prefer it on the black and gray of course (as you can see below it's spectacular), but it's a nice bold statement.

I love these straps.

IMO the Great White looks better. Both look cool though!

It's always hard making decisions like this ! ..Going to say
the second set of pictures with those combinations is best
Poli ! Did someone metion Nato? 803574 To be honest I like ALL of the looks you are showing,
and would go with any of them. However, the way the red
dial on your Tag Heuer gets supercharged by the nato is
excellent !!! ..The gray nato works AMAZINGLY well with
your Omega as well ! Did someone metion Nato? 46145 ..Super cool Thunderball pic by
the way !!!!

The great white looks good in both but particularly the grey/black. Did'nt you hate NATOs before? May have been someone else I'm thinking of.

Man you guys rock. Just what I need more encouragement.
Sad

I don't recall ever saying that I didn't like NATO straps. Maybe I was drunking.?
