Sniper Bay Nato Strap Watch Strap – Nato Watch Straps for Men and Women with Military-Grade Nylon, Stainless Steel – 18mm, 20mm, 22mm, 24mm Wrist Strap Widths

I have used the original metal bands on all my watches (Omega & Breitling) for years but my weight tends to go up and down these days and the band can be comfortable one month and unwearable a few months later, I then diet and they are fine again. I got fed up with this and was going to change to Leather straps until I stumbled across Nato straps. I didn't understand the appeal at first but decided to try one and I'm glad I did. They are really adjustable and comfy, the range of colours means I can find a colour scheme to match any timepiece and honestly they look impressive once in place. There are two ways to wear these bands, that I know of, the traditional has the backle to the side of the watch face, that isn't for me, it is too bulky when wearing a suit and cufflinks, so I use the second method where the buckles fasten in the traditional place under the wrist. It's neater and there are plenty of tutorials on YT so you can find the way you prefer. I know it sounds daft to replace a stainless watch band that cost a lot of money with a canvass strap but they really do work and look good too. I'm getting a few of these from Sniper Bay as they can be changed in seconds to change the look to match what I am wearing. I can find no fault so far with these great Nato's from Sniper Bay. The spring pin tool is an added bonus but I'd prefer the choice as I now have 3 of them but it means I'll never be without one if I need one and you can always give one to a friend who doesn't have one. So far they are a 5 star product.

I suppose very few people buy this kind of watch just to check the time or to dive with it on. Certainly it shows the time and I am sure that you can go diving with it. I bought it for the looks though and I was not disappointed. With this NATO strap it's a stunner. The strap itself looks and feels premium and expensive but combined with this particular watch it seems spot on. Match made in heaven. There is more than one way to wear the strap and I am sure that a short search will bring you to many helpful tutorials. I like this classic way. It suits my rather large wrist.Overall highly recommended strap.

I bought 2 NATO straps from 2 different makers. Because i wanted this particular strap with the metal keeper and the other with a nylon one.This strap is the thinner of the 2 but half the price. It still feels quality. It has a nice finish on the holes and strap ends (no fraying). There are 13 holes and my 7 1/2" wrist uses the middle hole. There is a little adjustment at first because the buckle naturally sits right on the side of the wrist which is a pain. But can be adjusted to sit in the middle.Good price and comfortable.

I bought this for occasional use on an Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch which came with a black leather strap and a black NATO type strap so I can compare this strap with an Omega original. .The strap arrived neatly boxed and came with a spring pin release tool. For me its another one to add to the collection but if you don't have one it makes removing a leather strap or bracelet a lot easier. These straps are of course fitted with the pins in place so the tool is not needed if going from NATO to NATO Strap. The strap itself seems well made and looks good on the watch but note this is a first impression review so I can't comment on long term use.Now to compare with the genuine Omega article. When viewed on its own this strap looks quite smart and I have no complaints. When placed next to the Omega strap there is a clear difference in quality, especially with the stainless steel fittings. The quality difference is no big surprise but does however need to be related to the cost. This strap has a delivered price which is one tenth the price of the Omega. On that basis this strap is a great buy.I find reviews help my buying decisions. If this helps you please click the "helpful" button so I know I am not wasting my time. Thanks.

Bought this as my cheap and cheerfull Casio W800 h strap broke and I didn't want to replace it with another plastic strap with a weak clasp.This Strap from Sniper Bay was sensibly priced and arrived promptly. It was easy to fit (18mm) and the only modification I needed to make was to reduce the length. (Cut off excess and seal the end to prevent frawing.It looks great and is very comfortable, I am now considering replacing the nylon strap on my Swatch and will definitely go for another like this.I haven't had it long enough to comment on durability, but it seems very robust, so I amm not expecting any problems.

Slightly thinner than expected but really nicely built, Fits perfectly on the wrist, will have to wear it long term to see the durability but feels it will hold up well
