Is There A "Best" Brand of Zulu or NATO Watch Strap?

.

 

Nice movie history lesson. Here is my Explorer II with the current iteration of that strap from Crown & Buckle. And I don't think it looks "bloody ugly" like one previous poster stated here.

 

Schönheit liegt im Auge des Betrachters. The video authentic Bond strap has three colors and it clashed with my Orient CER00007B (blue sapphire snorkeler) and its Orient logo.





IMO it was too much for the watch. If you don't think it's bloody ugly, that's fine. British isn't my first language either. Call it farshlugener or if that's too literary, verblonget as in Verblonget in Space.

 

Another vote for the Crown and Buckle Supreme Nato (https://www.crownandbuckle.com/straps-by-type/natos/supreme-nato-straps.html) although I like the Maratac ones too.

 

Yet another vote for Crown and Buckle, here a nato on my Vostok Scuba Dude.

 

No! That strap is hideous according to Piso Mojado! Better toss it in the trash!

 

Sorry you haven't understood me. It's a question of taste regarding my watch and no one else's, not casus belli IMO.

 

Maratac bands are very good. I used a NATO (Maratac) band on a beater watch (worn every day) for over ten years with almost no signs of wear.

 

I have always worn a watch, and almost always with either a NATO or ZULU band. Check out Blu Shark watch straps, amazing quality. Currently running a MARATAC 3 ring Ti ZULU on my Stowa Seatime.

 

I recently got a couple Blu Shark straps, they are super comfortable and very well put together. Their colors and stitching are very well done, I'll probably be picking up a few more soon.
