Brand NEW - 20mm G10 RAF MOD Nato watch strap / band – BLACK-GREY SKUNK (BLACK with GREY stripe) color

The basic Nato strap was made famous by our favorite Secret Agent – 007 James Bond (Sean Connery) in Goldfinger (see pic).  As he was caught wearing a MOD nato strap on his Rolex Submariner.  These classics are worn today – see pic of Daniel Craig (regular life / off-camera (see pic)). 

The watch strap that WIS watch collectors call “NATO” (originals to the  Rhino, Waterborne, or Maratec Zulu straps) is based upon the standard watch strap issued by the British UK Ministry of Defense (MOD). Called the “G10″ by members of the British military because of the form used to requisition the strap (and other items) from inventory, the reason it got its “NATO” name is because the strap has a NSN or NATO Stock Number which identifies this type of strap. Incidentally, the actual military spec strap comes in only one color (Admiralty Grey) and one width (20mm). The hardware specs have not changed (chrome plated brass), though at least some of the straps currently issued have stainless steel fittings. And there are actually TWO NATO stock numbers for the straps: Army/Navy (6645-99-124-2986) and RAF (6645-99-527-7059). …

Bonus !!!   

·        purchase comes with two sets of spring bars ($9 VALUE FREE !!!)

o       20mm fat bars (20mm x 2.50mm x 1.1mm) – popular SEIKO

o       20mm regular (20mm x 1.78mm x 1.1mm) – regular width with 1.1mm ends to properly fit sport / dive watches

·        Includes both styles of spring bars as some watch enthusiasts prefer the heavy duty fat bars, while others prefer a lower profile spring bar.   These custom spring bars are popular in the WIS community, as the ends are made larger (1.1mm) to better fit sport watches, and will not damage / enlarge the holes in your watch, as would with regular thinner spring bars.

·        TIP – check and replace your spring bars every few years as even SEIKO OEM stainless steel spring bars are known to show wear and rust with time and use.

Customer Comments

…I just got the bracelet and installed it on my watch: beautiful! Thanks! MS

…the bracelet received today and I already fixed on the watch, all perfect, thanks for all. Best regards TM

…I can't thank you enough! Your bracelet has turned my old Seiko diver into a wearable ADULT watch... finally, no more rubber straps. Wow, it fits so snugly on the case. I'm so glad I didn't end up buying the jubilee bracelet available from another seller on eBay; those solid links look so good with that case. What a great deal! It's been a pleasure doing business with you, and 5-Star Positive Feedback has been left. Thank you very much, B

...Got it! And I love it! T
