Tudor Pelagos on a Green NATO (PIC)!

Bought a green NATO for the Tudor Pelagos this weekend in Bangkok. Great for life in the heat and makes the watch a lot lighter at the same time...

What do you think?

I live in that part of the world too (well, Hong Kong), and prefer a bracelet for the summer heat. You'll see a lot of Thais (especially older folk) wearing bracelets too. NATOs just soak up the sweat and get smelly. Bracelets can be rinsed, too. Watch looks ok on it, though.

Great thing about Nato's, you can slip it right off the case without removing the spring bars. I just wash mine every few days with warm water and mild soap and air dry, dries in hours.

Looks awesome! So utilitarian looking with that strap and the matte finish of the watch. Good call!

Yes, now that I have the green I will buy a few more online... including black and grey... They really are super comfortable! As for the heat issue, I guess I will just toss them in the wash from time to time...

I must admit, from the title I was picturing a very different green ;)

It looks fantastic. A really nice military look about it. I think I will try and source one too. Thanks!

Looks great and I'm usually not a fan of NATOs.

Nice combo.


Looks good on a Micah French Canvas, too.






Seeing this makes me miss my Pelagos a bit more.
