yikes...not sure if i love it or hate it?

gogogojojojo · 17 January 2013, 12:27 PM

Wow! I would have never thought that would look so awesome!

mjclark32 · 17 January 2013, 12:28 PM

Looks a lot better than I thought it would

X2. At first I was scared to open the post but it doesn't look to bad. Would be nice if the tenders were gold as well but doubt you would ever find a NATO with gold loops.

Jsan20 · 17 January 2013, 12:37 PM

It actually looks good

Mickey® · 17 January 2013, 12:42 PM

Does not look at horrific as I thought it would.

Wow... Two veery different views of the world in one

drockadam · 17 January 2013, 12:46 PM

Looks pretty good!

Get a nice brown strap on that beauty!

Armyguy03 · 17 January 2013, 12:53 PM

I LOVE It!!!

Renoir · 17 January 2013, 01:12 PM

It's technically not a president w/o the bracelet. ;)

mrlongisland · 17 January 2013, 02:02 PM

I love the timepiece but, personally, not a fan of the band. A glossy alligator band, however, I would fancy. What model is this? I adore the Roman numerals.

I like it

Longhorn · 17 January 2013, 02:17 PM

I think there was a collective sigh of relief when this thread was opened. I like it! Where did you get your nato?

DJJon · 17 January 2013, 02:58 PM

I try so hard to be positive on TRF, but in this case, can't do it....sorry........

Would you paint your car at Earl Sheib?
Would you furnish your mansion from IKEA?
Would you eat at Spago in your pajamas?

Agree with the prior post, a 'President' is only such if it's on a President bracelet. This is just a DayDate on a piece of fabric.

The NATO is the thing of dive watches, not an iconic dress watch with the heritage of a Rolex DayDate.

Thanks for the pic, now go put that bracelet back on before the Fashion Police knock on your door !

Gotta agree. Ruined....comes to mind, but hey what do I know, still an amazing watch and more importantly that you're happy.

katana · 18 January 2013, 02:57 AM

Big shame that such a beautiful watch (Rolex icon) will be on nato bracelet ....

Sports watch, yes, but DD still deserves a better place than piece of cloth,or skin.

jolimont · 17 January 2013, 05:40 PM

sorry not for me... dress watches always look weird for me on a sports strap

Shade · 17 January 2013, 05:45 PM

I hope you like it but Im not sure its the right watch for a NATO strap...

Vincent65 · 17 January 2013, 06:15 PM

ouch!

TSW · 17 January 2013, 06:17 PM

Not bad at all.

JJL · 18 January 2013, 12:34 AM

Looks great IMO. I probably wouldn't keep it like that permenantly but to switch it up here and there, I think it is a great idea

dddrees · 18 January 2013, 12:36 AM

Well matched.

Bravo Sir!!!!

tedscott3 · 18 January 2013, 12:52 AM

Looks like a Mercedes with mud tires.

themast · 18 January 2013, 12:56 AM

Actually, I like it!

It probably steers away the watch from its natural habit but it does not look bad. With this setup I would not wear it under a formal suit but it would work under some formal casual look (for instance a jacket with jeans and this kind of stuff).
