I really like the look of your Seadweller with that NATO strap ( and I'm not partial to nato straps). Great combination for a great watch! Just don't blow any dust in there.

That DSSD looks great on NATO! How does the comfort compare to the oyster bracelet?

Up until about a week ago I would never have even considered removing the Oyster bracelet for any type of strap. But then I tried on both THC and Black Bay with fabric "NATO" style straps and I have to say the NATO started growing on me. To me the comfort is equal to that of the Oyster bracelet, it dries quickly, and it is not itchy like I thought it would be.
At this point I still consider myself a bracelet guy, the NATO seems to be a cool way to change things up a little.

On a side note my wife hates the NATO, (She is still hard core bracelet) she says she will not go any where with me while I am wearing it, and I have completely ruined a beautiful time piece.

I agree with your smart wife.

If I had to guess, thawing out a freezer with a heat gun.

Watch looks great

The defrost heater burned out( again ) :(

A friend of mines wife's hair dryer died so she tried using his heat gun to dry her hair, that was entertaining. She just didn't look right with the short haircut for the next several months.
