Of course nothing beats the original oyster bracelet...but certainly a cheap/fun way to mix it up now and again. I tend to find it temporarily fulfills my need and desire for something new...and much cheaper than buying a new watch! :)

...but that means I have ended up with probably 20-30 straps; mostly natos.

Great point! My SS bracelet needs repair because of loose links. A new bracelet costs $1400+. I'm going with your idea. It is significantly cheaper. I'll keep the original bracelet safely in a drawer.

Mmm, not my cup of tea. I personally prefer rubber over NATO.

My 45 year old Sub on an RAF strap. I also have a NATO strap, but I find it too bulky and "fiddly". The 93150 goes on for more formal occasions (rarely).
