Black out concept Nato

Has anyone handled or seen the BOC nato? I noticed them on the BOC website at euro50 and include leather. Iwould like to know what they are like before ordering one?

Just took a look at them, looks like leather on the inside of the strap which will contact with your skin then the nylon on the outside.

Personally, I'd just stick to the other natos out there for $12

I just thought the design was really nice being part leather, part nylon. Plus strange colour combos, although i would go for black on black. I would like to know what the quality is like.

I don't have any PVD or DLC watches, but if I did then this might appeal to me.

I agree it's not cheap, however Rolex charge £50 for a NATO in the uk and its no different to what you can purchase for £10. I just think the fact the backing is leather is a nice design.

I would like to know for someone who has had one or had there Rolex blacked what they are like before I part with £50.

It is very, very nice. You can always order and if you dont like it in person return it?

I did expect the quality to be good due to the being fitted on the BOC'd watches, I would like to see better images of the inside where the leather is fixed to the nylon.

If I had the cash spare I would have my GMT in like a shot to have it blackout, it looks so cool!
