Add Wimbledon NATO to Wimbledon DJ for Wimbledon fortnight?

Scroll down here to the "Wimbledon NATO" article:

Then look here:

Can you imagine it on my DJ?:




I have the green already. Purple goes with gold (think royalty).

Worth £50 for a fortnight's wear each year, just for fun!?

Old photo. The stickers came off at 9 months.

9 months?

Joking aside, I still vote Jubilee purely because I can't see "dressing down" to attend Wimbledon. But, I'm not one to attend an event and take a wrist shot. I'd rather enjoy every moment with friends, family and players.

Looks OK on a SS with a black dial. I'd have to see your watch on the strap but my instinct is the TT won't look good with the purple. And it's hard to tell switching between browser pages but the green on the strap looks a darker shade than the green romans on the watch.

As a tennis fan, I’d say, wonderful look! The Jubilee is great, but what I found with watches is a change — as temporary as it may be — is always welcome! It’s almost getting a new watch. That’s why I like some of the new Omega releases which come with both a bracelet and a strap. I’m actually looking at that same DJ, but feel it’s still too dressy for me. (And I never like a strap on a maxi case sports rolex for some reason)

This MUST happen!

Lugs 21mm.

NATO 20mm or 22mm.

Which is best and why?

[037]

22mm. I dislike loose fit.

[DavidUK]

In the article ( http://dev.quillandpad.com/2015/07/0...is-nato-strap/ ), the back strap has been cut off the NATO, as we can see in these three photos...








I have done this before and it makes for a neater appearance, although the watch isn't retained if one spring bar goes!

I just found a 22mm NATO and fitted it. Tight fit inside the bars! I've left the back strap on this one...






So, use your imagination and think if the Wimbledon NATO, maybe with the back strap cut off, would suit?

[037]

Maybe? I personally would prefer this in a smooth stainless bezel rather than YG fluted. Perhaps that's why I'm opposed to it on your watch. It works better on the Explorer in my eyes.

Jubilee.

I wouldn't do it... looks great on the jubilee

[DavidUK]

Just cut the back off the green NATO (photo)...

Does it help?...






Someone cleverer than I could probably change the strap to the green, white, and purple?

Don't worry. £50 on a NATO I'm just going to go "nah" when fitted isn't something I'm rushing at!

Prefer the jubilee.

Me too, but just for fun during Wimbledon fortnight?

Put it on every Wimbledon every year. 20 years wear = £2.50 a year.
