Tudor NATO Straps

Thought I’d share this photo. How many of you have a Tudor on their NATO straps? Personally I love them. Feel free to share your photos.

I’m with you… I wear all my dive watches on NATO straps. More comfortable and keeps the bracelets in good shape for my kids.

Love them on NATO's... just not the thin flimsy Tudor NATO's that come with the watches.

Tudor makes some great NATO straps. I find Omega to be slightly better but price is also a consideration.

Love the Ranger (first Tudor). Was an unplanned purchase at the Tudor AD in Milan.

I have 3 of the Tudor NATO straps that I rotate on my Ranger. Love them, their craftsmanship is impressive.

Too bad most of their selection are 22mm, I wish they made more 20mm options that I could use on other watches.

Interesting. Do they all fit based on the lug width? I have been wanting to pick up the NATO from the BB GMT.

Most Tudor watches are 22mm lug width and from what I’ve seen in my browsing, most of the strap selection is 22mm and very few 20mm. I suppose you could use the straps with 20mm lugs if you swap the spring bars with smaller ones. Just remember the spring bars are integrated in the strap so 20mm bars MAY not be wide enough foe the straps.

Granted my search has only entailed ebay, chrono24 & Authenticwatches.com (which is very overpriced!)

My BBGMT came on that NATO but I swapped it out for the Bracelet, it’s sitting in the box if you’re interested, PM me.

Great examples, everybody!

While I have worn my THC on the OEM Tudor Nato I prefer the comfort provided by Erika's MN straps. Great to have options.

Regardless, modern Tudors evoke the 5 digit tool watch era which allow them to look great on just about anything.

BTW, stop by The Nylon Nation and join the fun.https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=70313

You motivated me to try the one that came with my ceramic. I guess the Artem strap I recently received will be going back in the drawer for a while.

Just added this one today from Everest. I find I’m liking the single pass type much better.

NATOs look great in photos but not for me. I bought a Tudor OEM strap, tried it, took it off soon after, went back to the bracelet, sold it, never looked back.

Love Tudors on Natos and the OEM fabrics, but also much prefer Erika’s.
