Longines and NATO strap
Hello,
I've got a Longines Swissair Exclusive Nr 3 for more than 15 years. The alligator strap was starting to fall apart. So, I decided to purchase two NATO straps from TimeFactors. Here's my Longines with the grey one ( the other one is black). What do you think ? |

Black sure looks better (although I'm not a big fan of NATO straps)! Are you considering a new alligator band or are these going to be your piece's new bracelets?

Great looking watch. I think it would look even better on a nice brown or black alligator strap.

I have a "bond" NATO, because the bracelet was not fitting as well with my smaller wrist and prominent wrist bone

I love NATOs but I really think that watch would look better on a black leather strap with white stitching. It looks classy as hell with the white dial and a good strap would be the icing on the cake.
