I got my Real Bond Nato from Corvus today for my 5508. Now all I need is a Tux an Aston Martin and I'm ready for my Bond role Play!

I opted for the 20mm rather than the 18mm since I think it looks silly to expose the spring bars.
It is very comfortable and highly recommended if you are looking for a quality strap.

The Needle? There are no needles on this old crusty watch
The watch was made in 1958..

The new Rolex hands are made of gold. This is a vintage watch.

JohnEaton · 14 January 2012, 12:20 PM

WOW! That looks SWEET Matt !!!!!!

drockadam · 14 January 2012, 12:25 PM

Matt, I'll be on the next flight. I need to see your 5508. And possibly try it on, if you would allow me! Haha! It looks fantastic!

No biggie IMO.

I had one until a few years ago.

liptonnr · 14 January 2012, 04:24 PM

Looks great! 20mm was the right choice!

MP5 · 14 January 2012, 04:31 PM

I know the Bond look as I do it myself at times but this 5508 chose Shell Cordovan you had on there. I have been in love with this watch and combo since you got it.

TSW · 14 January 2012, 04:31 PM

Very nice!
