A Sub deserves a NATO IMHO. Especially if you dive with it.

Just be warned that NATO straps can pull or catch on the shouldered springbars causing them to become a projectile! I like the look, but I prefer wearing a NATO on a watch with lug holes.

Nice. I've played around with natos a bit but always end up preferring the oyster in the end. Enjoy!

Looks good.
NATO is the only way to go if it's not on an Oyster.

Sorry I'm just not a fan of nato straps but if you like it that's all that matters.

To me, this is all just for fun. I like oyster band way more, but the nato is also good in certain ways.
