I like it! Gives a little bit more life to a sober watch.

Looks ok, but I prefer this one, to match the dial.

Looks good! But that's not a "Bond Nato"

Oh
Was described on Amazon as a bond.
Still for £10.00 who cares.
Looks ok to me.

Looks right at home...although I agree with Angelo, I like the one in your avatar a little better.

I think the actual "Bond" NATO - 16mm wide, black(blue?)/red, green, etc - only looks cool on Connery's wrist and that these other approximate "Bond" NATOs (black/grey etc, black, gold etc) look better.

Daniel Craig seems to have decided this and often wears a black/grey NATO.

Also, the bond strap wasn't a nato, it was a regular buckle strap.
