strap terminology help

I like straps that come in a single piece, and thread under the watch similar to a NATO, but without the excess length that a NATO has

An example of this is the fabric strap that comes with some Tudor models

Just wondering what term one would use to search for straps like this... "NATO" straps all seem to have excess length and any other straps I find come in 2 pieces.

Thanks!

You may be referring to a RAF strap

I'm glad there was a response to the OP's question as I was interested in this as well.
I'm planning ahead for when I get my Black Bay.

the RAF has a nylon/cloth keeper instead of a metal one like the NATO or ZULU. this company is a good source for RAF/NATO/ZULU watchstraps...broad selection/reasonable prices/expedient shipping & an excellent return policy in the event you decide to switch styles.
