I will say that the Exp-II white dial on NATO is a very versatile watch. The white dial brings in all kinds of colorful strap options, but the traditional Bond, black, grey, etc. work very well also. Wifey is wearing mine right now on a bright blue/white/light red strap due to her DJ being in for minor service.

Yep that's a keeper.

I do not like how NATO feels on my wrist but I would like to get a composite strap in olive drab.

Nice! I would have not thought to try that color either!

I've gotten the Nato itch for some reason in the past few days...I actually have a "Bond" Nato incoming for my Sub-C. Well, HOPEFULLY it's incoming...still haven't gotten an acknowledgement of my order. Can't wait!

Love NATO - They do good work and they stipulated a damn good strap - that could be cut off quickly with a knife if need be.

Here's mine:

And here's HIS.

What's not to love. Great combo, Explorer and NATO.
