Hey everyone,

I've been a member on here for a couple years and I've really enjoyed reading the forum. I've never really had anything to say but I figure it's about time. I have a M serial Sea Dweller and I'd like to put a NATO band on it. I know that NATO's are kind of a polarizing topic around here, but I think they're pretty cool. Anyway, I'd like to find a good tutorial on how to change out the band on a SD, so if anyone could point me in the right direction it'd be much appreciated. I did try a search by the way and it didn't work for me.

Thanks,
Bob

Bob,
We'd love to have you join us http://www.rolexforums.com/showthrea...313.:thumbsup:
No need for it to be polarizing as you can always go back to the bracelet when you get the urge.

You have any tips on where to get the NATO's? I've seen the website that claims they make the original Bond NATO strap, but I'm more of a fan of the blue w/red stripe and the black w/grey stripe.

I've bought many from David, here:http://natostrap.blogspot.com/. But I've also purchased from www.timefactors.com, www.westcoastime.com, and others. A google search will offer many options.

I got mine from Timefactors. Even with shipping from the UK they arrived in about a week. Quite satisfied.

Welcome to TRF and to the NATO Nation. You are going to love how it looks on the SD.

bobp315 · 23 February 2010, 09:17 AM

Thanks! Yeah I'm pretty excited to get one and see how it looks.

CPTL · 23 February 2010, 09:27 AM

Maybe something like this.

bobp315 · 23 February 2010, 09:35 AM

I think that looks great. Since the SD is my only watch, and therefore the one I wear everyday, I've been looking for a way to switch things up a little.
