Icon7 Rolex Buckle for my Bond NATO!

After seeing a pic of JJ's NATO with a Rolex buckle a while back, I had to have one!

Thought it would be the perfect fit for my 5513 w/Bond and found a guy who had one in 20mm.

Perfect mod to complete the look!

Very cool. I looked for a buckle for mine and had a hard time locating one in 20mm.

NATO Nation!

Awsome look! I've been wanting to do this for a while now.

I wonder if it'll work with a Maratac nato..

Hi,

I have been searching high and low for a 20mm Rolex buckle for my NATO without any luck. Can anyone confirm where I could purchase one from?

Many thanks

Looks good.

I have managed to buy two 20mm Rolex SS buckles over the years.
They do come up from time to time.
