Some days ago i received the Corvus Bond nato so had to take some pictures. I think the combination is not so bad. Now about the quality of this strap...i think is very low for a $ 39 price. Cheap buckle...on their web site shows you a buckle with "Made in Britain" but i had received a different one. Anyway this strap should cost $ 10 not more. If $ 39 was the real price then a nato strap from time factors should cost $ 100 if you compare the quality.
The last pictures: buckle i had received and buckle that shows on their web site.

Thanks for the update. I was going to buy one of these but now I think I'll reconsider

Not bad looking, but a bit expensive for a nato strap.

I mirror your thoughts exactly.I bought an admiralty grey one cos timefactors do not have in dark grey...the corvus is very cheap quality IMHO

i use the maratac straps from "broadarrow.net" and have no complaints about them.

just looked and they do a military type stripe.

I was thinking if they cost $ 39 must have a very good quality, but seems that who sells this straps wants only to make profit and doesn't need that customers return to him for other acquisition.
I was thinking why nobody sells this combination of colors? If he made a quality strap like this he can make a lot of money...

They are just trying to charge folks who want the NATO colors from the strap Bond wore....pure and simple.

Puffy · 16 August 2011, 12:52 AM

don't like this... colours are too clashy... 39 bucks also seems very expensive..

have a look for Gnomon Watches, they're cheaper and quality is great
