I'm giving my rivited C.I. Oyster bracelet a much needed break. What do you guys think about the OD green Maratac on my vintage GMT? Is it ugly or what? I sort of dig it...

Yes it is.

Bobble · 16 October 2011, 11:53 PM

TBH, black would be better

drockadam · 16 October 2011, 11:53 PM

Go with a blue or navy Nato?

Beaumont Miller II · 17 October 2011, 12:00 AM

I wore the same on Friday. I bought the olive drab Maratac and think it looks great on the 1675 GMT.

dddrees · 17 October 2011, 12:03 AM

Doesn't look to bad.

greekbum · 17 October 2011, 12:04 AM

Looks great

It's awesome how our opinions vary... I guess it boils down to what we each like as individuals, right?

As long as you like it that's really all that matters.

Rags · 17 October 2011, 12:35 AM

Sorry but green isn't working..

Baco Noir · 17 October 2011, 12:48 AM

Not a fan of that color combo.

Looks great. The olive green matches the bezel insert nicely!

This is my 16750 on a red & black nato, I am not mad about nato's on GMT's but that's just a personal thing, I think the colour works well with the Pepsi though

apeogre · 17 October 2011, 09:14 PM

I would wear it!

jhcam8 · 18 October 2011, 05:08 AM

Looks nice - esp. for a change of pace.

JimSnyder · 18 October 2011, 09:14 AM

It's perfect Joe. Great choice

Thanks Jim! I actually like the OD green strap. It must be my tremendous love for our military that makes me partial to the color...

cruvon · 18 October 2011, 10:52 AM

I guess the question to ask is would you wear a pair of green/olive trousers with a black shirt that has red and blue stripes on it, I wouldn't especially with the blue in it, but whatever sails your boat and makes you happy;)

masterserg · 18 October 2011, 10:59 AM

Looks great to me!

springer · 18 October 2011, 11:13 AM

It is definitely an interesting combination of colors.

Keeperoftime · 18 October 2011, 12:28 PM

I think it is interesting and if you like it Rock it!

whiskyguy · 18 October 2011, 10:11 PM

Looks Great!

sailmed · 18 October 2011, 11:27 PM

I think it makes a statement that it is tool watch, no nonsense and rugged to boot !

Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but it makes it look tough and I like it.

sierra11b · 19 October 2011, 09:21 AM

I love the Pepsi on Olive Drab Nato. Looks great on Khaki and Blue, too.
