I like the look of an olive Maratac NATO.

I know you're looking for a NATO or otherwise, but for me the oyster has always been best. I've played around, and continue to, with natos and other leather straps on my sub but always find myself going back to the oyster as my favorite. With that said; yesterday I put my sub on a hirsch leather band (I never said I made any sense)

I've tried many different brands and styles of NATO / Zulu straps and the MARATAC NATO straps are the best IMHO. I've got an orange MARATAC that has been on more than 200 dives with me and is faded....but still in quite good condition even after all that use/abuse.

Do yourself a favor and buy a MARATAC NATO

I always went back to the oyster too. But I just put this gunny strap on and love the watch on this band. In the summer it's going on a black NATO.

When my 5513 is not on it's 7206 Oyster, this is the strap I tend to use.

I agree that the Oyster is my favorite but I enjoy a change up from time to time. I would consider a Rubber B strap. It isn't the same classic look as a Nato but looks great anyway.

Decisions, decisions my friend. I enjoy the variety and ease of NATO.

I don't have a picture but put mine on a black leather NATO sometimes. Looks great.

The oyster is still my favorite as well, but a black Mara-Tac Mil Series Nato is a great option when you are looking to change it up. I have an MI-6 that I like the look of as well...they are $10 on the website still. Make sure you get the 20mm size.

I prefer the bracelet the watch comes with...but, nothing wrong with a little variety. I like this one from Maratec...it's called the "MI 6" and is a replica of the one worn by Sean Connery with his Sub in "Goldfinger" and "Thunderball"...

It's not a NATO, though I think it's available as a NATO as well. Good quality.

Nice for a change, but, after awhile, I went back to the bracelet. I may, though, switch back in few months or so.

Nothing wrong with a little variety.
