Aaron Bespoke Ostrich NATO Strap on Pepsi GMT 1675
Ostrich NATO Strap on my wife's GMT 1675.
I ordered this strap from Aaron Bespoke, formerly known as Combat Straps, in Montreal a couple weeks back...Aaron was very helpful via email describing his construction methods and other details as well as color and material selection...I wanted an unusual Nato strap made of exotic leather and was a bit concerned that it would be too thick to be comfortable and good looking...As it turned out I received the strap about two weeks from my initial order...The strap is soft, supple and surprisingly thin. I think it works well with the Pepsi GMT and it looks and feels great.

Was in the shop when he was finishing it, I marveled at its beauty and ordered one in black with red stitching, so you're the lucky owner! Enjoy it's super nice

My wife is wearing it already...I'll have to try something different now! The main thing is it's custom, not a generic cookie cutter strap, and the level of finish exceeds any I've owned or seen so far...Most leather straps tend to be quite stiff and bulky, this one is perfect. Ed

That's what I was most impressed with, it felt very high end and was very pliable
