Rolex DSSD on NATO picture request...

As the title suggests, please post a picture of your DSSD in a NATO if you have one. Not rubber or canvas...NATO please.
As you can see from my avatar, I regularly wear my Rolex on a NATO and I have a recent feeling to get a DSSD and throw it on one too...
Thanks

I did a google image search and found a couple shots. Doesn't look too bad.

I have not figured how to post pictures but can say I've worn my DSSD on a nato a lot and it's not bad at all. The lugs are 21mm. Make sure to get a 22mm NATO- it will fit fine. And the extra mm adds stability to counter the weight.

Mine's a D-Blue, but I love it on the nato/zulu strap. Probably 50/50 split between SS and nato. Here are some pictures for you...

does anyone use a 5-ring Zulu with their sport/tool Rolexes? the Zulus have a heavier nylon weave & carabiner-shaped hardware. though they are more utilitarian in appearance & less stylish than NATOs, some folks feel that Zulus support a heavier watch case (i.e. GMTs & Submariners) better & compliment the watch's rugged appearance.

I have used one...not on a Rolex, but another dive watch. I prefer the NATO
