fit of erika's originals or nato with curved springbars

[dchang81]

silly question but how do nato or erika's originals straps look with curved spring bars? do you tend to need to order a larger size to accommodate the curve?

Who the heck is Erika? Have we all met her? Seriously.....you might not want to assume everyone knows what you are talking about or wants to spend the time googling it.

that's why i wrote NATO as well, figuring not everyone knows erika's originals.

Not a bad question at all. I haven't tried yet, but I suspect that most watches with curved spring bars are designed to get the strap as closely fitted to the case as possible. You may have an issue securing an Erika's Original or Nato strap with a curved bar. I don't think either are thin or supple enough to work, as they won't easily fold over the edge of the bar. If you get it to work, please post some pics! I'm a huge fan or EO straps, very comfortable and versatile way to change up the look of one's watch. Perfect fit every time.

I have Erika’s on my HODINKEE blancpain milspec. It and other Natos (bark and jack and blancpain) fit just fine. Did not order a larger size and it fits both on my naked wrist and on my wetsuit just fine.
