Debating which NATO to put on my Batman - thoughts?
Yes, I know it's my choice, and I should do what I like, but curious for the community's views!
Also considering just rocking a Rubber B of course too - still debating that  Also considering it on a Navy Shell Cordovan

Agh! Why can't they merge 1 & 2 for a black and blue strap?

I like the middle one and the cordovan, but you’re not thinking about matching an Omega strap with a Rolex, are you? That's worse than wearing Nike sneakers with Adidas socks and vice versa.

The middle one is nice. To me, just about anything beats an oyster with polished links. Mine is on a blue Everest strap.

Rubber okay. Nato, I don't see it. But if I have to choose it'll be the first one.

If you're asking for our thoughts, I'll be honest and say I don't think any of those look good.

I always like the colors of a lot of the nylon NATO straps I see on these forums. But I don’t like one piece NATO straps in general if that makes sense. I just don’t like how they look on the wrist.

I enjoy NATO straps, but none of the ones here particularly interest me. Of the four you've shown, the solid black one takes my pick. The BLNR has enough color & a striped NATO strap would make it too busy-looking.
Also consider BluShark for NATOs & 2-piece fabric-based straps. Hadley Roma has a robust catalog of leather as well, but I don't think the leather look on this case would be well-suited.

Can’t put Rolex on Omega NATO.
Also the current Rolex cases don’t sit well on NATO straps |

To each their own, of course, but this feels like putting aftermarket wheels on a Ferrari.
That said, it would be awesome if the OF fit the GMT II, but to my understanding it leaves a gap. |

I personally have never liked nato straps. They never wore well for me. But if I had to pick, I’d go #1.

Erica’s gray with blue, or gray with black.

Personal thoughts on NATO straps aside, I would go with the middle one.

Solid black. The blue is not a good match for your bezel blue, and the grey/black just doesn't work for me. I'd also consider solid grey, but you don't have that listed as an option.
I agree with those who say use a different brand. |

The only tricky choice here for me is oyster or jubilee - I own a watch on a nato but don’t think a GMT is the right place for one to be honest.

Out of the three options I definitely find the black one to look the best. It matches the dial which then lets the bezel pop. The two striped ones kinda distract from the watch itself.
