Orange NATO watch strap

The NATO strap has its origins in military needs. Developed in the 1970s by the British Ministry of Defense, it met a specific demand: a durable and secure strap solution for military watches.

Here are the main characteristics of its very strict specifications that speak for themselves about the desire to obtain an effective and flawless strap:

• 1.2 mm thick gray woven nylon.
• Designed from a single piece.
• One-piece buckle (immovable, without pump).
• Heat-sealed buckle and loops.
• Cut nylon band and heat-sealed holes.
• 20 mm wide (lug width of military watches of the time).
• 280 mm long (to be attached over thick suits including the Royal Navy diving suit).

Today, NATO straps come in many colors and patterns. They are comfortable to wear, water-resistant, and very affordable. That's why a NATO strap fits almost all watches and styles!
