NATO Strap blue beige bue vintage 20mm

Two spring bars, not one

This is what the NATO strap is really for. The band bears on both spring bars at once: if one gives way, the other still holds the watch. On a timepiece you care about, that is not a technical detail, it is the central point. The idea comes from the British G10: a single piece of woven nylon, with no break in the band. It passes behind the case and seats on both spring bars. Tongue and keepers in marine stainless steel, immune to salt corrosion. Care is simple: machine at 30°, then leave to dry.

Beige, held in place by blue

Beige takes the centre, blue frames it. This vintage arrangement escapes the all-beige trap: there is a structure, so the eye reads it at once. On a watch with an aged blue dial, the match becomes rare and right.

Few customers keep to a single one: in the same vein, see the 20mm Alpine grey beige NATO strap or the 20mm black two beige lines NATO strap. To move upmarket, the NATOCONCEPT bordeaux is worth a glance. Every shade sits in the 20mm NATO straps category. In doubt over sizing? The how to choose the right width will guide you. Curious about its beginnings? how the NATO strap was born tells the whole story.
