    I’ve been spending a few minutes trying some different straps and bracelets on the blue denim Railmaster…

    This is a reference I don’t often think of, but wow what a gorgeous watch!!

    I think it looks great on every strap you put it on, with my favorites being photo #2 and photo #4

    #4 appears to my eyes as a leather nato.. at first glance I thought it was an orange fabric nato and I think it you can find that burnt orange color in some kind of textile or fabric, instead of the leather, that would be my favorite.

    I’m not a big fan of natos on my wrist. They look great for photos and the idea of them sounds comfortable, but everytime I decide to try one, I end up removing it pretty quick. Just too much fabric and height added for my taste. But I’m pairing it with a seamaster 300M, which is already not the slimmest case

    Great photos of a beautiful watch, the rail master deserves more of my attention, what a great choice for a casual every day watch.

    That first one, the navy blue & white-stripe Omega NATO, looks really good! :thumbsup: Also works well with the Milanese bracelet I think.

    This is actually a Phenomenato strap, but feels very close to the Omega one

    I love natos but same like mrmike585 they only work on flat watches for me.

    Oh interesting. I had an early PhenomeNato but I didn't like it very much, while it was soft it was very flimsy and thin compared to the Omega. This one looks much sturdier
