I don’t think you can go wrong with any of these, but I like the black with red borders the best. Goes well with the red accents on the logo and second hand.

I would go with the black, gray-border to be sporty and yet a bit classy as well.

None for me, I'd stay with what you have. Just not a fan of NATO straps. But I'm in the minority.

I like all as well. If I had to pick just one, I would go with the black and red. It is good to have a solid black nato as well. When I had my SM300, that was by far the strap that got the most use.

I have the ss bracelet also, so just looking for a nato for the collection.

I’m a sucker for the black and grey stripes personally (I have that one). That’s my choice although I like the black with grey edge too.

I think black with the red border will accent the red seamaster lettering .

Me too so the bond nato would be my vote too 😀

If you can live with non-omega brand natos they become realistically priced and you can have all three for 50 bucks and feel clever about the money you saved.

then you can reward yourself with a nice bottle of something and still be ahead.

Sorry, no, I can't live with non Omega brand. It doesn't make sense to me to have original rubber and original ss in the drawer and wear the watch on a cheap strap, I would always feel that I'd wished I'd worn it on one of the originals I had sat at home. I do have slight ocd!

IMO single pass straps are preferable to NATOs. There's less material, they wear nicer. Save yourself some money AND get a better strap: https://www.crownandbuckle.com/straps-by-type/chevron-watch-straps.html
I second this ! I'm a big fan of the C&B Chevrons !


The design is based on the woven straps that come with the Tudor Blackbays (and is pretty much identical). Hardware is top quality.

And if you have to have a NATO, their Supreme Nato line uses a top quality material (pretty close to Omega's, of which I have a couple too) and top shelf hardware. They can also be ordered as "single pass".


I can assure you, these are NOT your typical cheap straps !

BTW, no affiliation, just a very satisfied customer.

Must admit, that does look tempting?
You may be providing some therapy for my ocd!

Look, at the reasonable prices of the C&B, you owe it to yourself to give a Chevron a try. It's unlike anything else and I'm sure you will enjoy it, whether you also buy the Omega Nato or not.
