I recently purchased a Nato strap for my Seamaster and am super happy with it.



Would love to see other peoples Nato straps as well.

I know there is some discussion on if it "cheapens" the watch by adding such a low cost strap. Though if it is a tool watch than I wouldn't see why it matters.

 

Love it on a Nato. Here’s mine on a Phoenix G10.

 

Most Seamasters suit them and great for comfort, I wouldn't worry about what others think.
Is that a choice that yours is on the other way round?

 

No, did I accidentally put it on backwards?

 

Yes mate, doesn't look ..... 'that bad', but yeh, other way round so the two keepers are on the opposite side

 

Thanks for pointing that out! I have swapped it and it does look a bit better

 

Here’s mine

 

Bold choice. I like how it matches with the little details.

 

I’m sorry but I have to say that ( in my opinion) the problem here is not the kind of strap that is supposed to cheapen the watch; the problem here is the unmatched color of the strap! Sorry but I want to be honest.
You have the grey of the steel, the blueish grey of the dial, the multi-shades of blue of the bezel, the shiny blue of the hands, the white of lume on markers and hands and the white of the bezel’s numbers... I think there were so many colors to match your strap with... so in my unwanted opinion, the black for me is a NO. Sorry!

 

I actually really appreciate the constructive comment! What color would you recommend for the blue and sliver SMP?

 

NATO with flappy piece deleted:

 

Not the original poster, but I think these go well. I mean at the end of the day, as long as you like it, it's fine. We each have our own tastes.

 

If if one feels a regular nato cheapens the watch (I personally don’t feel this way), maybe a leather nato would be a good option.

 

Happy that my post didn’t hurt your feelings
You can try with a Haveston strap: the “fleet set” is a set of two straps, the “carrier” and the “m-22”, both perfectly fitting your beautiful watch IMHO
Watchgecko has a strap very similar to the OEM somebody suggested you (five stripes: three grey two blue) at 1/10 of the price
Crown and Buckle has beautiful straps (not NATO, but a hybrid between a NATO and a Perlon) called Chevron, and if I had your watch, I’d go with a "stone" or "night" color. Nato straps are available, too.

After market leather strap for today. Haven’t worn the watch in a few days so the date and time are off right now.

 

I confess that I'm selling my current watch (not here, I don't have permission) and looking for the next one: I chose the new 300M in blue and Sedna Gold (as you can see by my avatar). I don't know yet if I'm going with the bracelet or the strap options, but I'm getting ready to "dress" my watch with a very personal touch with some NATO alternatives*.

* that surely explains my previous post

So I don't have the watch yet, and don't have the straps... but I do have pictures

That's because I use (badly) photoshop to create images of the watch I chose, virtually dressed with some NATO options. Original pictures found in the web. If you're interested, I can show them to you.

 

I would love to see some images of your potential watch. The blue and gold looks really good.

 

Ok, you asked for it

Bad quality work, I just intended to verify the matching, not to be photorealistic.

 

I actually have a few pics of my (now sold) SMPc on one of those Haveston’s.
