Hello

I am hoping you can help me answering af question regarding the Omega leather nato strap, which I am thimking of getting.

Does any one know the keepers allows you to fold the excess strap (the strap end) back under the keeper, so that it is not flapping about or sticking to far up over the watch case?

If anybody has the strap I would love a picture

I hope my question makes sense.

thank you all in advance

Best regards
Jacob

All you see is strap. Takes away from the watch

Yes you can. That picture has the Watch aligned oddly on the strap. The keeper should align lower on the wrist

Shailor- what do you mean that it takes away from the watch?

Some people are not a fan of the look. Personally I run 2 custom leather NATOs. One black with thick rings. The other matches to my favorite shoes.

Looks great - the speedy is great on leather...
I think of using the brown omega leather nato on my blue ceramic 300 m diver - dont know if it will look great or hopeless😀 but I am gonna try. The great think about the nato is that I can get that one and a black textile one and swap between them so it always matches the outfit😀

I love leather straps and I love NATOs. My only issue is the bulk they add outside the lugs on the loose strap end. I have a 44mm co-axial model so it's already kind of large. Plus I truly love the deployment clasp and that rules out NATOs for me. I've tried a bunch in nylon and couldn't stay with them for long. I always went back to the default black leather strap that came with this watch. The strap that comes closest for me is the ZuluDiver. Part NATO but with mess hardware. WatchGecko has the ZuluDiver in brown leather.
