Playing with some of my Omega NATOs and curious which looks better on the watch? The blue is a 2016 Olympic release and the Black is from a Speedy.

I personally think this watch looks great on a plain grey nato. The OEM grey is actually really nice but I can’t seem to bring myself to pay so much $$ for what is essentially a $15 strap so I currently rock the generic grey nato. Of your two options though I vote the rio Olympics.

I too couldn’t bring myself to spend $160 plus. I first tried the $10 NATOs, then the “premium” stuff in the $30 range. In the end, Omega’s quality is still better. I still use the cheaper NATOs, but there is a definite quality difference. To put it in perspective, a weeks worth of groceries to feed the teens at home seems to be $200/wk, the NATO will last me years (I still feed them when I buy a NATO 😀

Of the two you posted, I like the blue the best. I have these for my blue:. the first two are Omega and second two are Crown & Buckle.
