Good looking piece. Since I've discovered single layer NATOs, I've ditched bracelets.
In used to be there, but have found that some watches just do not look right with a nato strap. My Bell-Matic is one as well as my cheapo Steeldive

I can't speak for GED, but I really don't care about looks, but only comfort and security, and no matter what watch, it would wear such a strap, as any other would have the watch not worn for not meeting those two objectives for me....Rolex, Omega, nice gold dress watch, it would wear a one-piece with highest level of comfort for me and least tendency to scratch other possessions....yes, barbarians are within the gates, ooog.

Where have you been? I was starting to worry you'd Hiberniated yourself after the show....or maybe went to Barbados, almost as bad.
Barbados is beautiful and one of the few atlantic caribbean islands where I never thought I was going get shanked if I wasn’t watching my six, but it’s on the more expensive side. The Crane hotel is very nice and the rocky cliffs surrounding the beach is fantastic. One of these days i will return.

I rarely dress up. My idea of dressing up is either being in my class A uniform or my best pair of blue jeans and a nice Oxford shirt. I do not own a suit, nor do I want one. So the NATO straps work fine for me.

Why don't you just stop messing around and go for uncured animal skins like me?....no, wait, that's my skin... man, getting old is the pits, it's like being out of the fridge too long and going bad. Now, about that strap thing, I'd figure you for using a bracelet to dress it up a bit for rare times needed, while it would be a bit airish day in Hades before I went to the trouble of messing with spring bars just to change the look of my watch, and this is coming from a guy who is picky and showers four times a month, needed or not.

The very few times I had to wear a suit, I had to special order it from Omar the tent maker.

I was reaching for a name and out that popped, and it lovely most everywhere down there, the entire chain, if you can ignore the people...hit most of them when young as far as Dominica, and later hit Grenada as part of a sorta Monroe Doctrine teaching experience. Loved all of it, except the Monroe Doctrine thing. Hiberniated quite a bit down there, everyone knowing God created whiskey to keep the Irish from conquering the world while I made do with rum.
