• Hey a few of you helped a lot before, and I went for a Hamilton Field Mechanical. Thanks for the help! The only thing I really miss is the date, but it just wasn’t going to happen.
    I’m now wondering how to wash the NATO strap as it has leather bits on it. Can I chuck it in the wash or do I need to do the old toothbrush and soapy water?

  • Hamilton Field Mechanical... ...really miss is the date... ...wasn’t going to happen.

    What you end up with?

  • how precious of the strap are you?

    I would chuck it in the wash and see what happens, if nothing else it's a good reason to buy a new strap or 3

    Pop it in a protective laundry bag and wash it with an antibacterial additive.

    Edit: oh, just saw the leather bit. Maybe by hand in the sink with an antibacterial additive and toothbrush on the nylon, and then some leather care stuff on the leather bits after to stop it drying out.
