• I've just had a strap from the strap tailor as well. He made this one for me. Lots of customisation at no extra cost although it was still reasonably expensive. Nicely padded and well made apparently the leather for mine is usually reserved for 6k handbags. Looking at it vs my 2 stitch i prefer the 20-18mm taper the the 20-16mm on this. I thought his nato looked great for the money but @Gibi wasn't impressed with the material. I'm still looking for the perfect nato and if i get time today I'm going to enquire about an olive gold/red Ranger nato for my bb. If you order from the strap tailor try code tst10 at the checkout.

    I concur with you review of the NATO straps from the strap tailor.

    I have received two straps and both have a audible tinkle noise of the rollers moving around, the navy one is slightly worse. Granted, only I would probably hear that noise but it’s enough to annoy me.

    Also the NATO it came with, while not my style, is a thicker, more pleasing material and you can pass the strap under the buckle before securing under the two further ‘keepers’ (no idea of the actual name) see photos - this feels more secure and I prefer this type of security.

  • Yes, its a bit flimsy but it’s also cheap so can’t complain about it.
    It’s still an OK strap - using it on my seiko.
