- Why You're Wearing Your Nato Strap Wrong (and How To Fix It)
This is how you should wear your watch with a nato strap:
Simply move the the watch furhter down the nato strap so it sits in the middle. Now if you put the watch on, you will have the chunk of the strap un the bottom of your wrist, resulting in a better balance, and for me, a more comfortable wearing experiecne. Try it out for a day! At first, I wasn't convinced either...

Definitely getting a NATO again, I stopped wearing mine because I hated the bulk on the outside no matter how much i tried to convince myself it was cool
Good point about using shoulderless spring bars to avoid chafing NATO straps.
It's as close as you can get to fixed spring bars without having actual fixed spring bars haha
I happen to be wearing my nato strap in this configuration as I watch this.
Interesting! I never even thought about this. Very cool, now I can wear it two ways :D thanks mate!
Criticism of the NATO strap is totally unjustified. Cutting the extra strap defeats the purpose of keeping the watch away from the wrist to allow ventilation and lessen sweating. Also the watch can be stowed by reverse looping and it provides substantial cover for the front and back of the watch when kept with other items in the bag or pocket. It's the ultimate utilitarian strap.
This is how I wear them too
That's exactly what I do, but I don't cut anything. 😂
The black strap is better because there's no spring bar on the buckle.
I like this method but those extra holes punch on the inner side of the wrist annoys me so i ordered few nato which comes with less hole punches.
That’s a badass watch. The one with the Anchor. What brand is that?
That's a Vostok Komandirskie! It's a Russian watch from a brand started in the Soviet Union. If you are interested, check out their Amphibia watches, which are water resistant and made out of stainless steel (mine is cheaper and is made out of brass). They cost around 100usd and are a good value in my opinion. Many claim the quality has gotten worse in the last years, so you might find a good deal on an older one second hand, which is why I did. Mine costed 20usd!!
I hate leather straps because they smell when you sweat in the summer.
what about fraying of the holes ? any recommendations ?
I haven't used my nato straps long enough for that to be a problem. Maybe you can fix it with heat, but you could easily damage the strap by accident, so I don't really know...
Military don't frick around, well mine (😌) don't 😌
Thank you. This help me so much. My wrist feel more comfortable.⏱❤
