NATO Straps – robust, functional and colorful

NATO straps are one-piece watch straps made of high-quality nylon , originally developed for the British military. Their distinguishing feature is that the strap is threaded under the watch , ensuring the watch stays securely on the wrist even if the spring bar is loosened. This makes NATO straps extremely robust, suitable for everyday wear, and ideal for sports, leisure, and outdoor activities. Alternative names for a NATO strap include G10 strap (historically derived from the G1098 form) and nylon pass-through strap or pass-through strap (as a general description of the material and function). The term regimental strap is also used, although there are differences in construction, as it consists of a single strip of fabric and does not provide additional securing for the watch.
