IWL Anniversary NATO - Discussion Thread

[Perseus]

Can we do a wafer thin leather nato with IWL embossed into it instead ?

Excellent idea! I don't really have a good watch for a gray, yellow, and white Nato.

I like #1

[Strange]

Are these gonna be true two-strap NATOs or single-strap Zulus? If the former, 3 buckle or 5 buckle?

Love this idea!

And for the record, the only watches I own that I wear on a NATO have 20mm lugs.

Also, do you do NATO straps in 12" length that Maratac does or the more common 11" that most people seem to do?

Raza, all the newest straps we added are 12" length. Check the "New Arrivals" collection on our site for the 12's. We have had high demand for these so we are probably going to do all our future stock in this length.

Probably a one-piece NATO unless there is significant demand for something else.

I definitely prefer the 1-piece RAF style

From what I understand, this is an example of an RAF NATO strap:


This is a standard NATO:
