NATO-Style Watch Straps - BluShark Straps
What Make A NATO-Style Strap?
A NATO-Style watch strap is a durable, military-inspired band originally designed for British soldiers. Characterized by its double-layered design, it features a second strap that loops through the watch’s spring bars and underneath the case, securing the watch even if a spring bar fails. This construction provides extra security and a distinct look with an added keeper to hold the strap in place.
In contrast, single-pass watch straps, as the name suggests, consist of a single piece of material that passes through the spring bars and beneath the watch case just once. This simpler design results in a lower profile on the wrist and typically less bulk compared to the NATO-Style strap.
