Great looking band. Excellent finish , seat belt like texture. Far superior than any other nato strap brand. 4 stars because after owning the strap less than 6 months, and with very minimal use ( I have 8 other varied BluShark straps) the holes are fraying and deformity ! Will be testing out their Semi -Famous warranty tommororw. Will shoot them a message and images and see if they will respect their claim. Will keep updating accordingly.

I have a Seiko Diver’s 200 meter “Save The Ocean” face, automatic wrist watch. It’s not expensive, but it works well and I think it’s a real good looking level of watch. It’s the only Auto I have, so I wear it almost everyday to keep it wound. After I changed the original silicone/rubber ish strap/band to a metal bracelet, I’ve worn worn it several years with the metal bracelet. After so many years, I wanted a change. I’ve used Blu Shark NATO straps on others wrist watches I have. I love the soft feel of the alpha premier. The wide range of colors, designs suits me. The extra height from a NATO strap isn’t an issue with me. I had one of the BluShark straps from a previous purchase start to fray. After a little phone con with BluShark, they honored their lifetime warranty. Sure, they’re tons of watch straps out there, but I like the buy 2 get one free, so if I want a different look for whatever reason, having 3 comfort straps works for me. I like em.

A++ looks great very comfortable.

I ordered a polished one and got brushed. The quality is good, it’s expensive but worth it. Just wish I had gotten the right one.
William J.
Quality was just as good as I thought it would be. Super smooth and feels high quality!
Adam H.
I’m very pleased with my new strap. I wear it with my black faced Islander and it looks great.
Chris J.
Not a bad strap... comfortable and fits the lugs well
Brendan P.
Soft and shiny. This was spendy but the sliding keeper and feel were worth the extra expense IMO.
Karl L.
I own nylon watch straps from several companies and 3 continents, the Alpha Priemer is my new favorite. Silky smooth and soft it's like a silk kimono for you wrist. Outstanding quality and with the "buy 3 and get 2" deal it's easily worth the money!
Teng C.
Highly Recommended!!!
Good Quality!!!
Brian
This is my second Blushark strap and once again it didn't disappoint. It is an excellent quality and very comfortable. I highly recommend these straps.
Nick M.
Bought this for a Mido Ocean Star GMT. The look, feel, and quality are amazing. It made the big dive watch a pleasure to wear vs the original two piece band that came one the watch. I’m blown away.
Trung B.
Fantastic, comfortable, and stylish strap that compliments a black dial perfectly. Love it!
Trung
Soft and comfortable strap. Great addition to any strap collection and comparatively, BluShark probably has the best quality of all the strap companies I've tried out. Definitely pleased with my purchase.
Johnny W.
It's my first time purchasing watch straps and it is awesome! Very comfortable.
Nathan S.
Very comfortable!
Andy W.
I'm disappointed with my nato strap, it has started to fray, it doesn't look like it will last very long, I've tried using a lighter on it but it hasn't made much difference, threads keep fraying.
Chris T.
The Alphashark is a high quality strap for a reasonable price. I’m very happy with these NATO straps, and have reordered different colors and models, and not regretting any of them. You will not be disappointed with BluShark straps.
Matthew D.
The overall quality of the strap is great, as I expect from Blushark. I do wish that the straps were at least another 1/2 - 3/4 inch longer. I barely have enough slack to tuck in the end and I feel like the slightest snag on a shirt cuff would make it come out of the keeper. My wrists aren't exactly huge (7.25") either. Second, I wish that Blushark would make one-piece buckles that don't use a spring bar. Having a spring bar is just another point of failure.
Erik K.
Love the strap. Comfortable to wear and looks great on the wrist.
Wade P.
I like the fit, simplicity, and initial comfort of this watch band very much.
Time will tell the tale of enduring quality, but with the vast selection of bands to choose from, it may be difficult to have one on the watch long enough to wear it out!
Jorge A.
High quality feels and looks amazing
Ross H.
I love the quality of the premium brushed buckle, feels very solid and well made. The texture of the AlphaPremier strap is perfect. Super comfortable, I wear mine all day long, day and night without any issues. Really liking this bond strap on my Komandirskie.
Joseph C.
I've purchased a number of Blushark watch straps and have always loved them. The hardware on this one as it is on all my blueshark straps was great. My problem is with the material itself. I ordered the strap Marsh 1st, and received it quickly - today is April 4th. With one month of daily wear the strap is already fraying. The material is very soft and supple which makes it comfortable, but that softness also makes it not as tough, as best as I can figure. My regular blushark strap I have worn for several years and while I've gotten tehm dirty they've never frayed. When I replace this strap [which I fear will be soon] I'll replace it with a regular blushark. If you need soft for comfort - this strap is it. If you need a strap that lasts I'd get the original.
Paul D.
Great comfy band! No complaints!
Nikola P.
I read about the brand on a forum and decided to give it a try. This strap is a replacement for a similar style from a different maker for my Omega Planet Ocean. When it arrived, I was very pleased with the overall quality and feel of the material. The hardware's polished finish was perfect. The strap looks and feels first class. I have no regrets about it and will add more in the future.
Bryan
I have one of the original straps on an old seiko 7002, but I decided to splurge for a better one for my new Vaer diver. It’s extremely soft and comfortable.
Jonathan V.
My first BluShark strap. Went with the AlphaPremier Bond strap. Compliments my SKX well. Only downside is sizing holes started to fray almost immediately. Otherwise, very comfortable.
Michael N.
Love the material and the hardware is first rate!
Terry S.
Blue shark is the best, i have many straps. If you are looking for a nato, stop searching. Blueshark is where you want to go , just do it . Also their watch coozie, little watch protectors that you store your watches. Throw a few of them in your cart while your at it, they are awsome.
C. D.
Works with the PAM104 much better than the original strap.
Jared R.
Very soft, high quality strap. Highly recommend
Brian N.
This is a fantastic strap. Excellent quality and very comfortable. The perfect match for my San Martin
Joshua D.
These are simply perfect. high Quality, thin, and incredibly comfortable.
Martin A.
Very nice, dresses up my Citizen.
Sean C.
High quality, soft nylon material. Solid and precise stitching. Nice brushed hardware. Looks great on my custom Seiko MM300 Seamaster.
Paul F.
Great looking and feeling strap. Well worth the price.
Yu Jun L.
Superb quality and very comfortable to wear! Highly recommended.
Micheau N.
Le bracelet est magnifique, au-delà de ce que j’espérais. Je referais une commande, c’est certain.
JastinKyle A.
Very comfortable, exceeded expectations. Material is very durable as well:)) Looks great on my Tudor Black Bay
Jonathan P.
Very high quality strap! Feels soft as silk yet as strong as a seat belt.
Matthias F.
Awesome quality and very comfortable. Exactly what I was looking for.
TONY L.
Great Quality Nato Strap A+
Paul G.
High quality strap, with great materials and finish!
Andrew G.
Very soft, love the construction. I was afraid it would not go small enough to fit my wrist, but I still have 3 more holes smaller.
Thomas H.
More casual look and very comfortable.
David H.
You can definitely feel the quality of the material. Feels great on the wrist!
Daniel S.
I like the strap but, I think it should be available in more than one length. I have a smaller wrist and the length is way too long. I know I can just tuck it in at the end, but why should I have to do that. I should be able to just order one that fits my size wrist with a few extra notches either way for leeway. Not everyone has a fat or skinny wrist for that matter. Also the area where the metal part of the band latches is on the side of my wrist instead of in the middle if the underside so it feels strange and looks un-even. I have other Nato bands that came with my Seiko's and there is no extra to tuck in and the metal clasp is in the middle where it is supposed to be. To tell, the truth I wish I could just return it but I tried to cut the extra part off at the end and messed it up and now it's not even usable! If I could order have ordered it in my size or maybe have some sort of kit to cut the extra off that would be good also. Sorry, but I'm not satisfied, because I ended up throwing it away.
STEVE M.
I got the strap for the new CWC Mellor 72, manual windup, which is an exact reproduction of a military watch that CWC supplied to the British military starting in 1972. The blue and gray Bond strap really looks great on this watch.
Nick J.
Beautiful strap that is more comfortable then anything else I have tried. Worth every penny1
Tommy T.
Looks great with a black field watch
Bryan N.
I am not a fan of bracelets so immediately bought a NATO for my latest watch purchase. Installation was easy and the material is very comfortable. I’ll be getting 3 more shortly!
Chenghan W.
Light and strong
Michael J.
This is a fantastic Nato strap. I have 10 others from Blue Shark, but they are all the alpha shark series....I still love them for ruggedness. But this series is a little thinner, and much more comfortable material...very soft with the slightest stretch to it. I wear the others backpacking, etc. with weekend watches, but this Premier gives my omega a very nice classy look.
Charlie B.
Wonderful band. Soft, great looking.
Scott C.
Material awesome, way it wears awesome, top quality, but a little short in length on material. If your wrist is over 7.5 inches unfortunately these don’t wear the way you want them too!
Anthony S.
One of my most comfortable natos
Michael R.
I was looking for a nice NATO strap to go with my Suunto watch and BluShark had exactly what I was looking for.
My benchmark is my Omega Seamaster NATO strap and I added it here for comparison. The comfort is definitely on par with my Seamaster and the quality is really good, however you can see that the weave is precise on the Seamaster and has a ripple on the BluShark.
Ultimately I’m exceptionally pleased as the strap suits my Suunto perfectly and it would be ridiculous to spend as much on a strap as I did for the watch!
Ryan K.
Very soft material. The classic Bond color looks great. Well worth the restock wait
Aleksandar P.
Really satisfied with quality and build of the strap, amazing!
Eric
So far so good. Feels great on the wrist and holding up quite well. Fits perfect, even on my 8" wrist.
Jeremiah H.
A little more than a month of wearing the NATO strap AlphaPremier Bond strap and there have been obvious wear and tear of the eyelets and ends of the strap. The quality of the strap looks good but it is no where near high quality seatbelt nylon material. Very disappointed in the lack of durability of the built quality. Probably could get it for cheaper somewhere else.
Julien S.
That band is so smooth, I don't even feel it on my wrist. I lilke that it's 1.2 mm thick, making my watch sit closer on my wrist. I use it on my Seiko SNK809. My wrist is 6.25 in and I'm on the 1st hole.
Haim C.
Straps are all very nice, but delivery time is far too long ....
Chang Pyo M.
Silky smooth as explained.
Good feeling of weariness.
Henrik B.
If you really want to treat yourself with some luxury, then buy BluShark straps, period.
The AlphaShark Bond is out-of-the-box softand smooth as silk.
I have never felt any strap so nice to wear right away.
The shine on the strap when buying AlphaShark straps is miles above the ones you get on a average straps.
No sharp edges on the strap or loose threads sticking out from the holes.
The brushed metal buckle is thick with a high quality feeling.
I kick myself for buying 3 or more cheap straps, for the price of this one.
Chris B.
Great quality and very soft and comfortable. The band feels more like high quality cotton than nylon.
Mohamed H.
Loving the straps! Top notch quality at a reasonable price. My only gripe would be the waiting time but understandable due to the distance. Would recommend the brand.
John B.
I originally purchased an AlphaShark strap, but I purchased a 22mm when I needed a 24mm strap. That mistake turned out to be a blessing. I returned it, and ordered two AlphaShark Premier straps, which meant the third strap was free. IMHO, the Premier straps are far better than the AlphaShark straps, and definitely worth the price difference. The Premier strap is smoother, and less bulky. Also, it seems to be longer, and whereas I was having difficulty tucking the excess strap under the keeper on the AlphaShark, there was sufficient length and flexibility with the Premier strap to make that a non-issue.
These straps are comfortable, well made, and well worth the cost. I'll be buying more in the future.

The Alphapremier strap is pretty awesome. The slim profile helps with smaller watches particularly and also allows the end to tuck in neatly and much easier than the thicker varieties. The quality is top-notch. Highly recommend it to others.
Maciej K.
I ordered some Orca straps in the past and was very happy with them. This time I decided to go with something more expensive, expecting even better quality, and I am NOT disappointed at all. Although Orca straps are way cheaper, AlphaPremier's price is completely excused, taking the quality and comfort into consideration :)
Mario R.
Great strap, totally changed the look of my watch.
Ryan B.
By far the most comftorble strap I own
Joe M.
Great strap, excellent quality. The customer service was awesome as well.
Steve M.
Top is the Alpha, bottom is the Premium. Alpha is more expensive but is terrible compared to the lower priced version.
Karl B.
One of the smoothest, most comfortable NATOs money can buy, and certainly the best value on the market. Coloring is beautiful, hardware is substantial, and the strap requires no break-in whatsoever. Love it!
harmon w.
great quality watch band
Don M.
Superb quality, silky smooth comfort.
Michael B.
This Nato's are gorgeous!
Don M.
Superb quality! Best NATOs on the market.
Andrew B.
I purchased five straps, they are very comfortable, look great and are plenty long enough for my eight inch wrist. They just about slide between the spring bars and case of my 16600 Sea Dweller, any thicker and the strap probably wouldn't fit. I am very happy and would definitely buy from Blushark again.
Jardy O.
Seems like a high quality strap and very comfortable.
Marian C.
Alpha Premier Straps are really good quality. I enjoy wearing all five of them.
I highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed.
THANK YOU JOE!
Jesse K.
So far this is the best Nato strap I've tried, the Bond look suited my Seiko SPB051 dive watch nice plus it's super light weight and comfortable. Wish I ordered more of these straps, I'll definitely be getting a few more for my other watches!
Chang Ming C.
Good Quality. Comfortable surface
Stephane Y.
Extremely soft fabric. Didn't understand the craze for nato strap until I got my hands on this
Alvis S.
This is the best nato strap I’ve found so far. It’s far better in every way compared to alpha shark. If you’re on the fence with the premier I’d say it’s worth the purchase.
Robert B.
These straps are beautiful. It's so comfortable on my wrist and really sets off the simple face of this Tissot Heritage Petite Seconde. First rate strap. It's wonderfully thin and really makes a statement. Unconditionally recommend.
Brandon H.
The most comfortable NATO strap I've ever wore. Very soft yet very strong. And the brushed hardware that's on it is awesome!! Will order many more from Blushark!!!
Nir B.
Love the feel and look of the premier line, its a bit thinner and softer.
I ordered 3 straps (1 premier, 2 alphas), premier feels much nice and smoother.
HOWEVER, the premier one seems to have a little bit of fray in the grey color which I had to cut/pull out.. so just wasn't as perfect as I expected it to be compared to the alpha shark.
It is my first nato so I am not used to the fit yet, but makes it feel a bit high profile and bulky (I do have small wrists though..).
Paul B.
Blue Shark recently came out with a thin strap line. Same excellent quality materials with a thinner strap for the right watch and application.
Stephen L.
As soon as I pulled it out of the box, I was in love with it. Then I put it in my watch and was blown away by how good it looks. Amazing!!!
Guanting X.
A perfect strap! Would be even better if the fraying problem is solved
Darryl P.
Quality & finish are on point.
Looks great. Happy I chose BluShark for this purchase.
Tanato P.
The quality is really good, both the texture of the fabric and the hardware have impressed me. Unfortunately it's not suitable for wrists smaller than 6", I'll have to create a new hole on to suit my wrist.
