My son's baseball team uses the throwback Astros colors, consisting primarily of orange and blue with some white and yellow. Im looking for a watch to go with a nato strap like:

or

Ive thought about some reps - Omega Speedmaster triple date is one Ive always had an interest in but its harder to find, if at all possible. Thought about an orange Sinn, and would look at a Bamford-style sub or gmt with blue or orange markings.

I am not averse to gen either - like Seikos, Citizens, Casio or whatever. Ive had an orange monster though and I didnt feel that one. Let me know what you guys can come up with.

Nothing beats that Tudor IMHO.
Anyway the color scheme reminds me of some Tag Monaco, though I'm not sure they would work with a nato.

The Monaco you're thinking of has the Gulf colours which use a light blue. I doubt they would suit a nato either.

Also check out the Cousteau Divers from IWC. They have one rep with blue and orange in it.

Yeah, you're right, not a great advice :)

I must say +1 for the Cousteau divers, very nice and color scheme seems close.

I have the black and white 2006 CD, which I like. I also like the IWC aquatimers, faults and all, but they arent around too often.

CD is a good suggestion, as is the UN. That PO GMT would be good if the blue color was better. I mean good choice, just not a great watch IMO.
