I've got the "v5" nato strap as well. I think the quality is quite good. I have no idea what the Gen nato is like, but compared to cheapie natos I've purchased from Amazon, this is way better. It seems much softer.

How is the quality of the nato strap from ZF?

The buckle and keepers are great. Mixture of high polish and brush. The canvas? is much better than the 1st ones supplied with the Bronze Black Bay. It's slightly thicker and holes are heat sealed.

It's the light. Hands and indices matches.

I'd really like to know the difference between the v4 and the v5 as well. PureTime's description in their newsletter doesn't really help either. I'm probably going to pull the trigger either way... as soon as the Chinese holiday is over, but I'm really curious if someone can see the difference with the v5.

I'm also wondering why there's still no Black Bay Dark rep? Seems like it should be easy for the factories to produce a PVD version with a black dial. I'd definitely purchase that too if it was available.

So I ended up ordering a "V5" from InTime, at least that's what I asked Ryan to get for me. I'm pretty sure it's just a V4 but they include the Nato. I can't see any other differences, and InTime updated their site to include the Nato, but they're still calling it a V4.

Either way, I love the watch. It looks and feels great.

I have a v4 red (that I am absolutely in love with) and I can't see a single difference other than the nato strap (though I quite liked the leather one that came with the v4)..and I am pretty sure that's it. I am planning on ordering a blue one also (that one is not as popular at all...I haven't even found any decent reviews on it so if anyone knows one, please guide me to that post or share your knowledge:))
