Where I need to be.
Gen Spectre nato (mounted) vs rep one.
A picture says it all, the gen is a lot more finely woven and smooth to the touch.

Crap. Now it's even more important to get a gen nato or bracelet. The rep nato becomes an instant tell since it's unlikely that a gen owner would downgrade to a cheap strap

How did you get the SPECTRE NATO? To my knowledge the boutiques don't sell them separately.

I had a local friend who bought the gen off eBay. The seller had another for sale and a few emails back and forth took care of the matter. :)

Mine more or less went straight through, just a couple of hours. I did have to pay extra vat on it though, are you sure there are not any extra charges to pay that are holding it up. With DHL I got a text and email to pay the extra £3 some odd.

I have asked the dealer and he stated his typical translator-like answer - ,,yes don't need pay fees"

I just hope to get a letter about confiscation real soon, so they can send me a refund... I really love this watch rep but now I know it was a huge mistake to buy it.

The gen strap width seems to be listed as 20mm. It fits the rep watch very nicely in my opinion.

[MENTION=116397]Macko[/MENTION] Patience buddy, patience. You bought from Toro and paid for transshipping. The watch is in Spanish customs atm, so its not your problem. You will get the watch eventually.

By the way, to get thing clear for once and for al. I just received my Omega nato. It is 21.5mm so it will probably fit the Spectre perfectly

Can't decide between this and the Pilot type 20! I know they are different, but damn!

So just to pile onto the lug width discussion - I received my V2 watch with the Nato (which is not as crappy as I expected...lol). I purchased from Ryan and the bracelet is backordered till the 16tt of Jan. In the mean time, I prefer the polished center links on the Seamaster 300 version, so at the time of my order (and before the new width was discovered) I bought a Seamaster bracelet to have in addition to the brushed bracelet that comes with the watch. Of course now that I received it, the width difference is confirmed. So I have a bracelet I cannot use. I will likely put it up for sale on the parts board if anyone with a V1 watch likes the polished centerlink bracelet.

The watch looks great BTW. Ryan and Intime's service was fantastic and the DHL got it from Hong Kong to Seattle in 2 days (I was shocked). Also keep in mind that is accounting for the dateline and time difference, but it left the morning of the 28th and delivered to my house the afternoon of the 29th.

No kidding. The gen nato strap looks fantastic. The rep bracelet is fine though. It will look as good as the gen once it's brushed.
