Hi all,

I was thinking that my UN wore a little big on my small wrists, so I decided to try it on a Nato strap I had too se if it wore a little smaller.

It does loose some of the features that initially caought my eye with this watch.

First out on rubber:

On the Nato:

The nato strap is begging to grow on me, I like it and its wears a bit smaller. But the rubber with the UN inserts is stunning, even though its wears a bit big on my small wrist.

What do you think? Please share your opinions!

Cheers
Mike

No doubt... rubber UN !

Thanks Francisco, after all that was one of the key features I liked about this watch,
the rubber with the inserts make it stand out a little.

That's a tough one, it looks really good on the rubber, but I think the NATO gives ita really rugged look.

Haha, f*ck, I have to agree with you too. It transforms the watcha little, makes it more subtile.

But hey, I always have the choice to swap them when ever I feel like it.

But I hate beeing undecisive (Spell check on that word, hope you know what I mean)

THank for sharing b16a2

Not that the Nato is a bad idea but... the special rubber strap (with Ti inserts) makes half the watch. If you remove it, you make the U.N. look like a sub :mrgreen:
IMO it looks perfect on your wrist with the rubber.

I don't think the Nato makes it look any smaller on your wrist. They both look about the same to me although the rubber looks better.

Get the SS strap if you can. Otherwise it's rubber. NATO doesn't do it for me. :D

Thanks guys for your opinions! Appreciate it (Spell check on this to :D )

Seems like the general consensus is rubber!

Cheers
