just sharing, apart from cheapnatostraps, I've recently tried out an order from Blushark straps. Their nato quality feels better too!

You generally do get what you pay for assuming no carrot chop..

My recent NATO hoots were from nomad store SG. I think it's quite good value for the price!

Dunno leh, online recommend Eulit, but it's around $40, haven't add in shipping...
Bought from eBay before but quality so so, slightly better than cheapestnato

Quoting Serious Watches:

It's not a small watch, but it will be comfortable on nearly any wrist and it's well proportioned and balanced.
