The more I see your post, the more I feel like changing to Nato for my sub:)
Can swap around freely. Try it, it's fun. Match your shoes, clothes, bag...etc. Nylon for more casual vibe, leather for more dressed-up feel, different textures, colors...



Seems like showing alot of thigh is the new trend on watch thread!
It seems the people who show thigh like to use NATO straps on sports Rolexes...

I seldom wear the Tag Heuer Link, cos frankly, I don't like it. But I will never be without it.

My wife bought it for me, long before we got married. At the time, the only watch I had was the Monaco. Of course, I love her for it. I still can't believe what she paid for it then could have easily bought a Rolex Sub.

At the time, I knew nothing about watches. But even then, I thought the bracelet let down the watch. It is just too dramatic looking. Too stylized, if you will. I wore it for many years, rotating it with the Monaco. It is quite beat up.

I broke the movement before, and the repair cost me $1.5k. I was winding it and I guess I did it too quickly and felt a snap, then it broke.

The dial itself is pleasant enough. The bracelet although ugly, is actually very sturdy, comfortable and secure. The El Primero movement is certainly good looking.

So, my wife bought me 2 watches in my life. This one and the Linde Werdelin. Both not what I would have bought for myself, but I love them.

I agree with you cbs... the bracelet on old TH link is too drama-mama...

The recent versions look much better.
