I like the watch, but don't understand the strap.

As in you don't know it's a Nato or you don't know why it's a Nato

Probably as in a Nato with 2 loose ends...

Does the strap have two tails?

Jokes on me, don't wear Natos much

I would offer a no-date version, and I would extend the 3, 6 and 9 markers a bit to differentiate them from the other hour markers.

Also, any chance for a sandwich dial or a different dial with a bit more texture to it?

Overall, I think the watch looks really good - well done.

Date at 6 and ND versions would be my preferred options.

I like it. I'd purchase one.

Dimensions?

Bradystraps · Post by **Bradystraps** » Thu Apr 16, 2015 10:08 am

Thank you for all of the input. Much appreciated!

The dimensions will be 43 X 14mm and 22mm lug width. I will be supplying either a Nato or Silicone/Rubber dive strap along with one of my Original Sailcloth straps. The watch will come in a signed zipper travel case similar to the Minesweeper I did last year.

I am exploring options with the sapphire crystals as I want to make sure anything domed isn't to much of a "ding magnet". I am also looking at flat crystals.

More to come soon.

Todd, those are perfect dimensions.

Oh, and I fixed the strap for you....

Double domed with internal AR would be terrific.

Bradystraps · Post by **Bradystraps** » Thu Apr 16, 2015 3:21 pm

L2L dimension will be approx. 49mm. Still nailing that down.

Sounds good. Please don't be tempted to biggie size it.

perfect. Nothing beyond 50mm for a 43mm of this style IMhO. I was hoping for 48 so 49 is great

Now how about
Date at 6 instead of 3
A ND option
Anthracite grey dial maybe?

That'll be all
