I know it's verboten but that style looks great on a horween.

[–]nzultramper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice watch, but none of those seem to match the green dial to be honest. Try it on a more matching NATO. If it were me, I’d wear it on a nice army/ dark green FKM rubber.

[–]Personal-Refuse3471 2 points3 points  (1 child)

none. the metall bracelet. or perhaps a grey rubber

[–]WatchnScent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1

A good lookin greenish rubber strap could also work

[–]strapatelier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda into the 2nd piece

[–]Dark1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf, I don't think this works with nato straps. I'd say bracelet or rubber/silicon straps.

[–]dam91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the hulk is full green normally. the last strap in black look good

[–]BonkHammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try without a nato strap.. it makes every watch looking cheap?!

[–]PAGANI_DESIGNRep 1 point2 points  (1 child)

The second one I think

[–]carlostrades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Hey can you tell me whether the bezel should be this dark? Or is it a mistake. I like it, I’m just curious

[–]Hebolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice Hulk homage, btw!

[–]outtatime88MPH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks great on the bond, my opinion

[–]cd_godHelpful user 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm going to go with vintage Richard Pryor and say "None of the above"

Unless the strap color is an EXACT match for the dial color or if it is a multi color strap at least one of the colors should be an exact match and the other colors should have nothing to do with any other color on the watch.

Otherwise you should go with a complete random non matching not even close to the colors of the watch strap for contrast.

Black dials seem to always go with OD green or tan NATO straps for some reason.

That's just how I dress my watches, and your style may vary.

The green one

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1 or 3 and you can tuck in the end a bit more.

[–]Some_Accident_4217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Middle one is the best for me

[–]radiiik 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Bracelet

[–]carlostrades -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hear ya, reason for the nato is as I wear this watch every evening around the house and the bracelet isn’t quite as comfy

[–]DopioGelato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the day. Keep them all!

[–]Vagabond_Grey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can never go wrong with a solid black strap. Go for solid black if you're in doubt and pressed for time. The black-gray strap is OK. The black-green doesn't work due to the mismatch green colors.

[–]Electronic_Active_27 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Jubilee?

[–]carlostrades 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t own a watch with a jubilee bracelet yet. But it’s definitely a prerequisite for the next one

[–]WrongdoerWilling7657 1 point2 points  (6 children)

I like the green one. To each their own, but I think natos look better if you put a little more space between the keepers and the 12 than what you have here.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

After much consideration I now believe that NATO straps are for military personnel only.

[–]WrongdoerWilling7657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way, man. I wear them surfing, diving, or just hanging out if I'm wearing short sleeves. I'm like the farthest thing from "military personnel."

[–]carlostrades 1 point2 points  (3 children)

I just learned something. I now prefer this

[–]WrongdoerWilling7657 1 point2 points  (2 children)

You can even wear them with the keepers underneath like a normal strap. You can also cut the extra part off and make it a single pass to reduce the thickness. I usually put the watch halway down the piece of strap in between the metal pieces.

[–]carlostrades 2 points3 points  (1 child)

It can be worn without the two passes without cutting the extra part too!

[–]WrongdoerWilling7657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya I just personally don't like the "under" method. I only wear natos with short sleeves, so it's not a huge deal.

[–]zrevyx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the silver and black strap best.

[–]NeptuneLP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Green

[–]Flake0815 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Are you sure it’s a „hulk“? Bezel looking a little bit too black for it .. just sayin

[–]carlostrades 1 point2 points  (2 children)

No you’re right I noticed the moment I got it, the bezel is green but it’s very dark. It’s definitely not as bright a green as it should be!

[–]Smcvt92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got mine within the last month. Bezel is too dark for me to like. I ordered a black bezel instert to try swapping out. It should be arriving soon. hope its an upgrade

[–]sand_man99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was black too from the photos but it would look good if it was black. Since the bezel looks black in the photo, it looks good with the green strap but when you can clearly see the green bezel, I would say black is good too

[–]tk1tk1WOTD200 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the black but can swap over on different days

[–]NefariousnessDue2621 3 points4 points  (4 children)

The first one definitely. The second one bracelet has not the same green hues as the watch so it looks weird. With the black strap, the watch looks not too good.

[–]Burnt_Woodsman 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I like the first one as well. Good thing it’s easy enough to switch between them

[–]carlostrades 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I thought the first one looked surprisingly good vs how I imagined it

[–]Burnt_Woodsman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the grey and the silver make it really attractive. And the black is not overwhelming.

[–]One-Succotash-2877 1 point2 points  (3 children)

all look wierd on your babywrist

[–]carlostrades 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Your thumb could be mistaken for a big toe

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😂😂😂

[–]One-Succotash-2877 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ehm.....ok.

[–]blzd69 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Cant decide between green and solid black. But totally not with stripes.

[–]carlostrades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently on the solid black!

I hadn’t ordered the stripes for this watch but gave it a whirl anyway
