NATO straps are a practical way to customize the look of a watch. A NATO watch strap is a single piece of material that slips between the watch face’s lugs, under the caseback, doubling back on itself, and secures by way of a buckle closure. Because of the “caseback double-back,” the watch stays centered and secure on the wrist. Even if one of the lugs were to fail, the watch would remain on the band.
NATO straps are easy to put onto your watch. How to install a NATO strap:
1. Remove the existing band.
2. Remove the spring bars from the strap that was just removed from the watch.
3. Reinsert the spring bars into the holes in the lugs, using a spring bar tool as needed.
4. Pull the long end of the NATO strap out of the metal loop holding the two pieces together.
5. Slide the long end of the strap down between the spring bar and the watch case, with the short side of the strap facing away and the buckle facing up.
6. Thread the same long side back up through the bottom spring bar, between the pin and the case.
7. Pass the long side back through the metal loop on the short side.
8. Enjoy your new NATO strap!
