Neither metal, nor leather, nor satin, nor shagreen, NATO is the chic and sporty bracelet alternative that has been sweeping through watch collections in recent years. A veritable revival of the 1960s-1970s, when NATO servicemen began wearing nylon watch straps, NATO continues to win over watch lovers and collectors alike.

The reason? Its many qualities, both aesthetic and technical. The special weave of this nylon strap guarantees extreme solidity and optimum comfort. Matching the dial or case, easy to adapt to the wrist, it allows for every color and style. Modern and timeless, it has stood the test of time with panache. Today, it continues to write its legend. NATO isn’t leather, but who doesn’t have it in their skin?

THE SPY WHO LOVED NATO

Nobody escapes NATO fashion. Not even James Bond, whose Omega Seamaster 300 Spectre in a limited edition of 7,007 pieces is extended by a black and grey striped NATO 5 bracelet. Sturdiness and finesse on the wrist with the emblematic model equipped with the Omega Master Co-Axial 8400 caliber.
