Just remember don’t change it over a big rock
😂
the reference 😂
Too soon?
Ouch, that's cold.
Savage!
I will never remove the strap pins to put a strap! It is nonsense….
It's necessary if you want to avoid premature strap wear and tear, particularly on softer weaves and with watches where the pins are too close to the case.
Seriously. Just feed it in at a perpendicular angle to the case.
What? He just said to remove so you don’t accidentally scratch the strap fabric
@@GerardBarkandJackthat literally never happened stfu!
@@pineapplegamer6986lol yeah I’m scared to scratch a rugged watch strap yeah right buddy I bought this strap to abuse because that’s what it’s meant for. If you want to baby something then a fancy exotic leather strap would be great for you
After years and years I still prefer a regular strap, or a bracelet, or rubber or…
Yeah I don’t get the nato hype either
I leave the wrapping on mine so it doesn't scuff during everyday use
When will we get the review to that Mark XX though?
Nice one dude!
Brilliant strap Mate
Why exactly is it brilliant? How could it be more basic/worse?
CWC owners, avoid first step ;)
There are two types of people in this world. Gubbins on the side as in the video or, like myself and James Bond gubbins underneath.
You beat me to it. I was going to say the same thing.
Over and under, as Bond wears his in Goldfinger. Is definitely the way to go.
Gubbins underneath always.
Maaadre, nunca he visto complicarse tanto para colocar una nato.
Don’t drop it and smash the crystal
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Not doing it over a rock is always a good idea 😩Bark & Crack 😬
For some odd reason I'm now looking for Nato straps.
We've got a nice selection at Bark and Jack!
@@GerardBarkandJack now that's good looking out.
What is the name and the reference number of the watch which in the video feedback will be helpful thank you
I don't understand why there aren't just small natos that don't have this stupid folding back excess material that you'll never use. I like Nato except this part :/
Crown & Buckle Chevron Strap... you are welcome
As a heathen that folds the extra strap inwards, I didn't realize that's what the floating keepers were for. TIL!
I fold in as well, much neater. Have done for years. 🤷🏻♂️
The nato tail reminds me of a "man bun" which makes a totally good looking watch look unkempt.
lovely strap! which is this exact model? i love it
Is it better to use curved or straight spring bars with nato straps? How do you prevent spring bar failure?
You can't prevent it, either while using a strap or a bracelet, but thats the whole purpose of a two-pass strap. If a bar fails you won't lose your watch.
I've never personally liked the curved spring bars, but I know people who use them, each to their own I guess.

Do you recommend a certain spring bar?
We typically recommend that you use the OEM springbars for your watch. There are a lot of poor quality aftermarket springbars out there.
Nobody wears a NATO strap over a flightsuit !
I’ll let my dad know he was doing it wrong. And the pilots who send me wrist shots. 👍🏻
I’ve been admiring watches and everything about them for over 35 years. The one I can’t understand is the addition of a nato strap. It’s a detractor. Sorry.
I have my Longines Steel Bigeye on a B&J Green Nato. Looks the dogs boll*cks. Just saying……
What a combo! 🔥
I will never remove the spring bars for a nato strap
On some watches it’s not needed, like Tudor, Seiko, Hamilton. But others will just scuff the strap.
You have a really skinny wrist to have that much eft
I always feel like buying from you and then remember brexit.... ☹️
Yes, Brexit sucks when sending items to the EU. We've potentially got a way to help with this, though. Working behind the scenes!
what? nooooooooo
If u have have that much 'massive length' left then you have a 4" wrist width !
I don’t find NATO straps to be attractive at all.
Adrian Barker, This made me laugh so hard, thanks for sharing!
What was funny
That's the wrong way to fit a NATO sorry😅
Sorry Adrian but they look awful and pin buckles are last century and unsafe for watches.
The only good thing is there is no gap, but that is just all the more reason to spend more on fitted straps.
Do it properly and have fixed lugs.
There also needs to be better straps for fixed lugs. They could be more substantial with a deployant clasp.
Looks hideous lol
Nato straps are ugly.
IWC is possibly the most boring watch brand on the planet. Sorry for the rant, but it has to be said.
There is beauty in simplicity! I personally love the IWC Mark series. Makes for an excellent everyday watch.
Great watch movements though
Haha luckily taste is different for different people. I absolutely love this watch but yes, objectively it is quite boring 😅
If you have the mindset of a 12 year old boy - yes.
Well, the boring watches are the ones that most people gravitate to eventually, Rolex explorer\submariner and iwc mark series.
You should look at iwc Portugeisers and perpetual calendars as they have a lot more interesting dials
