Watch straps are the bands that secure your watch to the wrist. Wristbuddys can make a huge difference in the look and feel of a watch. They come in a variety of materials and can be customized to fit your unique style. Leather watch straps are popular due to their durability and versatility. They also provide a classic look that is timeless and transcends fashion trends. When choosing a leather watch strap, it is important to consider the material and stitching quality. A strap with poorly done stitching is likely to fail quickly. Alternatively, a strap with long, broad stitches is more durable and will last longer.

The Phenomenato NATO strap is a relatively new option in the market that was created to solve a common problem: many people don’t like the bulky left-over of a traditional NATO band but still enjoy the seatbelt nylon fabric. This is the thinnest of all NATOs we have reviewed, coming in at 1mm thick. Like the WatchGecko Prototype, it features a slightly tighter weave than standard NATOs.

In the past, there were limited options when it came to sourcing a quality watch strap. Today, we are blessed to have a smorgasbord of aftermarket straps that span the entire spectrum of designs, materials and colors at very affordable prices. In fact, if you’re willing to spend the extra money, some aftermarket straps offer better value than the OEM straps that originally came with your watch!
