woof* Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Came home for lunch and the new Nato was in my mailbox. I removed the bracelet to find the solid endlinks come off just like the vintage non sel bracelet. For those of you that plan to install a Nato, plan on replacing the springbars too. The springbars that come stock on this watch are really thin and cheap, so I replaced them with some that were a bit thicker. The new Nato is a very nice color scheme and probably the closest to the gen Nato, but be warned..this is not heavy duty. It is pretty thin material like some of the cheap Nato's I have purchased from ebay. Not junk..just not as heavy as the better made ones. so....here it is!

TeeJay Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Looking good, my man, I've gotta get one of those for mine With regards the springbars, if you ever plan on replacing the bracelet, do not throw those springbars. Might just be my own experience, but I found replacing the bracelet to be harder than any other watch I've owned, and requires the bars to flex quite a bit to slot home in the lugs. On a side note about the NATO, if you want to get it more accurate to the Tudor-supplied NATO, you'll need to remove the short 'back strap', but of course, that's a personal preference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
