    Wotancraft vintage leather NATO arrived!!

    Well, it has been a while coming, but the new strpa has arrived for my Bund.

    I ordered a Wotancraft vintage NATO 20mm strap as I thought that would compliment the Bund nicely. I am pleased to say the strap is gorgeous and I am over the moon with it. It came in a nice presentation box with a nice little gift as well.

    I cannot recommend James at Wotancraft highly enough. His communication was sensational and the end result is stunning. I will definitely get more of this straps. Obviously, I have taken a few shots to show you guys, let me know what you think :wink:

    Glad that you like it. I was unsure before it arrived, but am really happy with the result now.

    That looks nice. Almost too battered and distressed though! It does suit the watch, I must admit.

    Any wrist shots??

    Just looking at their site and the straps for Rolex's look good as do the Panerai etc.

    Fairly hefty price tags!

    A little bit of leather feed will nourish it back up, darken the colour slightly and reduce the 'distressed' look slightly.

    Wrist shots as asked...

    Personally I think the combo really works. Excellent choice.

    The vintage straps of Wotancraft transport you in the time

    A little bit too "vintage" for me.




    This is about as distressed as I can take it:

    I like the strap, but agree maybe too battered for the watch.

    i didn't think it looked that great on that particular watch,however,
    as soon as it went on your wrist it suited it.
    would look good on a vintage,unmolested watch as well i feel.

    It looks great... but such a thick NATO needs a substantial wrist to match it. Otherwise it looks a bit cumbersome to me...

    @sporty corty: Just curious as to how you're getting along with the leather nato one month in..

    i too have indulged in a wotancraft strap. i have to say, a year on and it's still my favourite! Only criticism is that I could do without the presentation box and other gimmicks which only add to the cost...

    Still loving the Wotancraft thanks! Sadly the Bund hasn't been getting much wrist time though, but the combo will back out to play again soon...
