Superior 22mm Black, Red and Olive Green NATO Military Watch Strap in Seatbelt Ballistic Nylon

Sold Out

Product Details

SKU Code: MWC/MOD35/22

Overview:

This classic NATO 22mm watchband is crafted from fast-drying, seatbelt-pattern ballistic nylon, a high-tech material known for its robustness, comfort, and long-lasting durability. Ideal for military applications, the nylon used in this strap is soft and comfortable while retaining the essential characteristics of traditional NATO straps. One of the main advantages of this seatbelt-type nylon is that it secures the watch at two separate points, minimizing the risk of it slipping off the wrist, even during extreme activities.

History and Evolution:

The NATO strap's origins date back over 50 years to a simple grey strap. Over time, it expanded to include colors such as RAF Blue, Black, Navy Blue, the iconic James Bond pattern, and Olive Green. Today, the range has evolved to offer a vast selection of variants, including regimental colors, Search and Rescue (SAR) orange, national colors, police unit designs, and specialized camouflage patterns. These straps are frequently adopted by military units around the world and are favored by active military personnel for their reliability and versatility with various military watches.

Extensive Range:

We now offer nearly 200 different variants of NATO straps, available in a wide range of colors and sizes (from 18mm to 24mm). Our straps cater to both retail and wholesale customers, and we provide custom regimental straps as well. Many of these variants are distributed in bulk through procurement contracts, highlighting their popularity among professional organizations.

Specifications and Standards:

The original NATO strap specification was issued by the UK Ministry of Defence under Defence Standard 66-47 Issue 2, published on March 30, 2001. Previous specifications include Def Stan 66-47 Issue 1 (1992) and Def Stan 66-15 from the 1970s. While there have been minor updates, the design remains largely unchanged, with most bulk contracts now requiring stitched buckles for added durability.
