Great NATO Watch Strap arrived in the time promised. Very surprised how strong but light weight the strap is. Excellent quality and comfortable to wear all at a reasonable price.
Painless and easygoing.

Very pleased with my purchase.
Wanted to get a few different straps to improve the look and wearability of some budget watches, but didn’t want to spend a fortune. Very pleased with my purchases, bought a selection of straps, in different materials and colours.
Especially pleased with two vintage style leather straps, one black and one brown that really look and feel good. Won’t need to buy any more for a while, but when I do I’ll be straight back to have a look what is available.

New silicone strap
Purchased a great new bright yellow silicone strap (which the watch manufacturer didn't have), but I made a hash-up of my order, so it was the wrong size upon arrival. It was quickly resolved by the great team at The Thrifty Gentleman and my correct replacement strap was on its way, promptly. Great communication, quality product and a swift swap... Can't ask for better than that. So I bought a second one. Highly Recommend!
