Heritage Straps

Probably not the "heritage" you're used to hearing around these parts, but heritage nonetheless.  Gnomon Watches, the best spot to get NATO watch straps on the web in my opinion, has stocked up on some new regimental joints that pay tribute to where you came from.  So far only Italy, France and Germany are accounted for (Word Cup 2010 bias?), but I figured that would still apply to quite a few readers.



Luckily for the rest of us Gnomon has also stocked up on some new colorways begging to hug your spring bars.  No matter what you're feeling this time of year they've got you covered, although the elusive white NATO is still nowhere to be found.  As soon as I'm done writing this nonsense I'm pulling the trigger on that blue and yellow joint to feed my nautical appetite.  Also, anyone who cops the zig-zag is a boss.

  2. As much as I like the Italian one, I can't help but think it'll make me look like Pauly D.

    A lot of the other bands are pretty money though.

  7. Probably the best range of Watchstraps is at www.regimentalshop.com, and certainly best quality - much superior fittings. Just bought 5 - took 3 days to cross the pond.
