Newbie on a mission to get all I can out of this beautiful watch journey. My philosophy is that life is too short to not pay attention to the passing of time.

I think…If you can pull it off? Then why the heck not?! 😂 looks good! What do you think about it

I'm definitely gonna bust this combo out sooner or later, but I think it depends. Bauhaus styles to me are on the dressy side, but I can absolutely see them on a nato. But dress watches with fluted bezels IMO wouldn't really go. I'm interested in what others think.
Love the combo of a dress watch on a nato 😊 it just gives a more casual look 👍

I think it’s a great way to dress down Ti our watch. A great thing for the summer when leather straps might get a bit warm.

The Mojito is on my wishlist.

It is a very nice watch, however i have found that it is a little tricky with strap pairing, not many straps that really look good with it 😅
Do it all the time.
I also will throw and elastic strap on dress watches as well. My Hammy Thinline Q Black is currently wearing a purple Watch Steward elastic.
You do you
I'm fine with fabric straps, but that hardware on a NATO strap is out of what with a dressier watch IMHO. Mind you, what used to be a normal watch, a GADA affair, is not really delicate and formal enough to raise any feathers on a NATO. @scaramanga deleted his stuff but he'd put like gold cased watches with moonphase on a textured dial, real fancy stuff, of NATO bands. I thought it looked odd.
Please check out our herringbone collection . They look stunning on dress watches !

l'll wear a nato/zulu a lot with watches that really aren't meant for them, but I don't really care about rules of formality, or really what others think about my style.
If you like it, Go for it.
