Strap Addicts of the World, Unite!
I have a confession to make. Watches aren’t enough for me anymore. I’ve become addicted to straps. What started as “I’d like to have a couple of natos to alternate” turned into “Let me just stock up on 15 more leather straps, they tend to start to stink after 6 months anyways”. And now I have a tool bag full of them…
Anyone else got this illness? What’s the cure? Help? Help!

Your strap collection is amazing! What are you favorite brands?

In terms of value for money, I think few brands beat Blushark Natos, especially with their Buy 2 get 1 free deals or promotions on Black Friday. I have a bunch of their straps and have never been disappointed. Also Dryden Watch Co. have very affordable nato options with good quality.
Leather is hit or miss. I have a couple that are quite pricey (around $200), but I just don't feel comfortable spending that much for leather. Natos I can wash and they'll last for years, leather just gets rancid after a while. So I stick to brands like Geckota, Hirsch, Rios or such, which are nice but affordable.
Your post hit hard.
All of my natos are blushark by the way.
