Not a fan.

Well I tried, thought I’d be a fan of the Speedtimer with a nato strap on it.  I’ve got a few leather straps coming in over the next few days to try, but so far it’s the bracelet for me.   

Maybe it’s the size of the Bulova that makes the nato work for me.

thank You !! It’s not just me !! I can’t dress it any other way except the bracelet As well, I was thinking of a dark brown rally strap but I can’t decide on which one…🧐

Good Luck finding that fits and please share once you find it.

Right!! I’m going to try a black leather strap with white stitching tomorrow, but I have my doubts.

Yeah hope this helps I tried it but seems a bit off still for me…

Damn.  I thought this thread was, "I tried, but I don't like the Speedtimer..." and I was going to DM you to propose a trade or something!

Nope, not gonna even try.  I already put the bracelet back on and it’s not goin anywhere.  Feels to good with it on.

Sometimes can’t mess with perfection 😉

big watches get uncomfortable whatever strap they wear. I favor 36mm watches because i hardly know they are there. and try to never go above 40mm. The old timers had it right for all those years.

I’ve got to say this post is just typical of the dilemma I have around straps. To be honest I think both the nato & the black, white stitched, leather look great. Whatever I would tried would have looked pants!…..maybe you suffer with my dilemma too 🤔

Admittedly I haven’t seen yours on bracelet so can’t compare the difference, but what I see, looks good to me 👌🏻

here it is with the bracelet. Just fits the watch better than a strap to me.

It does look nice on the bracelet, and the important thing is that you like it…..irrespective of what anyone else thinks. 
I think sometimes we do over complicate things and what the watch came on originally is probably the best. 
I still think the nato looks good though 😂

Funny enough I just posted about the Luna Pilot asking for peoples opinions.

How big is it and do you like it much. I think it suits the NATO here really well and the Seiko looks much better on its bracelet for sure. Some watches just do suit a certain strap/bracelet configuration better than others.

After wearing the Hamilton Khaki Field in 38mm, the Lunar feels huge.  It’s not bad though, I’ve got 6.75” wrist, so I’m not big by any means.  Watch wears good though.  Probably couldn’t do the Lunar on a bracelet though.

The LP is a strap monster! Looks good with any strap. Love the watch!
