Sometimes the best look is the simplest one. A solid colour NATO strap is the easiest way to switch up your watch without overthinking it. No patterns to clash with your outfit, no bold designs competing with your dial — just a clean, single-colour strap that lets your watch do the talking.
Solid colour NATO straps are the foundation of any strap collection. They're versatile enough to wear daily, tough enough to handle whatever you throw at them, and affordable enough to grab a few so you've always got options. Whether you're heading to the office, the beach, or just the pub on a Friday arvo, there's a colour that fits the vibe.
Our solid colour NATO straps are made from tightly woven nylon with reinforced stitching and quality hardware. They're comfortable from day one — no break-in period needed — and they dry fast if they cop a splash. Browse the range below or use our Strap Finder to match one to your watch.
The one everyone needs. A black NATO strap goes with literally everything — black dial, white dial, blue dial, doesn't matter. It's the default choice for a reason. Pair it with black PVD hardware for a full stealth look, or polished silver for something a bit more classic. If you only own one strap, make it black.
Navy is the smart-casual king. A navy NATO strap has all the versatility of black but with a touch more character. It's a natural match for blue and white dials, looks brilliant with silver or rose gold cases, and works just as well with a button-up as it does with a t-shirt. Easily our second most popular colour.
This is where NATO straps started — on military wrists. An olive NATO strap (sometimes called khaki) brings that heritage feel without being too themey. It pairs beautifully with cream, black, and green dials, and adds a rugged edge to field watches and divers alike. A must-have for anyone who likes their watches with a bit of character.
The modern neutral. A grey NATO strap sits right between black and white, making it ridiculously easy to match. It's understated, clean, and works particularly well with silver and grey-dialled watches. If you find black too harsh but still want something subtle, grey is your answer.
Not sure which colour to grab? Here are three easy approaches:
Still stuck? Our Strap Finder walks you through it step by step — just pick your watch brand and we'll suggest the best colours and sizes.
We stock solid colour NATO straps in all the common lug widths:
Got an odd size? If your watch has 19mm or 21mm lugs, it's generally fine to size down by 1mm (use 18mm or 20mm respectively). NATO nylon has a bit of give, so it'll tuck in neatly without any gap. Check our Strap Finder if you're not sure what size you need.
Start with black or navy — they're the most versatile and work with practically any watch. Once you've got a go-to neutral, add an olive or grey for variety. Most of our customers end up with at least three or four colours in rotation.
Black. It matches every dial colour, suits every occasion, and pairs with both silver and black hardware. Navy is a strong second option if you want something with a bit more personality.
Yep! We offer polished silver, brushed silver, matte black PVD, and gold buckle hardware across most of our solid colour range. Matching your buckle to your watch case makes a big difference to the overall look.
You need to know your watch's lug width — that's the distance between the two lugs where the strap attaches. The most common sizes are 20mm and 22mm. You can measure it with a ruler, check your watch's specs online, or use our Strap Finder to look it up by brand and model.
Our standard NATO straps are around 270mm total length, which comfortably fits wrists up to about 22cm. That covers the vast majority of wrist sizes. If you need something longer, drop us a line and we'll see what we can do.
