Nato strap location
Rec'd my nato strap and have installed on my Speedy. I'm not able to align the underside of the strap so that the buckle is in the middle of my wrist. I want the buckle to be more to the left as seen in the pic above. For those with Nato experience, does this look correct? Cheers

I don’t have the answer to your question, but the speedy looks great on that strap!

On my NATO straps you can move the watch back and forth to ensure you get the buckle just where you want it.

Same deal, exactly where mine sits on a 7” wrist

From my experience with nato straps....they never line up perfectly with the buckle in the center. At least in my own trials with them.

Thanks for the replies, I've got an email into Blushark tech support to see what they say. I'll let you know if they come back with anything useful.

I like the look of the NATO strap (really like the color you’re rocking) on the Speedy but for some reason I can’t quite get a good fit (it’s either slightly loose and too top heavy or too tight) and find it less comfortable overall than on the croc (which obviously doesn’t work for summer). Wanted to have a non-bracelet option in the rotation but still trying to figure out what’s best on this watch for the warmer months. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Natos are not meant to line up with the buckle under you wrist. The buckle is usually on the side of the wrist. It is better this way so the buckle does not rub on your desk/laptop or catch on anything. You can remove the second layer of nylon from your strap. This will make the strap a one layered strap and you can center it any way you want it.
