Review: Casio Duro strap - Really impressed. Lovely quality, not at all scratchy. Looks really impressive and incredibly comfy. It’s a perfect fit for my Casio Duro and much better than the original strap. Ignore those reviews that say it’s too small - it’s very generously sized and if this is too small, you’d better cut out those pies and cakes! The colour is lovely and it’s super easy to fit.
Review: Brilliant strap - Fantastic strap, this is amazing quality for the price, would 10/10 recommend.

## Features

- Elite Heritage – First issued by Britain’s Ministry of Defense, the nylon NATO watch strap was designed to be tough, lightweight, and failsafe. Ours is no different—a testament to uncompromising quality and design that cuts no corners.
- Classic Design – Here at Archer Watch Straps, we consider the NATO strap the wayfarer of watch straps. That’s why it was our very first model. A perfect balance of fashion and function, our nylon bands are clean, classic, and timelessly sharp.
- Made to Endure – Honoring its esteemed history, our strap was carefully crafted with premium waterproof nylon and a durable stainless steel mil-spec buckle that won't chip or tarnish. Fit for the modern day adventurerer, it's one of the most durable straps in our lineup.
- Locked in Place – Using the simple Y-Strap ensures that if one of your watch’s spring bars fails, the other will keep that treasured time-piece on your wrist. Our straps are sewn with use time-tested, heavy-duty stitching, so unlike bands that use cheap heat-bonding, our seams won’t come apart.
- A Fit for Any Wrist – This classic style comfortably fits wrists from about 5.5” to roughly 8.5” in circumference. And don’t worry—any excess tucks away easily for your comfort and convenience. We’ve also spaced our stainless steel keeper rings to allow for added slack in the loop, giving you more flexibility for placing the watch and buckle along the band.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it come with spring bars?**
A: No. You are expected to thread the strap through the existing spring bars on your watch.

**Q: are these washable**
A: Yes. You can wash it by hand or in the dishwasher or washing machine.

**Q: Could this be fitted into a Casio G-Shock?**
A: Thank you for asking! This would largely depend on the model of G-Shock in question. Some Casio models use a proprietary connection that our bands are not compatible with so we would not be able to guarantee that this band would be compatible with your model. If you need anything else our team is here to help!

**Q: Which country issued the military specification and what is the reference?**
A: The reference is to the style of the strap rather than a particular manufacturer. The "NATO" strap was available to the British military from the early 1970s. The standard colour was grey. They were also known as a G10 strap because, in order to obtain one, a particular requisition form (the G1098) had to be completed. The strap became popular because it was easy to fit, replace and care for, and could easily be adjusted for a very wide range of width fittings to enable a watch to be worn over or under most battle dress. The way they are attached means that, if the spring bars of the watch became damaged, the watch would usually remain on the wrist.  They became known as the "NATO" strap becasue of military slang that used the term NATO to refer to anything that was basic / plain / unadorned / standard issue.  - e.g. a "NATO cup of tea" but, because the style is unique, the name stuck.
