This style may have potential. NATO, elastic, adjustable length. It has a hook to secure it which is good and bad. Good because there's no holes. Bad because it may come apart? The hook looks pretty deep though.
i just ordered one of these. Will let you know what I think...
So here's a question on the width of the elastic style NATO straps. I think the lug size on the Teric is 22mm? Might it be better to actually order one that's 24mm? When the strap stretches in length, it will naturally also narrow in width. So maybe a strap that's 24mm at no tension would be the perfect 22mm when stretched around the wrist enough to keep it still.
Can anyone who has an elastic style strap speak to this concept. If the strap is stretched to the point where it is comfortable but it feels secure, how much does the width reduce? Is it like the example I gave, when a 24mm at rest narrows to about 22mm when under a little stretch? Or would it need to be stretched a stupid amount for the width to narrow that much?
OK, I got the linked strap. I don't like it.
First, the strap is really too short. When fitted to the watch, it barely goes over my wrist and would not go over a 3mm suit as well; this is when it is fitted as a NATO (second piece of strap behind the watch so the watch doesn't slide around) strap. If fitted as a Zulu with just one pass of the strap through the pins, then it fits but slides around.
Second, it is cheap looking and built.The hardware is thin and flimsy looking, even though it seems strong.
The sort of good news is the material does stretch, and does not get perceptibly narrower. It will stretch about a factor of two, and even at full elongation the width changes less than a mm.
