16” “drysuit” NATO band

Great review.

Only question I have now is the lug measurement? Looking at NATO straps they usually come in 20mm, 22 or 24. Plus I can't seem to find any in 16" length. Probably because most watches are fashion statements not really used for diving.

So a link or manufacturer of a 16" stap would be great to have.

Anyway fantastic review.... most useful.

The strap size is 22mm.

The 16" strap I got from natostrapco.com.

There's also a "black ops" variant in black (web site looks blue) here:

I'll go back and update the original posting. Nevermind. Looks like it's been too long and is locked out.

As for the red elastic strap, that one I got from bluesharkstraps.com. It's their "pajama stretch" series.
Link here:

The elastic one works quite well with a 7mm wetsuit and gloves. No problems with the strap loosening with wetsuit compression and the computer coming loose and spinning around.
 
@MacDuyver and @Thunder Struck thanks for promp replays. I can now start my search for the prefect SCUBA 22mm NATO strap.

Bloody annoyingly "YumYum Yellow" does not seem to be an option available for either styles. But I'm sure I will find something 22mm I like in 370mm length.

Try reaching out to the strap company customer service/order line. They could probably rig up what you are looking for.
