Could anyone tell me the right way to set-up and wear my waterborne band (w/ ss rings)? I bought one for my citizen aqualand and I'm starting to feel pretty dumb in not being sure how to wear/right it. Help please (pics would be great).

Thanks

with pictures and everything... :-)
hope this helps.

Waterborne straps are slightly different in layout from NATO standard straps. A Waterborne threading diagram can be found here.

i failed to see the difference.

The Waterborne strap has two rings on the tongue side, the buckle end is shorter, and the ring spacing is different on the buckle end. Waterborne's reccomended threading is, therefore, a little different.

Fairly minor differences, though I prefer the NATO strap; it's easier to tuck the slack.
