personally i dont think NATO straps are suitable for rolex sports models as the watch is heavy and the straps does not offer much support. this will mean top heavy bottom light, the watch will tend to slide abit forward/backward.

Nato straps are very comfortable, even for heavy watches. Of course it's not really suitable for business dress, but for casual wear, it's nice. It's light and wrap the wrist well. No issues regarding contact with water/sweat. Good quality nylon straps have very long shelf life too.[SIZE="2"][U][B]Movement collection:[/B][/U]

how much for the nato strap and where u change it? i'm considering doing it for my subdate...despite numerous objections from fellow forumers..hehehheheComment

The one that I used is actually 18mm from my Seagull purchase. The other better quality Nato straps (from US) that I have are much thicker and cannot go through the gap between the spring bar and casing. You better check the thickness of the strap. Gnomonwatches has quite a good range of Nato straps. I did DIY for strap changing.[SIZE="2"][U][B]Movement collection:[/B][/U]

oic.. i wanan change to a thick fat strap.. coz currently my bracelet only allows me to wear mah.. too big for my wife.. so i was hoping to make it adjustable in 2 sizes so both of us can wear...(so can tempt her to buy 1 more..hehehhe)
or got any other bracelet options whereby it can be adjusted easily...
hopefully i don't have to adjust until i can only use the diver's extension when im wearing and she can wear normally.hahahah

Rolex LEC
I have been trying very hard to capture Rolex LEC (Laser Etched Coronet) with my macro lens. Not successful I have to say. Yes,managed to catch it, but far from nice. I have seen better pictures in internet. Anyone want to share your LEC? I didn't use tripod. With tripod, I think the chance of getting sharper image is higher.
See the picture below, the LEC is at the bottom, middle

NICE effort !!! NICE shot !!!
Seeing the LEC with the naked eyes is already very challenging.
I took these with a little trick .....
The white one is really difficult to capture ...

Your LEC shot inspired me to try and capture them on camera ....Originally posted by Hary View PostNice shots bro
You may want to try to shine a little torch from the 12o'clock position towards the six o'clock position.
The light will bring out the etched crown making it earier to be captured.
And thanks for the inspiration ....
