Sold Out: NATO straps made from Vintage Issued Military German Flight Jacket

2009-10-30T09:46:00.003-04:00

Price is $59 each shipped anywhere.

Don't let the price fool you. They should sell for a lot more.

These 20 mm straps are hand made in Australia by a master strap maker from my vintage grey goatskin military issued German flight jackets. They are lined with kangaroo leather which is the strongest leather known. Kangaroo leather is excellent for not stretching, so there is no need for an extra layer of anti stretch material between the two layers of leather. I had the stainless steel keepers custom made instead of using the more common wide ugly keepers, so this strap looks like a NATO strap. Each strap has nine holes and is adjustable to fit a 61/2" to an 83/4" wrist. Straps measure 280 mm long and about 1.75 mm thick.
Your choice of grey stitching to match the jacket leather or natural color stitching to match the kangaroo lining.
Also available are a few 1 piece pull through military style straps with grey stitching and grey jacket leather keepers. One keeper is fixed and the other is floating. They too are lined with kangaroo leather and are the same length as the NATO straps.

Price is $59 for either style strap.

This Hamilton GG-W-113 is all original with 17 jewel hacking movement and fixed bars. Keeps good time, but service history is unknown.

History of the NATO Strap

2008-07-25T14:29:00.001-04:00

This history was written by my friend AndyFromHonolulu

It's British military...
Aloha,
The strap that collectors call "NATO" (not to be confused with the Rhino, Waterborne, or Zulu straps) is based upon the standard watch strap issued by the British Ministry of Defense (MOD). Called the "G10" by members of the British military because of the form used to requisition the strap (and other items) from inventory, the reason it got its "NATO" name is because the strap has a NSN or NATO Stock Number which identifies this type of strap. Incidentally, the actual military spec strap comes in only one color (Admiralty Grey) and one width (20mm). The hardware specs have not changed (chrome plated brass), though at least some of the straps currently issued have stainless steel fittings. And there are actually TWO NATO stock numbers for the straps: Army/Navy (6645-99-124-2986) and RAF (6645-99-527-7059). If you want to read the actual Defence Standards (or Def Stan), here they are:http://www.dstan.mod.uk/data/66/047/00000200.pdf

Hope this helps,

andy

One thing I would change now in that description is that a couple of years back the MOD changed their specs again, and the current official G10 is 18mm. Depending upon when the strap was made, both 18mm and 20mm straps could be official issue.
