and yet have to come across one that I like. My experience with them has been they are quite uncomfortable and sticky in hot weather, require frequent washing to stay fresh, so for me it's been metal in hot and humid weather, eventually rubber for diving and leather in winter. The cheap hardware is another sore point. Closest I have been is MN straps. What brands would you recommend, if you don't mind?

Don Sandoval, quedé boquiabierto 😮. I especially loved the two Blancpain and Lange regulateur, but frankly they all look great. Congrats! I don’t have a nato yet but a two piece strap that looks like one here goes
