SKU Code: NATO18BRS2

This classic NATO watchband is made from fast-drying ballistic nylon webbing, a high-tech material that is robust, comfortable, and long-lasting, making it ideally suited for military watch straps. The design characteristics of these straps reduce the risk of losing a watch to virtually zero, as the watch is held securely at two different points, making it virtually impossible for it to come off the wrist, even during extreme activities.

History and Evolution

The history of the NATO strap began over 50 years ago with a single grey strap. It initially expanded to include colors such as RAF Blue, Black, Navy Blue, the James Bond pattern, and Olive Green. Since then, we have developed an extensive range of variants in regimental colors, Search and Rescue (SAR) orange, national colors, police unit colors, and various camouflage options for specific situations. These straps are frequently used by military units outside the UK and are popular among serving military personnel for a wide variety of military watches.

Extensive Range

Currently, we manufacture nearly 200 different variants in a wide array of colors and sizes from 18mm to 24mm. These straps are available for retail and wholesale customers, and we also offer custom regimental straps. Many of these straps are sold in large quantities through various procurement contracts.

Specifications and Standards

The original specification for the NATO strap was established by the UK Ministry of Defence as Defence Standard 66-47 Issue 2, published on March 30, 2001. Previous specifications included Def Stan 66-47 Issue 1 (November 13, 1992), Def Stan 66-15 (Part 1) Issue 1 (November 30, 1973), and Def Stan 66-15 (Part 2) Issue 1 (January 31, 1974). The current specification data sheet can be downloaded here. Although minor adjustments have been made, the design remains largely consistent, however some bulk procurement contracts specify stitching around the buckles, others opt for the traditional heat sealed process but both have their advantages and drawbacks and in terms of day-to-day use and general functionality both processes work equally well.

Versatility and Durability

For over forty years, we have supplied these straps to a diverse range of clients, including military personnel, police, emergency services, exploration units, Search and Rescue teams, oil and gas companies, marine salvage and exploration businesses, and organizations operating in tropical or desert locations. The NATO strap's easy maintenance, quick drying time, and resistance to rot and deterioration make it superior to leather or silicone alternatives.

Compatibility

NATO straps are compatible with watches from all leading military contractors, both past and present, such as Marathon, CWC, Citizen, and Pulsar. They are also ideal for robust civilian watches from brands like Seiko, Rolex, and Breitling.

In summary, the NATO strap's unmatched durability, versatility, and secure design make it the preferred choice for a wide range of professional and personal applications.

Great weed wacker!
Style: String Trimmer
BLACK+DECKER Weed Wacker with Auto Feed, corded 14-Inch 2 in 1 String Trimmer Lawn Edger, Powerful 6.5-Amp. I recently purchased this trimmer and really like it. It took less than a minute to set up, and the adjustable height and handle make it very comfortable to use. It easily rotates between a string trimmer and a wheeled edger for clean lawn borders. I did go through two spools of line for 7,000 sq. ft. of grass, but for the price, it’s a very impressive tool.

Serves its purpose-EDIT
Style: String Trimmer
Experience as of 8/1/24 Pros: ease of use, weight, power, price point. Cons: There is no way to get out of spending a fortune on string. Manufacturer defect why this is so cheap & discontinued. Shame on them. I've tried everything in my unknowledgeable unprofessional experience. Silicone spray lube does help & plastic core has to be in like new condition - not even slight wearing. I've bought hardcore string, still rolls out too fast & gets stuck a lot because motor can't handle & tends to heat up string which causes it to bind. I've tried removing auto feed lever & auto cutter, worse. Kept past 30 days & tinkering voids my warranty. If $ spent on buying exorbitant amounts of string is not a concern, everything else is perfect. I have an old B&D from the early 2000s still kicking grass. I just hate batteries. So I can either buy a new weed whacker or buy batteries. 3.75 stars Pros: Great power even with 200 ft cord (use proper cords). Works quickly & efficiently & powerful. The edger works outstanding. Used around chain fencing hard rocks & blacktop. Normal to high grass up to 12 in. adjustable Lightweight & easy to operate for a 62yo 5'2" female. Cons: using electric cord was a pain for me but once get used to it no matter. The string automatically feeds but extremely fast. I believe it has to do with where & what you're up against. Many many times I had to stop & adjust the string roll. I found if ur careful about inserting properly & hearing the click it works better but again if you're operating under more than moderate conditions it seems to stick more & you have to adjust. That seems to be a design flaw in manufacturers use of cheaper materials. The string it comes with is extremely short & runs out quickly. Based on other correct reviews I bought a B&D refill 3pack. Not the best either. I used all 3 rolls in 2.5 rounds of 1/4 acre back yard (hard conditions) & 1/8 acre front yard & blacktop edging. Better off buying bulk cheaper $ & restringing roll cores. I believe this also has to do with conditions of use and the B&D string is not any stronger than discount string. I purchased a bulk tougher string & will see if there's any difference in quantity usage. This is not the best but not the worst. There are hardly any corded options for weed eaters but I was determined to stay with corded option because batteries are so unreliable these days. Product still a good value for the price. Disclaimer only sporadically using battery weed eaters a few years.

Great edger for home use
This WORX 12 Amp Electric Lawn Edger did exactly what I needed it to do. It was easy to use, had plenty of power for cleaning up the edges around my driveway and sidewalk, and gave the yard a much cleaner, finished look. I like that it is corded because I do not have to worry about batteries dying, and it has enough power for regular homeowner use. The first pass took a little extra time since the edges needed cleaned up, but once I got going, it worked great. Overall, this is a solid edger/trencher for the price, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone wanting cleaner lawn edges without dealing with gas.

Does the job!
Puts in the work! Knocked out my driveway no problem. Unsure about longevity but it’s great for a homeowner. Easy to assemble. Easy to use. Adjustment is nice along with the guide plate.

Takes The Edge Off!
This is a decent product. If you are going to do a lot of edging, or want to do deep trenching to run conduit, etc. this is NOT the product you want. It is electric, so you are tethered to an outlet, and of course, the farther you go on extension cords, the less of the 12 amp juice you get. It also trenches to 1 1/2", which is OK, but not enough to dump conduit, etc. That said, this is a very good edger. Out of the box, it is minimal assembly. You connect the three pieces of the shaft, removing some edge tape from it, and inserting two metal bolts and plastic knobs, similar to most lawn mowers these days. Then you install the plastic handle with another bolt. That's it. For use, you have a lever which you pull up for edging and lower for trenching to adjust the group clearance. You also choose 1", 1/4", or 1 1/2" depth. Then you plug it in. There is a white line on top of the blade cover so you know where the blade is. You just pull the trigger to run the blade, or release the trigger to stop the blade. Be careful not to lose sight of your electric cord so you don't hit it! I edged along my driveway, about 50' on each side, as well as my front of my lawn, so another 85' along the lawn and the apron (both sides). That's over 350'. It cut through the grass and dirt easily. It struggled a couple of times, on some tough mounds of grass, but like any other tool, you don't force it when that happens, just back up and do that area again slowly. If you come too close to blacktop, Belgian block, stone, etc. you will see sparks so you will know. Just keep in mind, this is an edger. You will be left with the severed grass/sod to remove. In my case I was loooong overdue for a edging, so I spent a long time scraping the sod off the pavement with a shovel. I expect with more frequent ending, and now working with a cleaner edge, this will be less of an issue. Either way, that is not on the product, but the state of the lawn. The edger has 2 read wheels and one smaller front wheel so , although this is not like a big, gas-powered curb jumping unit, you have the option of attacking a curb edge from either the blade side or other side of the edger, so you can get real close to a Belgian block curb. I also did the edge where my grass meets my mulched flower bed, but that was more of a trimming than a edge removal. Overall, the Work edger did as good, or better, a job than my string trimmer, and I didn't have to stop every few minutes to rewrap string. Plus it trenched enough to give me a definitive edge, whereas the string edger just cuts into the grass, not a real trench.
