Nicest NATOs I have owned. Super soft, beautiful premium hardware, great attention to detail, what's not to like? I have an 8.25" wrist and it's difficult to find a NATO that has all of these qualities AND fits right. These fit the bill perfectly.....I'm on the 3rd from last hole and have the correct amount of tail for the keepers. I have several other high end NATOs and none check all the boxes like these do.

These are really great straps. Photos I saw online made me slightly doubtful of the quality but these blushark alphas have surpassed my expectations. They're soft, pliable and good looking- no break in required before they become comfortable. A bit shiny but not too shiny, the material is awesome, albeit a bit thick, even thicker than some other seatbelt straps I have. Though not too thick to make them uncomfortable. These straps also shine with their hardware, which is robust and beautifully br...

I don't remember life before Blushark NATOs, and I don't want to. These are the best NATO straps you can buy. The strap, buckle, and keepers are all fit and finished perfectly. The strap fits more comfortably than any other NATO I have experienced. There was no "break in" period; the strap hugged my wrist perfectly immediately. In addition, Joe was an absolute pleasure to deal with, and the product shipped the day after ordering, and was delivered 3 days later. This strap IS WORTH the extra 5-1...

Fantastic nato-strap, one of the best quality natos' out there on the market. Everything from the stitching, to hardware felt extremely well-built. Not to mention, it looked absolutely gorgeous on my SARB035. Thanks Joe!

Deep Blue rocks the BluShark. Love the look of this band. Feels very sturdy even with my heavy watch. The premium hardware gives it a high quality look not found in cheaper bands, and the finishing/sealing is superb. I do wish it came in a 12" length option instead of standard "MOD spec" 11, but otherwise it can't be beat.

Could not be more satisfied! Beautiful and very comfortable. Great customer service, I was refunded a military discount after realizing I'm a veteran. Not many companies would go to that length!

The colour and quality of the Mocha Orca Blu shark Nato is absolutely a match made for the white dial Tissot Visodate Heritage, just like the watch the colour and tone of the mocha strap really plays with the light, in light or shade is a real eye catcher! You won't be disappointed! Great strap! Great quality!

Love the feeling of the grey alpha shark! It's thicker than my other natos and is insanely comfortable! It is the perfect pairing with my Seamaster! The only down side is that it makes the rest of my NATO straps feel cheap lol! Will be purchasing different colors in the future!

Ordered an Alphashark for my SM 2342.20 not knowing what to exactly expect other than others reviews. Let's just say I'm impressed. Alphashark straps are all that I'll oder and wear from here on out on all my watches. Incredibly personal customer service/support and the best damn NATO strap I've ever worn.

Joe at BluShark was a pleasure to deal with. The quality of this strap and the hardware is exceptional and this is by far the best quality nato I've ever owned. You won't be disappointed! I have a bad feeling that buying different coloured nato's from BluShark is going to become a new obsession of mine! Superb product, great customer service and I'm looking forward to seeing some new colours and styles in the future.

So glad I got in the the pre-order for this. As usual, the fit and finish are perfect. I would buy the Alpha in just about any color. They are the best straps I've experienced. Keep 'em coming, Joe.

Chris H.

I have five straps and they are all great! My Tag is my daily watch while my Hamilton comes out on the weekend occasionally. Like most men I do not accessorize much, except for my two watches. With these straps I am able to change it up a bit to fit the occasion. The best part is the ease of changing out the straps. Once you have the old band removed and spring bars back in place, the straps just slide behind the spring bars and you are ready to go. Changing straps only takes about a minut...

While this strap had to have been made with the Flightmaster in mind, it also looks great on my other watches too. Nice quality straps, the best customer service. Keep it up, Joe.

Ray R.

I wanted some new straps for my new SNZG so I decided to order some from Blushark. I didn't want something bulky or anything that would add anymore thickness to the case (12mm) of my watch, making it difficult and uncomfortable to slip under my cuffs. Well this strap is perfect, plus its amazingly comfortable. The canvas material is soft, (I dare say it might even be softer than the Original Blushark Nato). It's not very thick, therefore no bulk. And because its in 2 pieces, doesn't add any...

Shawn C.

Great strap, matches the Black Bay Blue perfectly. I love the two piece design. As others have said it is a bit rigid, but if you flex the strap back and forth prior to installing it then it softens up a little bit. I'm confident it will break in more as its worn. The shorter length fits my just under 7" wrist perfectly. The material seems like it is good quality and it is thick and robust. Will be purchasing more.

I bought 6 new Blu Shark Alpha's (bought 4, got 2 free = awesome) to commemorate a new Sinn purchase, the U1000, but also to fit my other Sinn's, especially my SInn Divers which I've mostly been wearing on the included tegimented bracelet and/or rubber dive strap and some other Nato/Zulu straps like DaLuca. I find these BluSharks to be the best, with Phenomenato 2nd - their delivery also takes much longer, they don't have the color options and don't offer the discounts or buy 2 get one free bonu...

One of many BluShark straps that I have, and for a very good reason! They look and feel great! The high sheen and soft Alpha line looks and feels great on the wrist. You have to own an AlphaShark at some point. Even the original and orca lines are fantastic as well!

This is my first Original collection strap from BluShark. It's awesome! The quality is right up there with the Alpha line. I love the stitching and coloring of the Blue Steel. It changes shade in different lighting. This looks good on this Glycine and an SKX007.

The Rayburn! If you want your watch to pop this is a nice unique choice. Quality is great as with all of Blushark's lineup. Wouldn't hesitate to pair this band with a planer dial. Nice finish with comfort to match.

Per the usual, you can see from my reviews that I won't go anywhere else. Joe is onto a quality affordable product; one which is a product that will complement any watch! The bond is a classic and versatile.

I now have almost every color Alphashark in my collection. Absolutely fantastic straps, quality is the best I have found. This Red/Black combination looks like it was made for my 50th Anniversary Sea Dweller. Keep it up!

Joe K.

I have alot of after market straps, this one is by far my favorite. I even have the regular Alpha Bond, but the slimness makes it wear better with my SKX 007. Dosnt sit up as high and seems to stay centered better which is a pet peeve off mine. Great Band Joe!!! Thanks for the E-mail to give me a heads up that this even existed!!! Thanks, JOE

When I first say this strap on the Blu Shark website I knew it would be perfect for my Borealis Sea Dragon (pictured) the orange was the perfect color. Very high quality hardware. Comfortable strap. I significant upgrade from the average nato style strap. This is my second Blu Shark but my first Alpha. I could definitely see getting more.

Anon M.

I was late to the NATO game and it took me a little while to realize that quality means everything. What sets Blushark apart is not just the obvious things like thicker nylon and beautifully reflective materials, but it's the little things like perfectly cut adjustment holes and nylon that bends back perfectly to tuck under a keeper with a precise fold. Just an amazing product. This AlphaShark with it's black and orange color scheme complements my Seiko perfectly.

I'm running out of nice things to say about the BluShark straps... I've lost count of how many I've purchased over the last year!!! The quality of the strap and hardware is top notch and the AlphaShark Nato's are superb value for money. They are easily the best Nato's I've found for sale and in my opinion are just as good as the OEM Omega nato's for a fraction of the price!!! Good work Joe and can't wait for your next colour combos.

Love this strap. Perfect for the 4th of July weekend. Being a current Navy, I love that the proceeds goto a good cause. I do have one comment though, this is actually the same design as the Thailand flag.

I love these blushark alpha straps. The material is so soft, and pliable. It dosen't need any break in and is one of the most comfortable natos I own. This is leagues ahead of the typical bargain natos, and definitely worth the price premium. They're not heavy, nor does the stitching have any sharp points. I really am impressed and blushark definitely has the most colour variety of any premium nato, which I hope they keep expanding! The hardware is super well made. The nylon is a bit thicker tha...

This is one of many NATO's (all Alphasharks) I've bought from Joe! Difference is that I had been waiting for this PVD to come back in stock which I'd always envisioned for my Glycine Airman! Exceptional quality as usual. Since discovering Blushark, I haven't used any other NATO strap for my watches! Two big thumbs!

I normally don't write reviews for product but BluShark deserves to be the exception. The BluShark AlphaShark straps are a great way to dress up any watch. The nylon is very soft to the touch and almost has a satin sheen in appearance. The hardware is like no other offered anywhere. The buckle and keepers are solid and beautifuly made. It's the combination of looks and quality that make BluShark such and outstanding product. Now add Joe's untouchable customer service and that makes BluShark the ...

This strap is called the "Alpha" for a reason. It's the king of style and comfort when it comes to Natostraps. I picked this and the OD Green one up, and couldn't be happier w/ the fit and finish. VERY comfortable to wear and I felt it immediately.

This gives a fresh new look to my brown orient watch. This was my first purchase with blue shark and first experience with Nato straps. The straps shipped quickly and look great. I got this brown one, and the Navy one for my Seiko Padi Turtle. Thanks Joe!

I was very hesistant to buy from BluShark because I had not heard of them before. Jalopnik posted a watch piece and recommended this brand for NATO straps. I bought 2 and got 1 free. The straps came beautifully packaged. Each strap looked professionally presented. The product felt very quality. The buckles and loops looked very refined. I installed this on several watches and settled for it on my Seiko SARG009. Looks great and wears very nicely.

Just in time for Veteran's Day. Love the premium buckle on my Blushark Natos. I honestly do not know of any other company that offers the same quality in their Nato straps. Will definitely be adding more Blushark Nato straps to my collection.
