Been looking for a solution to my special needs brother destroying watch bars as he struggles with fine motor skills. Velcro is the solution. Great product. Very comfortable with ease of installation. Wish the clasp was also matte black. Will be ordering 3 more black and one grey band!

Some of the finest nato straps around. The contrast stitching is excellent, the colorways work on nearly every tool watch, the hardware is the best I’ve experienced not only on a nato, but almost any watch band. My only small gripe is that the with the way the holes are cut, they’ll occasionally catch if you’re threading the band through a very tight pass between watch case and springbar.

I recently switched over to using MN Straps after trying out FKM rubber, steel bracelets, NATOs/Zulu for the versatility in size adjustment but just couldn't get over how thin they fit on my wrist. Coming across WoE on Instagram, I read about the Glomar Explorer and wanted to give it a try based off the countless 5-star reviews. I was unsure about sizing as I fell right in-between Standard and Short but an email to WoE was all it took to sort out that confusion of mine. Very helpful! Just receiv...

Really happy with this strap. The fit and feel are excellent, and the quality exceeded my expectations. I was unsure if the colors would pair well with my Seiko SPB383, but it ended up being a perfect match.

Wanted to try an elastic strap for awhile as my wrist size is always between holes on NATO bands. I knew WOE would deliver a quality product. The elastic feels substantial while maintaining low profile. The Rapco buckle sits pretty flush on the underside of my wrist. Really like it so far.

Og B.
The WOE Glomar strap? It is almost prefect. I think it is better than anything else available using Velcro. Not much for looks and the velcro placement could be a lot better for anything past a 7.25" wrist. It is easy to critic, but that doesn't make it bad as is. The majority of details, as in, exceptional quality on the strap material, the super tight keeper and sewing are exceptional. The buckle could be more rounded and tumbled to be more comfortable. and less likely to hang up on anyt...

Once again W.O.E. has crush it with another set of straps. There good quality and comfortable to wear. The colors are on point especially the navy blue, and the rubber arrow head exposed this time is a nice touch since it’s normal hidden. Will definitely be buying the rest of color ways.

Great strap it feels tough not flimsy the hardware is excellent. The finish at the tip of the strap is really smart. The colors available for the Five Eye are great. I highly recommend.. Don't let the Breitling mislead you I'm not very sketchy....

Nice and snug loopy keeper thing, strong velcro. Super quality. Fit for skiing, or your next trip to Barcelona. If somebody really wants your watch and doesn't have a blade, they'll have to take your hand with it - and travel insurance might actually cover that.

Love this watch case! Extremely high quality material and construction. VERY versatile: You can carry a single watch with metal bracelet,. You can carry two watches on nylon straps easily with the leather card between. You can also carry one watch on a metal bracelet along with a couple of other straps and the WOE travel watch tool with an extra set of spring bars in the cotton pouch. This is the only travel case I’ll ever need!

Exactly what I was looking for to have an alternative to standard NATO. Extremely comfortable and adjustable, no hard pieces between my wrist and the desk, and the buckle is off to the side and protected by the strap. No more typing discomfort!

Typically I am not one for elastic straps but this one hasn’t left my FXD since I got it. The buckle system develops patina quickly and has a unique way of fastening. I’d buy another if more colors come out.

WOE makes the highest quality NATO strap I've ever purchased. The fabric is strong, as well as comfortable, with reinforcing stiches at the end of the strap. The most impressive part, though, is the hardware. The clasp even has a slot machined in it to keep it centerd on the strap.

Comfortable, stylish, and unique. Wasn't sure if it'd be worth the price but it definitely is, and there's nothing else like it on the market. Great way to tip the hat to warfighter/Intel roots while still looking stylish to civilians. Love stuff like this that isn't overstated. Sturdy quality leather underneath the BDU material. Really cool idea executed perfectly. Also it's in Tarkov now.

Arrived today, completely smooth ordering and delivery process. The items are superbly crafted from fantastic materials. The case leather is lightly sueded, has that new leather scent, and my Seiko MACV-SOG stealth reissue fits great on the leather card and in the pouch. To top it all off, the strip of camo supplied is an interesting pattern. The WoE coin is also fantastic! In sum, this is a stellar product.

Kevin O.
I’ve always been curious about Z.A. straps so getting a WOE version to try one out was a no-brainer! Thick and durable, the Z.A. strap has an interesting colorway: depending on the lighting, it appears dark olive at times, gray and even black at others. I liken the color to Elliot Brown’s NIVO, a chameleon of sorts. A very cool strap!

Jesse B.
I bought the Oxblood 22mm last week and tossed it in my Tudor FXD and a few hours after receiving it I bought a second one in black in 20mm. Like I said in my last review this Cordovan leather is amazing. It’s one of the if not the smoothest and softest leathers I have ever had. The colors are gorgeous and the quality is tier 1. Definitely hope to see more products made by this company on the W.O.E. Site in the future.

I’ve been eyeing this one down for quite some time, now that I have it I wish I pulled the trigger a lot earlier. Fantastic strap, extremely comfortable and will only get better with age. The boys knocked it out of the park again.

The Commander 22mm Five Eye was my second Five Eye that I've purchased from Watches of Espionage store. As someone who is in the ocean, lakes, rivers, and the pool regularly, it's nice to know that my Tudor Pelagos 42mm is secure on my wrist, even when worn over or under a wetsuit sleeve when I take it diving and spearfishing. The quality of the Five Eye straps and attention to detail is par none. Knowing you are supporting the best watch account on IG and a small shop that believes in Americ...

Master Of Disaster
Great strap. Nice stitching and very high quality suede. When I first got this strap I tried it on a few different watches and didn't really love how it looked. I think this looks best on more dressy pieces or more vintage oriented watches. When I got the IWC Mark XX blue dial it was like a match made in heaven. It suits the IWC perfectly. This strap is cool because it can flex from T shirt and shorts to more dressy clothing. As usual a homerun from WOE!

This thing is rugged but comfortable. The ultimate strap for an actual tool watch. The keeper is the addition that puts it over the top for me. Most of the other higher end brands don’t have a good tab keeper. Definitely will be getting this in more color for my dive watches.

I have had this strap for 2 weeks and can already say it is the highest-quality leather strap I have ever owned. The leather is gorgeous. It is smooth, supple, and comfortable, and it adhered quickly to the contours of my wrist. The color is steadfast, but is already evincing a subtle patina that gives it a unique character. Most importantly, for a man who is somewhat clumsy in his goings about, this thing is durable, as any tool should be: it has been exposed to soap, cooking oils, water, and d...

Rawhide
I just returned from a trip to Central Europe. I more the 5 Eye Black PVD NATO strap on my Coke. Of course the black looks dynamite with the red/black bezel and red hand. Even more importantly, I chose it because the nylon strap is less shiny and attracts less attention than the distinctive Rolex SS bracelet. It is also a more secure way to wear a watch. The heavy nylon, welded and sewn attachments with heavy PVDed hardware makes the strap substantial, comfortable and lightweight. It also accomm...

I received my strap yesterday, quick turnaround time. It is my first experience with a WOE strap. Had a chance to mate it to the intended watch today. I really like the way they look together. Both have a similar dark green coloration that's kind of hard to find. It fits and feels very nice around my wrist. I Like the extra utilitarian touches like having a screw holding the buckle in place. I'm not typically a fan of NATO style straps, but this one being single pass and of high quality ma...

I love this strap! Pairs perfectly with my Glashütte Original SeaQ 39, and it's very well built. The end is stitched to prevent fraying, the red stripe is in a tactile groove, which looks and feels great. Highly recommend!

These are actually my favorite WOE straps. Comfortable, easy to adjust, great hardware that matches my Rolex cases. The keeper to secure the strap end is genius. They didn’t have that in the 1970-80s when I first wore these. Also, no problem yet with retained odors. The old ones could clear out a room even if you washed them daily. This is definitely a IYKYK deal. I guess I’m just not sweating enough anymore!

Outstanding quality, great value for money, comfortable. Looks slick, very fast shipping. Love how many Five Eye options are available. Need an affordable leather option would be cool? Order one asap. I don't have anything more to say other than again, order one or two! I pair it with my Sangin Kinetic II Gypsy.

Damn! I hate to comment because I have yet to be able to pick up the 22mm version. These things sold out very quickly last time around! Before 6am MST. That said it is a handy and exceptionally well-made tool. Very well, done there! Downside? As stated on the web page, you won't get one on a Glomar. That required going back to the OEM mil-spec Marathon ballistic strap. Perfect fit on the 20mm btw. Probably time to pony up for a WOE strap that will fit. But I'll wait until after the ...

I've a FXD watch from the time of first availability. Great watches, accurate, reliable and concrete tough by all accounts. But of the many straps I have used on the FXD I have never been totally satisfied with any of them. Until now. I actually bought this one just to add a black Glomar. No joke. The strap is that good. I now have the Glomar on both 20 and 22mm sized watches. This strap is worth every penny of its cost to me. Much higher quality and simply a better strap than Tudor's O...

Perfect fit on my SD. Way more comfortable of a fit than the hollow link oyster bracelet was. Think the black stripe compliments black bezel and dial. 2nd day owning it took it to California and rocked for a marathon. Love this strap so far

Operates, feels, and looks great. Very well made. The short option is what ultimately won me over as these kinds of straps can be difficult to find for smaller wrists. Great customer service as well.

This is a great offer from a watch blog. Plus it’s a Zippo, quality bona fides established. I’ve always been fascinated with lighters, especially Zippos. My parents chain smoked (Don Draper era) I tried once but didn’t inhale (Bill Clinton era) That being said, I’ve always picked up logoed Zippos from my military units and cool places (Airborne Museum, Ste Mere Eglise) and this one is the classic WW II style and has incredible meaningful graphics. I always carried a Zippo when I was in the mili...

FIT - Strap used on a 6306 turtle, with lug width 22mm and lug/springbar distance approx. 4.35cm. Photos show the fit of the Short version. I have small wrists of about 6.35cm in the cold and 6.45-6.5cm in heat. I do find the Short strap to be “maxed out” when I wear comfortably and slightly loose (see photo 4) versus when I wear it really fitted (see photo 3). So the sizing and notes in the listing description is accurate. If in doubt about being in-between sizes like I was, I suggest going f...

Great and comfortable strap. Really nice to see you talking about Elliot Brown watches recently. I’ve read the articles you’ve written on them and after buying my RNLI Canford for work on the boat a few years back, I decided to get this strap. Thanks again from across the pond. Use your tools!!!
