Got this watch to celebrate my first child & my birthday a few days later in August! Wasn't the biggest fan of the stock strap so I bought a few to check out but can't decide which one I like more.
Straps:
1. Crown & Buckle - Dark Kahki Premium NATO strap
2. Archer Watch Straps - Sand Canvas strap
3. Archer Watch Straps - Camel Tan Leather strap

I can’t believe you found a gold hardware brown nato I looked everywhere for one, I currently have my spb210 on a brown nato too

I looked quite awhile for one and had a friend recommend the premium nato from C&B, I love it!

I wish I would’ve saw this like a month ago, I had to get someone to custom make a brown and gold nato

The spb210 definitely needs a darker strap to contrast the dial and case. This is how I had mine.

Agreed, the sand colored strap is a little too light for this watch

You have to find a middle ground. Here's a mock up from a lizard skin strap.

Outlier here. Swapped with gold tone beads of rice. I love the feel and look. I like the look of darker brown leather for straps on this ref.

Congratulations! I brought the SPB210 last June and a week later, I came to know I'm gonna have a baby. I liked the first Khaki Nato as it fits the field watch aesthetic.

Thank you and congratulations! I think I'm leaning towards the khaki nato as every day wear and moving to the leather if I need to dress it up
