This is only a partially negative review. The stitching near one of the two lugs is irregular. A white part of the inner lining is visible. The strap is black, so the contrast is clear. I haven't ask... See more

Ordered on a Friday arrived next day incredible service especially as delivery was included. The strap a KFM rubber is excellent a nice solid piece of kit supple but also substantial.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A very well-made strap, second to none. The price is absolutely reasonable. It certainly won't be the last Sailcloth strap I buy from them. It wears wonderfully. Great job, North Straps!

I really loved these straps! Great material, high quality, and the price is perfect. I really recommend them. I'll buy another pair.

Considering it was an overseas order, shipping was fast. The strap is high quality and comfortable with zero break in.

Service was excellent. Arrived in a timely manner and was as described. Great quality nato straps. I won’t buy my NATO’s from anywhere else.

The order was shipped over seas and arrived in a reasonable amount of time, not to mention the straps exceeded my expectations.

A very high-quality strap that's truly worth every cent. It wears wonderfully, and it certainly won't be the last strap I buy from North Straps.

Fast delivery. The Sailcloth Strap is unbeatable for the price. This won't be my last tape I bought there. Bravo North Straps for your good work.

Bought 2 of the Bond NATO straps for my Seamaster. Really easy to fit and look great. Straps were slightly longer than my other NATO's I have in my collection

Don't pay more!

Great communication, well packaged and sent promptly.
This is a top quality FKM Tropic strap & you can pay a whole lot more for the same strap elsewhere. Buckle quality is also good - it would be nice if it was signed but I swapped it out for my Isotope one anyway (which indeed is better quality). Comfortable straight out the packet and quick release, so get swapping those straps to change the look of your watches!

Great straps for an unbeatable price

Purchased a Sailcloth strap and FKM Rubber strap for my Tissot Seastar 1000 40mm. The order was shipped within 24 hours with full international tracking. Straps are of great quality for the price point. Unbeatable quality to price ratio. The sailcloth strap is very water resistant and dries quickly. Their product description is accurate and transparent which I very much appreciate, unlike many other companies that pretend to make real sailcloth straps and then you end up with a piece of plastic. Great job North! Keep it up! Let me know when your Tropical FKM straps are back in store ;)

Very nice quality. Great product.

I ordered from Germany, the delivery was fast and the product met with my expectations. I had an issue with the strap of my own doing however NORTHSTAR customer service immediately assisted with my problem. Speedy delivery, responsive customer service and good quality products. Have my eye on a couple more items, will use again and happily recommend them to others.

Check the returns policy

The order process and delivery went fine, but as it turns out I didn't really like the quality of the straps I bought (and one just didn't happen to suit the watch I intended it for). I hadn't realised that, simply by putting them onto my watch, to have a look at them, without wearing them out, I've violated their returns policy. So now I'm stuck having paid for two straps that I will not use. Partly my fault for not having checked their returns policy more carefully beforehand, but other retailers seem to allow you to mount the strap on the watch without losing the right to return.

Hi Tony,

I am sorry that you were not totally happy with your straps. Unfortunately we cannot return items that have been worn or mounted onto a watch. This is common practice to all watch strap companies and not just us.

Kind regards,
Nick

I have bought a strap from Spain

I have bought a strap from Spain. Everything has worked pefectly. The sailcloth strap is a very high quality product. 100% satisfied. I will buy more for sure. I would like to have the possibility to buy 21 mm lug with straps for my longines but arw not available, maybe some day. Thanks for your good work.

Enjoyed the straps

Enjoyed the straps, good quality. My only complaint is that the sailcloth strap is a very tight fit for all my 20mm straps.

Other than that all good :)

Hello Christian, I am glad you like the straps and you think they are good quality, not sure what you mean about the tight fit? Also, 3 stars? Seems a bit harsh!

Kind regards,

Good looks

Good looks, good quality.
Colors are extremely close to what you see on the website photos, which is quite rare.

Super quick dispatch

Super quick dispatch, right first time (2 rubber straps).
Good quality straps for the price. CTS clasp is simple and works - not fancy.
Also shipped with watch tool to change the straps which got the job done - nice touch.
