    Who makes the longest, thickest NATO/ZULU straps?

    Who makes a heavy duty NATO/ZULU strap for these heavy dive watches? My wrist is almost 8.5 inches...so the longer, the better.

    Thanks in advance,
    Ron

    Maratac zulus have served me well, the 5 ring proved to be a little bulky on my day/night ops but worked well with the flatter caseback of the tawatec. as far as the skull bracelet goes (completely unrelated to the topic, i just happened to be wearing it when i put on the tawatec and thought i might keep it in the picture for the 2 watches side by side, hahaha.

    Maratac makes a great "four buckle" zulu. If you need a really long one try the Maratac "Nitrox-17." County Comm is where I get mine.

    Agree with the above comments on the Maratecs. I buy mine from Bob at MWR, since he runs a forum for milwatch nutters which is supported by the business. Gotta support the guys who give us a place to hang out!
