I'm not hugely taken with the bracelet on my Seamaster, I don't like the way it narrows towards the clasp, as I need to add a link to it for ideal fit I thought I'd see what alternative straps/bracelets are out there first, maybe even a NATO. So I went into the 2 local places that sell such things, 1 traditional jeweller/watch shop and 1 of those watch repair/battery/strap franchises. Neither would sell me anything on the grounds that they didn't think they had anything good enough for the watch.
This surprised me, surely if a strap does the job it does it no matter which watch it is on?
