The Swatch Moonswatch shows that Omega isn’t afraid to push the boundaries when it comes to fun and color for their watches. It’s a great way to get that Omega Moon watch feeling for less.
However, the Moonswatch band strap that Swatch/Omega provides with this new model isn’t very appealing. The strap is made of a cheap nylon and feels stiff and plastic on the wrist. It’s also a lot thicker than the NATO straps that come with other Swatch models. It’s still a cool strap, but it’s definitely not something I would wear regularly.
Luckily, there’s plenty of options out there for a better-looking strap for your Moonswatch. For a more casual look, you could try a sailcloth or Cordura strap. These types of straps are great for sports or outdoor activities, as they’re durable and water resistant. They also give your watch a more rugged, military-style aesthetic that complements the look of a Moonswatch perfectly.

Another option is a premium NATO strap, like the one from WATCHBANDIT. This NATO is a little different from the ones you’d find at your local store, as it has a slightly thicker profile and features leather protection around the holes in the strap. This adds to the comfort and look of the watch, making it more comfortable on the wrist than other NATOs.
Finally, you could also upgrade your Moonswatch with a rubber strap. The My Everest Universal rubber strap is a good option, as it offers a bit more heft than NATOs and Velcro straps without being too heavy for the watch or creating an imbalance with the springbars. It also has curved ends, which minimize any potential gap between the strap and case.
