Title: Fossil Nato Strap
Post by: chiewata on September 21, 2010, 05:21:23 AM
Many of us here may not even raised an eye brow on fashion watches from Fossil even though some of its watches is really nice n sexy. But recently a friend of mine discover that Fossil sells some nice nato straps and last weekend I pay a visit to Pavillion Fossil and I was joyous and end up buying 3 pieces and having fun use it on my DS, 000 and my Mil. Omega.

Generally Fossil selling two type of Nato Strap which is the 22mm and 18mm, interm of thickness and the quality of the straps and buckle it is far more better then the one I got from Red Army Watch for my DS previously. Besides each strap they come with 2 piece of extra spring bar pin which is handy if you don't want to spoilt the original one. But unfortunately my DS is of 21mm lug size therefore the 22mm spring bar pin I cant used it.

Here's some pictures to share:

thanks for the head up chiewata! :)

I went to s. pyramid's outlet lastweek, but the unfriendly SA turn me off, and their range of the strap all tagging at rm139 without springbars!! ??? and when i asked pavilion is selling at rm99 with springbars, why is the price diff? the malay gal ask me to buy in pavilion. ok, that's fine with me. I said, no offense I was merely asking why is the price different despite the same brand, then i walked out.

today... i walked to pavilion with the best CS like i'm their first customer during the opening kekeke..  :thumbsup:

and these went home with me, all at rm99 with springbars as a set. noticed one of it tagged at rm139 but the supervisor (sort of..?) adjusted to rm99.

(sorry for the pic ISO...)

Hi Gapper,

Yesterday when I bought my 22mm orange strap it's actually 139 only the 18mm going for 99 so now I am confuse @.@ so is yours all 18mm or there's some 22mm?

BTW ur Longiness is really nice XD

Hi chiew,

The black n the beige are 22mm, the grey v white green stripe is 18mm
I think they hving inventory barcoding issue (my observantion),bcox the label printed rm99 but when they scan the barcode one of the strap listed 139,I asked how come? Then the supervisor said ok, n adjusted the price to rm99. But in s.pyramid all nato tagging at rm139.

139 vs 99. Buy 2 get 1 free d ler. Kekekke....

Some SA is not good in entertain customer. They are lack of interpersonal relationship skill. :P Most I met they are not knowledgable about watches & rigid in negotiating. Some are judging customer with the watch he/she wearing & some judging by the overall looks.... got that a lot....  :HammerHead: Maybe I look too 'miskin' to buy 'thier' watch.  :Laughing_on_floor:
