I've been looking for a 20mm-20mm adapter - something like what's shown below but I'd rather have the strap feed into a 20mm buckle rather than 20mm pins. Is there something like that in silver?

I have a cool 20mm NATO strap and want to use it.
Thanks

I have dozens - Tribbles and Tribbles of my watch photos on my computers and server. I'm damn sure I've deleted that many. Am I alone? I don't think so.

Thoughts & experience on NATO's marking watch backs over time?

I copied below Tudor pic and quote off reddit. .
I'm never going to resell my watches but I'd like to enjoy looking at the backs a decade from now.

Pic 1 Tudor back - Quote from poster: "After using the OEM NATO strap for a longer period of time I noticed that the caseback has [checker] marks all over it.."

Pic 2 My crystal back - I'm fine with service marks (shown)
Pic 3 My Logo Back - showing micro scratches

I made a quick list of the watch brands that partner with major sporting events. I did filter in favor for the major partnerships and sport events. And I did filter out Brand-to-Teams such as Ferrari etc.

But I'm sure there omissions (brand-to-team omissions) worth noting. And mistakes. Please note and correct them! I may make an updated list after a bit. Please delete "quoting" this in your reply post if you could.

Apple - Apple is not the official timekeeper of any major events I know...

Tudor Pelagos FXD Chrono has a tiered tachymeter scale so one can determine speed below 60km/s for bike races. See Pic.
