The strap was designed for a purpose, which was military use with fixed spring bars. Watches like modern CWC etc cannot be used with any other strap apart from horrible clip ons.

The CWC range exceeds $2,500, so we must take your opinion as a personal one. Some like them, some don't, but your reference to value is misplaced.

When Rolex supplied the military, they too were issued on Phoenix Nato straps and now a rare thing, regularly achieve over $100k.

The military thing is somewhat defunkt now, as the common issue is G-Shock, or similar.
