the space between the holes (middle of the hole) on my Nato is 6.5mm…
I just measured on my watch strap…. It appears to be exactly 5mm when measured from the center of the holes.
So, it's a 5mm distance that is the difference between amputation, and dangly watch on my wrist, lol

A NATO or Zulu strap might still help. Since they go under the case and are in continuous direct contact with your wrist, it's been my experience that they slide around less, even when they're a bit loose.
Lighter watched move around less, too, but since you're already committed on that front, that may just be something for future reference…

You might find NATOs fit better because they are considerably more pliable than leather or rubber. They don't have any springy-ness to themselves.
You might also like removing the extra keeper strap. I cut off that extra strap on almost all my NATOs. I don't care for the wobble from the extra 3-4mm of thickness.

That's basically a Zulu, isn't it?

“It's getting close, times are getting exciting!
So, moral/professional dilemma. I'm going to college for my bachelors in accounting. I got a very entry level job at a bank/wealth management company in their payroll department. Our entire building is no client contact, unless there is a client meeting. I have no contact with clients either way. Dress code is business casual with jeans acceptable because of the no client contact. Other branches that have actual banks are business professional with slacks. Everyone in my building wears jeans, both the men and women. Up to this point I've worn a shirt and tie with slacks for two reasons which I've mentioned, I like dressing up, and the whole "dress for the job you want, not the job you have"; so, do I continue to wear a tie and slacks everyday or, do I claim too busy with school to maintain, and join the crowd and go open collar and jeans to get more contest wear in.
Serious first world problem here.”
@fanya - my $0.02: lose the tie. jeans with a dress/sport shirt tucked in. and nice casual shoes or boots. bust ass / make your mark with the quantity/quality of work you do.
Remember, at the end of the day banks fall into the financial business category resulting in conservative practices. So not advisable showing up like a Steven Tyler roadie… lol

Collaborations…
I know IH has done quite a few vendor collabs, worldwide. But, not many brand villas that I can recall (I only know if Aero, Alexander Leathers, Simmons Bilt, Wesco, and Viberg).
Is there ever the slightest chance to do a collaboration with other denim brands, as a few other Japanese denim brands have done?
I have a serious stiffy for something like an IHxPBJ collab... They've made some substantial denims before... There's currently a 22oz raw/unsanforized on the market...
*** I'm sure this is far bigger of a topic than a forum post could cover, but it's an interesting question, nonetheless

IH Japan did a collaboration with Jelado some years ago, I believe that's the only one so far.

I'm not sure H would jump at the idea. We both love Ken-ichi san, but I think our aesthetics are pretty different…..

I still dream of like, just a fabric swap…

A 634 with PBJ denim would make me happy, but I suspect Haraki would have to be blackout drunk for 12-18 months before that would have any chance at all of happening.

The denim heads wet dream has always been a Samurai 710 in Iron Heart 21oz, and Iron Heart 634 in Samurai 19oz.
