This Limited Edition strap was personally designed by W.O.E. with the input, guidance and expertise in craftsmanship of the professionals at Z.A. Straps. Dark Olive single pass strap with tan side stitching and a discreet W.O.E. insignia in between the strap keepers. Brushed 316 Stainless Steel buckle, in both 20 and 22mm sizes with a stainless steel or PVD option buckle. Woven, sewn and constructed in the United Kingdom by veteran-owned Z.A. Straps.
The custom UK weave with tan side stitching was modeled on fabric from compass straps used by British and American Intelligence and Special Operations personnel during and after World War II. The unique "Dark Olive" changes the shade of green based on lighting.
The watch strap contains a new W.O.E. patch based on the OSS spearhead, an hourglass base and the signature red “WOE.” In line with our community’s ethos, the insignia is visible when the strap is open, but covered up when the strap is fastened. Designed with the quiet professional in mind.

Meet W.O.E
W.O.E.® is run by a former Case Officer with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) with a passion for timepieces.
The job of a Case Officer is to recruit spies and steal secrets to collect strategic intelligence. While the location and the mission changed over the years, the one thing that remained the same was the presence of a reliable timepiece on the wrist. In the world of espionage, time matters.
I have a number of Zulu Alpha & Watches of Espionage straps. They are all great, especially the Z.A. - W.O.E. Collabs. Of all the straps in my collection, this Z.A.-W.O.E. Dark Olive is by far my favorite. The look is great. The deep green is like none of my other straps and then the addition of the contrast stitching makes the strap design totally unique. I know at first they seem a little pricey, but the strap itself is thick and durable, the hardware is quality stainless steel and the buckle is screwed in. This is top shelf craftmanship and I'm confident I'll get years of wear out of it. W.O.E. is really doing some interesting things I'm not seeing anywhere else. Worth every penny. A++
Awesome strap. Very pleased with how it looks, as well as the feel of it. Shipping and delivery was very fast. Love the W.O.E. brand, content, and community.
I received my strap yesterday, quick turnaround time. It is my first experience with a WOE strap. Had a chance to mate it to the intended watch today. I really like the way they look together. Both have a similar dark green coloration that's kind of hard to find. It fits and feels very nice around my wrist. I Like the extra utilitarian touches like having a screw holding the buckle in place. I'm not typically a fan of NATO style straps, but this one being single pass and of high quality makes it definitely a league above most others.
This was the first of four WOE straps I bought to better implement the "Use Your Tools" mentality, and I'm so impressed by the quality of this product. I wear a very heavy and bulky Invicta Grand Diver on this strap every day to work, and the comfort, strength, and utilitarian nature of the product are perfectly-suited to the heavy wear and abuse I put this watch through. Hopefully soon I'll have a Seiko GMT Turtle to wear with this as a better quality daily-driver automatic, and I can't wait to see where this strap goes with me on my international travels for work!
I’ve always been curious about Z.A. straps so getting a WOE version to try one out was a no-brainer! Thick and durable, the Z.A. strap has an interesting colorway: depending on the lighting, it appears dark olive at times, gray and even black at others. I liken the color to Elliot Brown’s NIVO, a chameleon of sorts. A very cool strap!
Very comfortable strap and close to perfect Single pass NATO. For my 6.5" wrist it's on the last notch so a little shorter strap and a shorter keeper distance would make this perfect.

Amazing, thanks so much for the support.

Built like a tank. Not only does the stitching provide a nice accent color to the strap, but adds reinforcement in the case the strap were to ever fray. The buckle uses screws rather than a standard spring bar eliminating to possibility of spring bar failure at the buckle. Another killer colab from WOE.
This is the second single pass I own, the first one I bought was the 4.0, and now this one. They’re awesome straps, very light, tough, and comfortable, no break in required. I love these straps.
Saw this combo on the WOE website and had to pull the trigger on the watch, almost just so I could pair this amazing strap with. Together it's a total horological smoke show. Wearing it right now as I write this review! It's a daily now in my regular rotation. I have dozens of watches/strap combos, and this is easily in my top 10 GADA pieces. Just wish I could get one of those strap compasses like you see it paired with on the site. I have my name on the list! Thanks WOE for caring to do things the right way, on many levels, and it shows. Will always be a customer, and strong supporter of all the work you do for our nation's hero's. We're a military family and proud to be Americans!
I saw this watch/strap combination in an earlier WOE story about the history of this Seiko(SNKP21J1) and knew I had to have it. The combination of this important watch and strap maker was something I wanted to be able to wear on my own wrist. To me it's a symbol of the sacrifices that so many of our brave Americans and those that supported them have gone through to make this country great. I wear it proudly. The strap is as good or better than anything I currently own, and coming from someone who has custom straps made for some of my watches, that's saying a lot. Buy this strap. The quality is bar setting. The look will be transformative.
I’m not going to lie, this is a very well made strap. It looks great, feels really good, and the buckle and components are very good quality. I definitely recommend it if you have the extra money laying around.
I was hesitant to buy this cause W.O.E. robs me every paycheck, but I’ve wanted a Zulu strap for a while. Hesitant on the price, but now I get it. It’s a lot heavy duty than a regular NATO. The edges on the holes are harder and will me more resistant to wear and hold up better under tension. Even the nylon is woven better than other NATOS. The W.O.E NATOs I’ve bought are beginning to show wear after using it on the Breitling due to the higher tension required for this heavy watch. I digress, the Zulu color is great and is green, but can look black and the khaki stitching is solid too. You see where the extra money went. I love it and will restock when they restock.

Thanks man, appreciate the comments. Its hard to explain without feeling it, but the quality speaks for itself. Great combo!

The strap looks killer and is really comfortable, so my two main requirements have been meet. It's such a dark green it usually looks black. The hardware on this strap is what really sold me. Finally someone makes an OTAN strap with a screw in buckle. When wearing this strap, I have zero spring bar points of failure and my watch is securely fastened to my wrist.
2.0 strap (20mm) with Praesidus A5 UDT “canteen” dive watch. Added a loop from an old watch between the keepers on the strap to help with retention of the tail, and an old Cammenga brass compass with a bit of lashing to prevent it from rattling (since it was originally made for 22mm straps)
