After years of using the first method and never thinking much about it, seeing the third option has most certainly been an eye-opener for me. It also makes the watch more balanced because it wears closer to the skin and the there's a bit more weight underneath your wrist. It just makes perfect sense.

Option 3 is genius & made my watches feel a whole lot better on my wrist (literally feel totally connected). I like the fact that most of the wear is normally to the inside of your wrist (rest wrist a lot on desk at work without realizing it) & the strap keepers protect the strap & cushions the strap to wrist connection. Loving it on my Tom Ford Ocean plastic auto & Hamilton Khaki. Thank you

Option three has the major benefit of reducing the height of the watch. It's now single-ply between your wrist and the watch, like a Eulit Perlon strap! However, 1) the buckle and one of the retainers are in constant contact, and 2) the other two retainers are under your wrist. I can see these two reasons resulting in additional wear on the metal pieces (especially for PVDs or metals softer than steel). Edit: Solution to problem #1 using option three is to put the end into only the buckle. This will leave nylon between the first retainer and buckle, protecting them from each other. The first retainer, however, will sit loose underneath everything (between your wrist and the strap).

I use the 3rd attachment version you showed as saves some bulk under bottom of watch. Good thing about the nato types is can change daily and have a different look. Olive is my favourite colour but do swap for a grey or blue. Only down fall for them is being immersed in salt water a lot ,can get a bit messy if not rinsed off. Luckily not lost another watch .
