I am a fan of the FXD, but lost faith in the OEM Velcro strap.
It has become unfastened but didn’t fall off while getting rolled in the surf surfing, and did fall off after a jack knife off the diving board (thankfully in a pool so recoverable). I bought this watch specifically because my bronze IWC Aquatimer had the very insecure quick release strap system that kept releasing on me. I need to find a strap I like for the FXD. This perlon is kinda stiff imo.

Perfect combo …

Wearing a tudor on a nato/fabric strap is perfect to remain stealthy.
You won’t regret it.

It can easily be converted to a single pass strap by removing the pins that hold the second layer. The strap is reasonably thin, very pliable, and secure. Comes in a variety of colors, too. I have a navy and a grey, and they both look great on my MN FXD. ...
I don't like hearing that about the OEM velcro

Frankly it doesn't FEEL very secure. The velcro part comes unstuck too easily for comfort. I'm sorry you proved that to be so! I've mostly been wearing mine on elastic MN-style straps from the watch steward ...
The Velcro is a pain.
