I have a feeling that this was a deliberate 'mistake'. Obviously earlier in the series Bond wore a Rolex Submariner and it was on this watch that the green/red NATO was worn. I think that with the swap to an Omega watch the brand will have wanted to pay homage to the early Bond films without looking to be copying exactly a dated Rolex look (even though the strap was not officially Rolex, it would have still looked a little cheap). Therefore I think it makes sense that they chose to go with the black/grey strap that Bond fans had been wearing for years. Not to mention the black and grey are definitely a more modern/popular choice of colours. I personally think they made the right decision as evidenced by how great the watch looks on the NATO strap.
