iStrap Leather Watch Band -Alligator Grain Embossed Pattern Calfskin Replacement Strap-Stainless Steel Deployment Buckle with Push Buttons-Bracelet for Men Women-18mm 19mm 20mm 21mm 22mm 24mm

Purchased this band in 2018 and it's finally time for a new one as the clasp is starting not to hold. I like the fact that the thickness of the band compliments my Galaxy watch as the smartwatches have a thick casing. The only negative is it is not a quick release like many bands. The trade-off is the thickness for the convenience.

I bought 2 versions of the 21mm strap:Brown: it is ideal for my Orient bambino V2 with cream face and blue hands. it is vibrant brown, not too dark and not orange, it has a matte finish and there is a lot of depth in the color.Black: ideal for my OB V3 with gray dial, it manages to look stron, bulky and at the same time refined, it has bright matte finish.both straps are soft and do not need to be broken down, they also look more expensive and high quality than a lot that you may find in this sight for the same price.these are so good, that i finally decided to settle with these, it has been hard to find straps for my bambinos, i was doubtful of these because of the price, seemed to good to be truth, but after i saw them and felt them in person, i regret not purchasing them any sooner.

Chiming in to help buyers decide... Excellent bargain strap. Leather is decent, finish is good, stitching is great. Clasp does seem precision-made, however it does feel a bit loose/cheap. Rarely does the clasp pop open unexpectedly.. but it’s happened to me before. Once you break in the leather, it conforms nicely.. will take a few weeks of wear to get there. Very comfortable, nicely packed, and the bonus pins/springbars are a plus. Note on sizing- this does run small. Seems to be meant for wrists 6.25”-7.25”. IMO, this strap could sell for $20 and that’d still be fair. Very happy overall. I also purchased the non-double clasp deployment version, and that clasp feels slightly sturdier and hasn’t popped free on me, but is less convenient to take on and off the wrist. Hope this helps!

This strap is worth the price, ti came in a high quality package with the removal tool, extra pins, and a nice photographic instruction foldout piece. I used it to replace a band on a Citizen Eco Drive Solar with perpetual calendar and it worked great, and with the instructions and tools was easy to put it on. It is very stiff but I am okay with that as it molds to my wrist. The clasp is similar to the original on the Eco Drive except this one has more rounded spring loaded buttons, so should be more comfortable than the original.

This is a really nice watch band; looks good with the watch and the folding clasp is an elegant touch. I looked around and found that the clasp itself is frequently as much or more than this entire watchband. Nice deal. Now all I have to do is learn to secure the clasp quickly. It doesn't feel natural right now, I have to think my way through the steps, but I am confident that with practice I will be able to do it blindfolded.

Purchased it for an Omega Seamaster. Very good leather and high quality manufacture in general. Beautiful stainless steel "butterfly" action buckle that doesn't demerit the watch and is a breeze to don/doff. Came packaged with a handy strap tool and 4 fine spring bars. Took me about ten minutes to remove the bracelet and install, as the buckle came already attached to the short strap.At the going price when I ordered (early 08/2018) it was under 5% of the asking price for the genuine Omega "alligator" strap, which retails just under US$400 *without buckle*!! Adding insult to injury, the deployment buckle, if you don't have it, will set you off nearly another $400 at a "Summer Sale Price" at an internet strap retailer.For me, being not a politico Bigwig, not a Texas oil baron nor a Mexican mobster, finding this strap made a world of difference.

Let me begin my review by stating that I've been an Amazon customer for about 20 years, but find quality to be on the decline there. Amazon has become a cesspool of counterfeit products from name brands and low quality products from companies nobody has ever heard of before. When I see a bunch of five-star reviews like this, I am dubious, but figured it was worth taking a chance for $15 and I was right. This watch strap was excellent. In fact, it's better than a much more expensive Hadley Roma strap I bought previously. It arrived the next day. I don't have any complaints at all, but will note that the band is a little stiff at first. I softened it up easily with some leather conditioner.I have no affiliation with the manufacturer or vendor. I was not solicited by either to post a review, nor did I receive a discount or anything else from them in exchange for this review.

I wasn’t keen on spending 800+ dollars on a replacement band for my Tag Heuer. Nor was I excited about getting a “value” band replacement on a timepiece that deserves better. The band I received fit perfectly, looks like a factory option and the deployment clasp makes it easy to take on and off, just like the old band. I’m thinking of getting 2-3 more of these just to have spares. It is a truly excellent value.

I buy a lot off Amazon and never leave reviews but this really deserves one. Tissot are renowned for having unusual strap sizes, 19mm in my case and after being quoted £60 for a new strap I looked for a replica one. This is perfect. I've attached photos to see the similarity in the leather. The black o e being a bit worn now it's hard to see but it really looks exactly the same. Bonus being it even came with the tool to change it and after two minutes on YouTube I done it myself. The only gripe was the clasp was a bit naff but tue original tissot clasp even fits on the new strap so I swapped that over to and it's as good as new. If your looking for a replacement strap this will suit you perfectly and for £12 with the tool as well you can't get much better.

Needed a strap to replace the one a recently purchased Parnis (Homage to Panarai) watch as the supplied deployment buckle was pants (it was difficult to open poorly constructed and uncomfortable) which is totally opposite to the actual watch which is superb but I digress.After initially looking to replace the actual deployment buckle rather than the whole strap (the supplied leather strap was nice it was the deployment buckle that was rubbish) the better option was to buy a whole new strap with the deployment buckle after browsing through the multitude that Amazon had on the site I decided on this one as i liked the contrasting white stitching and the polished deployment buckle which would match the polished finish of my watch.the strap arrived promptly well wrapped with the strap in its own waxed paper bag which had the strap and deployment buckle, instruction leaflet and two spring bars. The strap and the deployment buckle are both of a high quality and look very nice.The strap was easy to attach to the watch which uses screw in bars ( much nicer) as opposed to spring bars and it was just a matter off unscrewing and removing the bars from the lugs and the watch strap was free reverse the operation with the new strap and job done :0) it looks imo much nicer with the contrasting white stitching and the deployment buckle is much much nicer with a firm clicking action when closing and springs open when the side buttons are depressed.the only niggle I have hence the 4* rating instead of 5 is like another poster has highlighted the part of the deployment buckle that governs the length of the strap so it fits your wrist snuggly does not click and stay shut which means sometimes it moves to a different hole in the strap when you are putting the watch on which means its too slack and you have to start again by sliding the buckle yo the correct hole and holding the clap down while trying to fold the deployment buckle closed :0( and just as frustrating when you come t take the watch off if this clasp is undone the whole strap slides undone in an instant which if not aware of this issue could end up with your watch falling onto the floor :0( not a nice scenario not sure what causes this to happen could be because I use the second hole nearest to the watch on the strap and the leather is slightly more padded nearer the watch because when the strap is not inserted in the clasp it does click shut but once the strap is inserted in any hole it will not click shut maybe i have been unlucky and got a rouge one but other than that and having to be aware of the niggly little issue its a nice strap for the money sort the niggle out and its 5* without a doubt

Bought to replace the bracelet strap on my Citizen eco-drive Chronometer, a replacement bracelet strap was more money than I wanted to pay.I’ve don’t really like conventional leather watch straps as they’re a fiddle to put on and soon start looking tatty.Never even heard of deployant watch straps before so I thought I’d give this one a try.It arrived ahead of its ETA and thanks to the supplied tool was easier to fit than I feared.Looks nice on the watch, the “leather?” Is quiet stiff, perhaps it will soften up with use.I’m still getting used to doing the strap up, it’s a bit like a double ended bracelet type catch. (There are videos on you tube if that doesn’t make any sense!)I’m quite pleased with the strap I think only time will tell wether I’d buy another one.

Ordered this is brown and black for an older Oris watch with a metal bracelet that was not performing well. At the price I knew the quality was not going to be as good as a manufacturers strap. However, it is very good for the price. The clasp works well and the strap came with a spring bar tool and spring bars. Very happy, I will not use it every day as I alternate watches but looking at the quality I expect it to hold up reasonable well. I saw one post about the clasp coming undone but can confirm this is now fixed and it closes firmly. Also the strap side clips in place so I feel it is secure on my wrist. Size..I have 7 inch wrist and the strap is just about acceptable, I am on the 4th hole from the end which means there is a little of the strap to thread through the hoops. My watch is average size, the distance between spring bars is about 42 mm. So I would not recommend this strap for a wrist size in excess of 7 1/4 inches.

I am happy with the quality of the strap and was happy that I was able to use the Omega closure mechanism from the original strap I was replacing unfortunately however the buckle side of the strap is 12mm shorter and the other side is 12mm longer than on the strap I was replacing, which means my watch now sits higher (further round) my wrist and not cental as it did before. This would not have been an issue if I had used the closure mechanism supplied with the watch which is also good quality, I just prefer to keep as much of the watch as possible original. If it had been the same dimensions as the original I would have given it the fifth star!
