Men's Swiss Army Style Watchband - Color Brown Size: 20mm Watch Band - by JP Leatherworks

A good replacement watchband for my everyday Timex Expedition watch. Actually a little better quality than the original. The only reason I didn't give it 5-stars is the little retainer bands -- the loops that hold the extra length of band after latching the buckle. The first loop is fixed, sewn into the buckle fixture so it doesn't move. The second loop is loose so you can slide it along the length to hold either a short bit of extra strap or a long tail. This is a common design. However, on this strap the second loop is a little too large to be snug, so it slides wherever it wants to go and doesn't keep the tail of the strap secure. I repeatedly have to adjust it. It doesn't really affect use, it's just annoying.

Some of the other Swiss Army Style watchbands mentioned fraying because the material was nylon like. This one hasn't had such an immediate issue since I bought it (roughly a week ago).Please be aware it doesn't come with Pins. I didn't notice that when I bought it, but I used the pins from my old watchband.It has the exact look I wanted. Not as comfortable as an all leather wristband, but I'm not complaining.***UPDATE 6 months later:: I really love this band. I took it off at a friend's house and it didn't withstand "Rocky," my friend's dog, while we were watching netflix...I wear a lot of bracelets and other stuff and most things don't last on my wrists for very long. This thing didn't really weather. I wore it all day everyday, camping swimming, beaching, sleeping, showering - everything. And it got more comfortable after the first week. Definitely recommend. It's got that relaxed look to tame down any fancy watch your mom might have got ya.Buying it again, and will do again if another dog gets to it...

As pointed out elsewhere, the long end is a bit shorter in length than standard by 5/8" (17mm). The buckle strap length is a good match to my original band. 20mm width is great fit for Timex Expedition and appears comparable in appearance / quality to the OEM strap that it replaces.Supplemental observations July 2016: Revised rating down just a bit from5 to 4 due to durability not what I would have liked and expected, as the long end was nearly cracked through in the leather portion after two and a half years of service.. However, I did purchase this same exact item again as a replacement. Size wise, probably not a great choice if your wrist measures much more than 7 inches around.

I like the band itself. Nice quality and sturdy. Two stars since it arrived without the 20mm pins to attach it to my watch. Not sure if this was a mistake, or that it just doesn't come with them....?I actually had an old version of this band I bought elsewhere, but broke one of the 20mm pins. Figured if I was going to spend $4 for 2 pins, I'd just go with a totally new band with 2 new pins. Most disappointed when it arrived without them.Can't really complain, as the product description doesn't state if it comes with pins, BUT it also doesn't state that they don't.....Anywho, I found a good deal on 200 20mm watchband pins, so after another $8, I now have a functional watch band AND an additional 198 20mm band pins to spare!!! So in the long run, yes I would purchase from this dealer again. Or at least the next 99 bands I need till the pins run out.....

The seller sent the wrong bands. I was expecting a brownish watch band, as the description stated, but instead got a cherry-brown colored bands (yes it was still brown but cherry brown makes it more reddish). Furthermore, it was not the same band I ordered for. However, I will say that I do like the band that I received and thought it was a good buy for the price I paid. Just upset that I received the wrong ones.

I ordered this band for a low end Wenger watch. Received it in two days. Looks just like the picture. The non-buckle end was apx 1/2" shorter than the non-buckle end on the original band. The buckle end was the same length as the original band's buckle end. I am using the second to the last hole from the watch. Large wrists need to look for something else.

Love the watch band. My only concern is the quality of the leather parts. Prior bands like this one have deteriorated over a short span of time. I am an outdoorsman and my watch is exposed to all kinds of conditions.

It's a leather watchband for $12, so while I guess it is a functional replacement for my broken band, it is nowhere near same quality. Leather is pretty cheap and inflexible. The loops that hold the watch band are loose. The metal buckle is thin and cheap. Further, every watchband I've ever purchased comes with a spring tool to help take out the springs and re-insert them. This band did not. I have a feeling it will be a few short months until I am looking to replace this replacement.
