STUNNING SELECTIONALPINE Hand Made Genuine Vintage Leather Watch Strap with Quick Release Steel Spring Bars - Black, Brown, Grey, Blue and Tan in Sizes 18mm, 20mm, 22mm, 24mm (fits Wrist Size 6 1/4 inch to 8 inch)

Very nice watchband fits my watch perfectly and I really like the tempered style. Leather quality seems on par with my previous full grain leather band. It is comfortable to ware, smells great, looks even better, and it's reasonably priced.The only thing to be aware of is that the band is a bit long. I'm 5'9" 165lb and I have to use the second to last hole, might not be the best choice for smaller people.

I love the color, quality and once I was able to get the band connected onto my watch, which took some doing, because the watch is very large and round so the watch shape impeded somewhat with connecting the 22mm band getting the tiny dowels to fit into the tiny holes on either side of the metal watch connectors, but once the band was on, it works, feels, and looks great. One thing I love about genuine leather is, once it’s handled and gets a little wear, it gets softer and more supple. Just working to get the straps connected on either side of the watch was enough to soften this band. I’m very happy with my purchase. Buckle side goes on top of the watch for righty’s.

quality top grain leather with good color and solid hardware. the second strap keeper is too large, so it doesn't always do the best job but I'm sure it's not like this for every strap. I would buy again.

I replaced my broken Timex Waterbury band with this one and it couldn’t have been easier. Even swapped out the buckle with the old hardware to match the face. The leather is quite stiff, but I like that it is smooth and doesn’t have excess stitching which adds bulk. More of a warning for Timex wearers- I had to return the size Timex specs listed the band would be (22mm) for a smaller (20mm) band, but that has no bearing on the quality of this band or the seller. Photos are after about 2 months daily wear. Still needs a little breaking in, and I may need to punch another hole for a better fit as the face of my watch is larger and makes the fit a bit looser on my wrist. Would fully recommend.

This is a nice, soft band, very comfortable. I wish it came with a butterfly clasp black/silver

What quality leather means to people can vary a LOT. This strap is comfortable and the hardware is good. The quick release on the spring bar is very nice. But the leather, despite saying it is genuine, does not feel high quality. This will not patina nicely as it accumulates wear and scratches And absorbs oil. Leather scratches and smooths out and shines as it absorbs oil. It is a natural material. This doesn’t show signs of wear at all actually which is what makes it really not seem like real leather. It feels plasticy, though soft, but will probably last for a while if treated well. The color is good though so at least it looks good and is comfortable. If you want real nice leather you will probably have to pay more.

I've just received the watch strap yesterday and I'm very pleased with it. The build quality is very good. The stitching is well done, and the 18mm straps fit perfectly on my watch. There were also no issues with the pins they fit perfectly. The one minor issue is that the straps are a little too stiff out of the box, but by oiling the leather, letting it soak in and then working the leather by gently bending it I was able to make it very supple. Overall I would recommend this product. After a couple of months I will update if any changes and add more pictures if needed.

My time keeper is a round, portable machine. Mine is of the variety that tells the same time twice a day (no AM or PM), so you need to look outside to know which half of the day it is. To attach to my forearm (lower), I require a belt and fastener system. The vintage leather watch strap arrived yesterday. With all of my watch-making tools at the ready, I quickly saw that they would not be necessary and laughed hysterically for some time. The normally inaccessible steel bar attaching the belt to the watch had tiny protrusions on each end, allowing the time teller to compress the spring, thereby disengaging the strut from the sockets on the time keeper frame. Minutes later, the vintage belt and fastener was installed. I laughed and laughed, taking a quick break to go to the counter and order another Frappuccino. The first fasten was completely intuitive and did not require a manual. A series of holes traverse the center of the belt. The belt passes through a steel opening. A hinged rod engages a hole - pull on the belt, and the rod keeps the belt pressed against the steel loop. (Don't forget to feed the belt through the subsequent leather loops - this is a common mistake.) After some experimentation, I have found the exact hole to use so that the time machine stays on my lower arm.
