Skydon Watch Band with Deployment Clasp - Alligator Grain Leather Watch Strap 16mm 17mm 18mm 19mm 20mm 21mm 22mm 23mm 24mm - Choose of Color & Width

Pins were slightly crooked so had to straighten them out but product quality is otherwise excellent. Easy to install and wear. Watch looks sharp and gets noticed. Very happy.

Good replacement, nice look, well made, good price, fits true, easy installation, functional.

I ordered this for my luxury omega speed master since the original black leather straps from omega were in back order. Really good quality for the price.

I was trying to find a replacement for my factory Bulova band which had worn out. The band came with an installation tool and was very easy to install. The band was not as long as the factory Bulova band and barely fit my wrist. Since it fit and I do not wear the watch often I decided to keep the band. Plus I liked the little tool it came with. The quality of the band itself was very good and what I expected for the price.

Skydon 22mm watch band with deployment clasp, black alligator grain leather, fits seiko 5 snkn13j1 perfect. Went on the watch with included spring bars and tool. This is new leather, so I softened it with mink oil, now it is very soft and conforms to my wrist, no irritation. Never had this type of strap before. Figured out what hole for my wrist size, pull buckle open and push buckle pin through that hole, you are ready to pass hand through. First snap the 12 o'clock side into clasp, then slide the 6 o'clock side the tang end with holes through the buckle and strap rings and press until it snaps flat.

Very difficult closure—cannot close properly—leaves her strap is fine, but hard to close.

It’s a good quality watch strap for the money,it should enclose with instructions of how to get the strap through the buckle !

I got this to replace a similar band on a Raymond Weil watch. If you look at one, you will see that they look very similar, but a genuine band would be far more expensive. This one uses a different style of clasp, which is a matter of taste. Many people will buy this specifically because of the clasp. I preferred to use my original clasp. The only issue I had, which is not the fault of this strap, is that since there's no center prong on the clasp, there was none on the leather. So if you want to use it with a different buckle, you will need to cut a small notch. I didn't find the name brand version, but based on experience I can tell you that it would probably have cost a hundred dollars more. I wouldn't say that the quality is identical. The look is very close, but it's much less flexible. It looks more durable. Even if it turns out not to be, at this price it wouldn't matter. It would have been worth the price to me even without the buckle, and if you want a deployment clasp that makes this even more of a bargain. Compared to the picture, the one I got has less sheen, which is not a problem for me, but it might not look like exactly the picture without polishing it. It still looks good though.
