Great color options. Fits good and looks good. I like the tang that helps pull pin against spring for easy installation. Make sure you measure your watch before you order to prevent from ordering the wrong size.

Takes patience to install but worth the effort. Sturdy black watch and is utilitarian and nice looking. This was a replacement for the same watch and purchased from same vendor three years ago, so that’s a pretty good testimonial.

In the realm of wristwatches, a good strap is akin to a well-tailored suit. It not only holds the timepiece securely in place but also contributes significantly to the overall aesthetic appeal and comfort. That said, I recently got my hands on the Ritche Quick Release Leather Watch Bands, designed for both men and women. Here's my take on this product, dissecting its every aspect to give you a balanced view.Upon arrival, the first thing that caught my eye was the neat packaging. The strap is placed in a bag with separate compartments for each end, ensuring they don’t rub against each other, which I found to be a thoughtful touch.Now, diving into the technicalities, the strap is made from Genuine Leather, which, although is the most affordable grade of real animal leather, surprised me with its quality given the price point of around $20. This strap from Ritche exudes a decent look, providing good value for money.Pros+ Pliability: Right out of the bag, the band is quite pliable, which gave me an impression that it won’t require a long break-in time.+ Texture and Stitching: The texture is smooth and pleasurable to the touch, and the stitching is pretty much flawless, adding to its visual appeal.+ Padding: The padding adds a nice dimension to the strap, striking a balance between softness and rigidity.+ Quick Release Feature: The band is very easy to attach due to its quick-release feature, which is a time saver and quite convenient.+ Aesthetic Appeal: It complements the look of my Tissot watch well, especially the blue accents. Although I ordered a mismatched buckle initially, they do offer a DLC version which is a great plus.Cons- Buckle Issue: There's a bit of a struggle to get the buckle to the right hole due to the added mass from the padding, especially when wearing it.- Length: For someone with a larger wrist like mine (7-3/4"), a longer strap would have been better to keep it centered below the wrist.- Durability Concerns: After some rigorous use, especially in a rough work environment, there were signs of wear and tear. A couple of reviews also noted that the band started falling apart after less than two months of use.- Material Authenticity: Although advertised as genuine leather, the feel of the material did raise some questions regarding its authenticity and comparison to full grain or top grain leather.In conclusion, the Ritche Quick Release Leather Watch Bands come across as a decent, budget-friendly option for those looking to spruce up their wristwatches. While it has its downsides in terms of durability and the buckle design, the aesthetic appeal, comfort, and easy attachment feature make it a worthy consideration for casual use or for watches that aren’t subjected to rough handling on a daily basis. The strap does have room for improvement, especially in terms of material quality and length options to cater to a wider range of wrist sizes.

I like my watch band. It’s very nice looking fits perfect and I think it’ll well. Wear well.

This was a great leather band for my pebble time 2. It was exactly the right size and it was soft against my skin. I bought two of them, one for my sport and one for regular use.Compared to more expensive ones, this really is the best value for money

I can't remember any time in my life that I've had a skin rash to anything but the first loop that is stitched near the buckle gave me a rash on my wrist. I wanted to maintain my step count so I put the watch on my other wrist in the same area of the watch band give my other wrist a rash. Looking at the band now it's where the black rolls over and touches skin, the brown areas of the band are fine they didn't cause any problems for me.The band was thoroughly washed and I attempted to break it in but I also shower with this all the time.

I was looking for a replacement watchband for my Garmin Venu 3S watch. I had a severe reaction to the silicone band that comes with the Garmin so I started a search for a leather band or something that would hold up. Initially it was rather difficult because nothing is directly advertised to fit this particular watch so if you’re in a similar situation as me this watchband, the 18 mm will fit the Garmin Venu 3S and it has been a wonderful. Its sleek and has made wearing my watch more comfortable. I will say that it is a bit stiff in the beginning so there is a small break-in period but once it molds to you, it’s pretty comfortable and it looks really nice.

Aparentemente ótimo produto

Correa de calidad con acabados premium.

Very easy to fit with little levers on the springs

I wish it was thinner.

I love the feel and look of this watch strap - it's a little stiff when you get it, but a little coconut oil rubbed in makes it soft and nice to wear. Lugs hold strong on my watch too. 5/5
