Wrist And Style Perlon Watch Strap

Consider me a very satisfied customer and I'm already a repeat customer! Details below. Caveats: These are my first perlon straps so I can't compare them to the quality of other brands. Customer Service: Let me first start by sharing my experience with their customer service as it's made me quite biased to their products. There was slight fraying on the tip of the strap when I received it. Since these are my first perlon straps, I emailed them a picture inquiring if this is normal. The rep, John, was immediate in offering a replacement. He also told me that slight fraying may happen and told me how I could use a lighter to help melt the tip to resolve the issue. This itself makes me want to endorse their product. Now on to the product itself! Comfort: These straps are incredibly comfortable. The weave makes them quite flexible, and they are thin enough that they don't dig into your wrists. I foresee the lightweight breathable material being an excellent choice for hot summers. There is one part of this strap which is scratchy; the very end under the buckle. The feel of the melted nylon is uncomfortable, but that is easily remedied by folding the tip under itself. I've attached a picture for reference. Aesthetics: I prefer dress watches over other tool/diver watches. However, a dress watch on a leather strap is far too formal for everyday wear. That's what led me to these perlon straps, and for that they are PERFECT. They compliment/dress down the watch nicely and the color choices let you add some personality as well. Similar to how a NATO strap adds some personality to a diver watch, a perlon strap is the equivalent for a dress watch. Ease of use: Because these slide over the spring bars on the watch, swapping them out takes seconds. Mixed with their price, it's easy and fun to own a collection of these straps that you match with your outfit or mood. I recently purchased my first quality time piece, and these straps (plus a formal leather strap) help with the versatility I need to justify owning a single quality time piece that I can wear for most occasions. Durability: I can't speak to their durability, but they seem well made. I also don't plan on wearing the same strap everyday so I suspect their lifespan to increase to a respectable length. Value: This is what has me sold on these products. Their affordable price lets me easily justify owning multiple colors for different outfits. Free returns and excellent customer service raise my confidence that if something doesn't suit me, I can get it corrected easily. These straps are well worth a try.

Introduced in the 1960s, braided Perlon straps are a great slip-on watch strap for tropic climes and temperatures. They wash easily, regain their shape with a little massaging, and can complement any watch in various colors. They're a great addition for dive watches in summer, and adapt to water sports very well due to their quick drying qualities. This Wrist and Style braided strap is good, not as fine a weave as Eulit Kristall Perlon braided straps, possibly like their Panama braid (I don't have one to compare). The buckle is a solid, heavy work of art, but not curved so the strap forms a little bump under the shirt cuff; it's not a problem under a dress shirt. The heat finishing on each end is a bit crude (I had to re-trim the buckle end on mine with a small butane heat gun), but does not easily fray. The fabric keeper is a very snug fit on the single thickness of the strap, and makes it hard to get the point through it on my wrist. I hope this will be remedied with repeated use. WAS could stand to assemble the keepers around two thicknesses of strap as they are meant to be used. (I slide the keeper under the short, buckle end so that I don't have the keeper against my skin. Otherwise the keeper would have to accommodate 3 layers of strap.) This style of buckle allows adjustment of the strap length from buckle to point, even though the braid allows infinite fastening points. To reduce wear and tear on the same place you put the tongue, you can adjust the strap a little from week to week. I also gently wash these straps in tepid water, rinse and towel dry after wearing, to prolong the lifetime. WAS' strap shows little signs of wear after a few weeks of use and care, and holds up to to even a larger 42mm dive watch. N.B. Amazon's fulfillment mislabeled a 22mm black strap as 20mm dark grey, so I received the wrong strap. WAS promptly sent me a replacement at no charge. Thanks, guys!

Very nice Watch Strap! Found a vintage ( 2003 ) Timex Watch hidden in my dresser drawer recently, and decided to try and bring it back to life. It's so old that I'm pretty sure that the original band would probably not be available. Searched through several band / strap replacement possibilities on Amazon, and decided on this one. I really like this strap because it is thin enough that it loops around the spring pins very nicely, and once installed on the watch, the watch stays put. Also ... the length is adjustable under the buckle ( I needed to shorten mine a bit ). There are several colors and widths to choose from, and the one I selected for my watch looks, and fits GREAT!!! When this strap is on my wrist, it's very comfortable, because the "tightness" can be adjusted as needed. I'd definitely recommend this watch strap to anyone needing a replacement band / strap. Very functional, and has a VERY NICE look about it! Seems nice and strong, and I suspect that it will last a good long time.

Wrist And Style Perlon Watch Strap - Light Grey | 20mm I had high hopes for this strap based on the reviews, but sadly it just could not deliver. I love the look of Perlon and Nato straps and I own quite a few of them. They are great inexpensive options to change the look of your wrist ware. This one was purchased to be used with a Panerai Laminor (PAM 005) Lets start with the good: (The Price) -The price is obviously the selling point here. In the world of watch straps / accessories, anything under $50 is a bargain and anything under $20 is a steal - The look and feel of the buckle is great. It is clearly made of high quality steel. - The construction of the nylon weave is also high quality. It looks to be very durable. - The strap can easily adjusted to any wrist. The pin points are nearly infinite. Now the not so good: (Uncomfortable to the point of unwearable) - Immediately when I opened the package and felt the strap, I was turned off. It did not have the soft and supple feel that these straps are known to have. It felt almost rough to the touch. - The strap itself is way too thin. Placed side-by-side it is about the thickness of your average credit card. This makes the strap feel off balance, or "top-heavy" when it is paired with the heavier professional (divers, military watches, chronometers, pilot ) watches which these straps are intended to be paired with. (Think Panerai, Omega, IWC, Rolex) If you put any watch on this strap with a case heavier than your overage G-Shock, it is going to feel off balance. - The strap end which has been melted to keep it from fraying is EXTREMELY uncomfortable. After only 10-15 minutes of wear, I had a red blotch on the underside of wrist the size of a quarter from where the rough end had been rubbing my wrist raw. Overall I think the strap is just ok. It has great potential to be great, but the nylon is just too rough, too thin and the underside needs a better solution.

I have the black 22mm Perlon strap. Some question the difference between Perlon and regular nylon (ballistic or otherwise.) Let me say there is a word of difference. Perlon is light, flat and "weavy" while the other type is more like dense, thick canvas. This will give minimal added height to any watch you use it with. As a side benefit, the weave is open enough to "breathe" freely so no hot, sweaty band issues here! No buckle strap holes either. Call it an infinitely adjustable watch band. The actual buckle used on these is indeed stainless steel with a nicely brushed finish. All seems a very fine quality product. I plan on getting more soon. I'm comparing this to a black 22mm ZULU4, 4 ring, with SS buckle, side by side. Both are nice, but the 22mm black Perlon band is totally different in every aspect. There's a equally slim strap "keeper" that add virtually nothing to the thickness of the band. The ZULU4 is heavy, thicker and bulky in comparison. That's good for some with a bigger watch. The Perlon can be at home with, for example, a 1930s era Bulova tanker (think thin, rectangular, curved back) style watch or a larger Orient Mako divers styled watch. The ZULU would overwhelm the daintier, dressier Bulova and look quite out of place! So, now we really have two choices to suit a watch and needs. Hopefully, these Perlon straps will stay below $13 USD and be a great catch!

Expanded like crazy once it got wet. a good 2mm too big for my watch now. Not a stainless steel buckle as I can see brass through the silver finish. I have very small wrist - like 6.25in around and because the band expanded width wise when it got wet, it also shrunk length wise. That means I have the band completely maxed out and it still just barely fits on my wrists So anyone with normal wrists beware... This expansion also ruins the strap keeper part as the wide band doesn't fit well through it, resulting in even more bunching. I don't think this is actually perlon as other perlon straps I've owned haven't reacted this way to getting wet, It is also much less stiff than my other straps. Overall I am very frustrated by this product, especially at the price. The buckle is obviously not steel, which the seller MUST know, it is pretty obvious. Plus the strap is very poorly made, which may not be the sellers fault although it is still a bad product.

I have an average size female wrist and have been trying various bands for my Citizen field style watch (silicone, leather, nato, metal mesh). The band that came with the watch was too stiff and too long. The metal mesh band is nicely adjustable and looks great but is heavy for every day use, the silicone is too long, holes are wrong and it's kind of hot, leather just wasn't right (leather and silicone were repurposed from an old fitness tracker), and the nato is somewhat adjustable and light, but still not quite "it." Kind of ridiculous spending this much time and energy on a watch band, but I guess if you're reading this, you get it.... I finally found the band for me - this Perlon. It is so light it feels almost like paper. I love how I am hole-independent now because of the weave and even the overall length can be adjusted by sliding the strap at the buckle end to make it longer or shorter. It's dressy enough to dress up and casual enough to dress down. A perfect all occasion band. I like it so much I've already ordered 3 more in different colors. I'm not hard on watch bands and have only had it for about a week so I don't know how it will hold up over time. But in reading about Perlon, it should be pretty sturdy. Only downside is that since the band is essentially weightless, now I notice the weight of the watch itself. I can live with that.

I was looking for a dark blue nylon strap to match the dial on my Timex Weekender, but I didn't want it to look plain and ordinary. The braided perlon strap is very unique looking, which is exactly what I was looking for. The dark blue color of the strap is accurate in person as it is in the picture. The strap itself feels very thin and flimsy, but it seems to be well made. I can't say for sure if the buckle is actually premium quality as advertised; on the contrary, it does appear to be very basic compared to the buckles on my other straps. It's worth mentioning that it's somewhat of a tedious process trying to loop the strap through the buckle every time I put it on, but I guess it takes some getting used to. Once it's on your hand, it looks very nice and distinctive. Although it's a little itchy to wear, it's still very comfortable. Overall, I'm very satisfied.

جيد جداً نوعًا ما

Very happy with my purchase. Color is slightly different but it may be just screen settings.

A bit stiff from new but will soften up with use I m sure.

This bracelet is easy and quick to install. It is not the most comfortable, which is why I gave it only 4 stars, but for my diving watch it feels way more fit for the job than the leather strap it came with. I don't know about durability but it feels robust.

Good shipping time. Item as described and looks nice
