Good quality silicone band for beater watch.
I have been looking for a good quality waterproof silicone band for my beater watch. This fits the bill. Watch stays put on my wrist as I like it snug. the silicone definitely helps keep it in place. I did remove one of the "quick release" pins and used the original standard watch pins Don't want the band popping off form an inadvertent release. Will update in a few months as I wear this daily with my beater watch do work around the yard and house, so it will get lots of abuse.UPDATE: After only ONE day, the single "quick release" pin popped out. When I put the band on my watch the other day, I used one standard pin and one of the included quick-release pins. Now the watch just popped off my wrist when I bumped against a doorway. NOT GOOD! I was skeptical of the quick-release pin. Removed that quick-release pin! All good past few days. Nice inherent feature with the silicone band is it STAYS put. I like to wear my watch snug up my arm before the pisiform bone. I am not like some people who let their watch flop around on their wrist.

Good quality, looks good, feels good.
I ordered the straps in color Black and Blue, the later turn out to be darker that I had expected but nevertheless it's a beautiful color. The quality it's excellent fit perfect on my Xiaomi S1 and i guess it will fit in any 22mm strap watch including the galaxy watch.I am very happy with the product which I highly recommend.

Great replacement watch strap
I have a watch with a colorful face, and its bright blue plastic strap broke. This Archer strap is a good replacement. These straps come in lots of colors; I couldn't match the blue of the strap I had, but the blue Archer strap I bought is a pretty color. The new strap is more comfortable than the original, because it's softer. It feels sturdy. I like the built-in pin and spring, very easy to install. Very satisfied!

Perfect for my Swatch x Omega!
The Velcro band that came with the watch originally was borderline too small for my wrist, and I usually find another band for watches.I legit have never seen the quick release style of Watch bands until I found this one. Realized it’s far more common, but the quick release makes install soo easy. Product feels nice.First day using. If/when an error occurs I’ll update mt review.

Easy to install
I like the little tabs on the pins which makes installing the band very easy. Even for an old guy like me with bad eyes. It's very comfortable, but durability is hard to determine since I just got it.

Nice quality
This silicone band is thinner than I expected so I am a little more careful when putting it on. Other than that, it has met my expectations.

Love this band!!!
From a person who's always worn leather or metal strap bands, let me say....I am impressed!!! The quick release is A MUST...thank you for this.The band is so smooth. Granted I've only been wearing for just over a week, I really dig the silicone. The color (pale pink) matched my Fossil watch perfectly! The strap picks up lint, but that's not really a big deal for me.I absolutely recommend. I purchased the 18mm and I have a snug fit.

Great Band | You Will Want a Spring Bar Tool
When I bought this, there was a $2 shipping charge-but the overall cost was still less than comparable products. Now it looks like shipping is covered by Prime. The 20mm band was a great replacement for a dried out leather band for a Teno watch I've had for awhile. I like the feel of it a lot.The little sliding tabs that are supposed to make it easy to install/swap for different colors are a good idea, but for course, you still have to take off the old band. You'll need a spring bar tool for that probably (and in my particular case I needed the tool to help install it too, notwithstanding the sliding tabs, due to the curve of the watch case). Fortunately, I have a watch repair tool kit that has served me well over the years--good for band and battery replacement. If you don't have a spring bar release tool, you supposedly can do it with a very small flathead screwdriver or a razor blade--think something thin enough to slip between the band edge and the lugs--or even some dental floss, but I can't vouch for the efficacy of that last method.

Nach 5 Monaten
Super Armband an sich. Silicon fühlt sich prima an und man kann damit wirklich überall hin. Das beste überhaupt finde ich, dass es nie stinkt, wie z.B. Leder nach gewisser Zeit.Problem liegt daran dass das Silicon um den Metalstiften rum nicht verstärkt ist, leider. Dann wären die Bänder wirklich das beste auf der Erde, aber so, nach gerade mal 5 Monaten war ich kurz davor meine Uhr zu verlieren. Ich hatte meine Bedenken am Anfang so ein Gummi Armband zu tragen, aber ich dachte mir man hat bestimmt an alles gedacht. Offenbar nicht so ganz. Man hätte eigentlich einigen Fäden durch das Silicon ziehen können, damit falls mal so ein Riss passiert, man den Hinweis bekommt einen neuen Armband zu kaufen, aber nicht seine teuere Uhr dadurch riskiert..

Nice quality strap but...
Nice product, good quality, feels good, fits well. But... I bought the correct size - 20mm - for my watch, a Citizen, which has had several replacement straps in its lifetime. However, the 20mm strap had a little too much wiggle room between the lugs of my watch and looked too small, and the quick-release strap pins were also a little too small to hold the strap on securely and pinged or fell out with little provocation. So... I sent the 20mm back and ordered the 22mm. The strap fitted perfectly - but the strap-pins were too long and just would NOT fit in between the watch lugs. I nearly sent it back, but then decided to replace the quick-release Archer pins with the original one from my watch. Bingo. Strap fits perfectly, is secure and looks very good. So... a good product but a few sizing issues.

Brilliant addition to the Samsung Galaxy 46mm watch
I purchased the Archer strap/s as an alternative to the standard black offering on my Samsung Galaxy 46mm watch, which requires a 22mm fitting. As there is a 20% promotion discount when ordering three, I took the plunge and ordered four in different colours, Midnight Blue, Portland Orange, Naples Yellow and Venetian Red. The good news is that the 20% discount was applied to all of my order. It was a bit of a gamble ordering so many without seeing them first but it paid off as they are a great alternative to the boring black strap that comes as standard on the watch. So much so that I have since ordered a further two straps in British Racing Green & White. A total of 6; one for almost every day of the week and great for when travelling.They really complement the watch, definitely look the part, and are a perfect fit. The quick release pins slide effortlessly and securely into the watch body. The material is a very tactile and smooth finish silicone. I have worn the straps for nearly 24 hours a day for the past week since receiving them and there is no sign whatsoever of any skin irritation.Its too early to comment about the durability but they definitely feel decent enough. The standard Samsung strap is a bit thicker where it joins the watch and has shaped cutaways for the watch lugs (see enclosed picture comparing the standard Samsung black strap with the Archer Venetian Red equivalent). The Samsung strap is also 3mm longer. Non of which makes any notable difference to the fit and function of the Archer strap. You can see what it looks like in the enclosed picture when fitted to the Samsung watch. This being the Portland Orange strap.The Archer Strap is a bit more expensive than some other silicone straps being offered on Amazon and elsewhere but I speak from personal experience when I say that it is infinitely better than the ones I made the mistake of ordering first. Which I returned due the robustness (or lack of), of the clasp, and the fact that the pins were far too short to engage securely with the watch body.There is no doubt that the Archer strap is a nice quality product and a fitting addition to the Samsung 46mm watch..

Nice strap, silver buckle makes it look cheap.
I purchased the strap in Portland Orange for my Black Tickwatch Pro (22mm), the orange strap fits and looks amazing but the colour of the buckle Archer has chosen to include (shiny silver), makes this strap look very cheap, not just my opinion.I looked up black buckles from Archer the price is a ridiculous £9.99, when the strap AND silver buckle is £13.49. It is a shame that Archer do not offer the straps with a choice of black or silver buckle, or at least the option to add one for a reduced price (from their choice of 13 coloured buckles Archer sell https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B071D3KZNH).I chose to purchase the black buckle for £2.99 from https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B06WV7XP6T, much more realistic price £13.49 + £2.99 rather than Archers £13.49 + £9.99.

Finger weg - es kann sonst teuer werden
Der Halterungsstift ist nicht gesichert und öffnet sich bei Belastung um weniger als einen Millimeter, das reicht aus um aus dem Loch zu rutschen und die Uhr zu verlieren. Fällt diese ungünstig, wird es sehr teuer.
