time+3-Ring Military Style Distressed Vintage Leather Watch Strap Brown - Choose Hardware & Width (18mm,20mm,22mm,24mm)

I ordered the brown/brushed in both the 20mm and 22mm sizes.I wore the 20mm today on my Seiko SPB143 and I wear the 22mm on my Seiko SARV001, but you could pair these with almost anything….I’ve even liked it with a custom mod Seiko 5 and it looks great.I like the distressed look of the leather, and it is soft and breaks in easily.They are definitely worth the money compared to other straps.

Trusted the other reviews and am very happy with the look and feel of this band. Quality, soft leather with a somewhat distressed/aged look and nice looking rings. Have it on the basic Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Stainless Steel Watch with Day/Date display, BM8180-03E. Originally I bought time+ 18mm 5-ring NATO ZULU Leather Military Watch Strap Vintage Brown, but it was way too bulky for my wrist. Thankfully, I was able to return that painlessly and pick this 3-ring one up.I was also very happy that time+ included the spring bars as well as the tool to install them. Got me hooked on the NATO-style bands!

Too thin for me, however texture it's nice and it looks greay!

ProsLooks nice.Very nice polished thick hardware.Nice color.ConsThin leather. Is going to stretch significantly.The color has already started to fade at stress joints (day 1). It doesn't seem like its going to last.Overall it's ok. Wish it was thicker. It's not a lifetime band.

This is a fantastic strap that far exceeded my expectations. I've had a lot of leather straps but the "oil leather" used here is amazing. It looks, feels, and smells like leather should and is extremely comfortable. It's also thick enough for me to be confident it will last, but thin enough to not add to the thickness of my watch. My only nitpick is that it isn't nearly as "distressed" as in the product images. It looks fantastic on my creme dial Seagull 1963 Chronograph.

Love it. It's soft and pliable. The vintage look goes perfect with my Laco pilot watch. Yes it is thin, but it just barely fits between the pins and watch case so it's by design. The areas that have lightened up by stretching and bending the strap will darken over time or I will speed it up a little but with a conditioner.

Very kool nato strap!!Ultra thin and light, and will look super nice with any watch face you decide to put on. Not bulky at all and very smooth on your skin. Happy with this product.

I own a Seiko Cocktail Time, equipped with a standard black patent leather strap on a deployant clasp, too formal for daily wear. My goal was to transform the watch's appearance for casual wear. Hence, I opted for a distressed brown leather NATO strap – the one I'm reviewing here.I truly sought a distressed leather 2-piece strap with quick-release functionality, but my 8" wrist requires extra-long sizing. Modern watch straps should universally incorporate quick-release mechanisms, leaving traditional spring bars outdated. Standing at 6' tall with a medium build, my wrists conform to current male standards – not excessively large. It puzzles me that the market, teeming with watch straps and makers, falls short in offering "extra long" straps with quick release.Unable to locate a 2-piece, extra long, distressed leather, quick release strap, I settled for this distressed leather NATO. Attaching the spring bars, particularly without the support of the watchband, proved challenging. Despite this, I managed to secure them. For this watch (and presumably many others, given the classic design of the Cocktail Time), threading the strap through this gap was a snug fit. Initially, I viewed this as advantageous, as it meant the watch would remain steady on the strap. Regrettably, this snugness turned out to be detrimental, possibly due to substandard leather dyeing. The strap, particularly the lower half with the holes, lost its dye while being threaded through, resulting in an unattractive lighter stripe of non-dyed leather at the hole's location.The ruined appearance compelled me to either revert to my old strap or endure the inconvenience of returning this one to a retailer for a refund. Yet, I chose another path. Employing clipper lubricating oil on a cloth, I managed to redistribute the dye, concealing the non-dyed stripe. Despite this ordeal, I decided to keep the strap. On the bright side, it does enhance the Cocktail Time's aesthetics, and I can now utilize the watch more frequently.However, I find it pertinent to caution others. The dye applied to this strap appears prone to wearing off when threaded through the case and spring bars, as it did in my case. This is far from ideal and warrants critical attention. My rating of "generous" two stars reflects my mixed feelings about this product.

商品紹介の掲載写真と比べると少し明るいですが、文字盤のオールドラジウム色と調和も取れてます。また、革の質感もマットな感じで気に入りました。

There are two negatives for me. First, the strap is very thin. I purchased another strap in a different color and it’s much thicker. Makes me wonder if there is a consistently issue. Second, there is a plastic feel to the edges of the leather. I can’t quite tell what it is. With all that said I still get compliments from the strap, however it isn’t my favorite.

その高品質の製品。革の厚さはそれが何年も続くことを保証します。ただし、時計とバネの隙間が薄すぎると収まらない場合があります。革の厚みは1.7mm近くと推定しています。

質感も良く、気に入っています。皮製品は夏場では汗が気になるので、ナイロン製などと併用したりしていましたが、これは安価なので、これからどんどん使って行きたいと思っています。

色合いオッケー
