Barton Elite Silicone Watch Bands - Quick Release - Choose Color - 18mm, 19mm, 20mm, 21mm, 22mm, 23mm & 24mm Watch Straps

Overall, this watch strap is fantastic. The strap is very soft, flexible, and comfortable, as only silicone straps can be. But, the Barton outshines the rest, because it is so thin. This makes it much more comfortable than the bulky ones from companies like Seiko. Also, the two tone look is fantastic, and the special keeper that holds the tail of the strap in place is brilliant.I only have two very minor gripes that I will total up to be one negative star. First, the spring bars on the 22mm model are not 22mm. They are slightly longer than that, rendering them unusable since they can't fit in between the lugs of the watch. I had to pry out the spring bars and replace them with regular spring bars. The 20mm version fit fine.The second minor issue that I had was that the colors just aren't very vibrant. The black looks very linty, and the orange is a little pale.Additionally, while the thinness of the strap feels great, it also feels like it may not be very durable. I'm not taking off any stars for this, but it's just something for me to watch over time.Again, these are very minor issues, and overall the straps are fantastic.

My Seiko SRPA83 “baby tuna” is a large watch at 53 mm across. I never could get used to the silicone band that came with the watch because it is too bulky and far too long for my small wrist. I tried bands from other manufacturers but never found one I liked until now. The Barton’s band is thin, conforms to my wrist really well and is supplied with both a long and short strap. The shorter strap fits my wrist perfectly. The band features two keepers & the strap doesn’t wrap all the way around to the watch case because it is the correct length.Seiko dive watches use a “fat” spring bar that is 2.5 MM diameter and it will not push through the strap holes without a bit of lubrication. A drop of hand soap helps the bar slide in easily. Be sure to look at the Barton’s video that shows how to remove the quick release bars that are supplied with this band. They are fine for many watches but they are too small for any of the Seiko dive watches. All in all a great band and I am totally satisfied. Highly recommend.

After just a few days the clasp switch slid into the band and the band broke. It seems as though the holes for the pin levers are too large and a weak point of the band. Update. Received a replacement because the band was so comfortable and well thought out i really wanted to try again. Second one similar problem. Pin shiftes through the pin hole and pierced through the front band. Such a shame they went cheap on the material because otherwise it's an excellent design.

I have several canvas Bartons that I like a lot, so I decided to try out a silicone band. It's very comfortable, more than I expected it to be, but it has approximately zero durability. First, the strap started to tear by the quick-release nub on the spring bar. When I went to try to remove the band, I found that the spring bar was stuck and wouldn't release. I tried to use a spring bar tool like you would use on a regular spring bar, and pushing the strap out of the way resulted in further tearing of the strap. It is now ruined. To make matters worse, I couldn't even get the spring bar out with the tool, and ended up cutting the spring bar with snips to get it off the watch.So, very high marks for comfort, fit, and style, and zero marks for durability. Don't buy these straps.UPDATE:Barton reached out with an offer to replace the strap, but they tried to mail it to the street address of an Amazon locker, which resulted in it going to a restaurant/bar instead of the locker (USPS can't deliver to Amazon lockers). Now I'm minus the replacement as well. They have since stopped responding to my emails. Not too impressive. Anyway, lesson learned.

Soft, flexible and so light I barely feel I’m wearing it. Cleans up easily. Buckle is smooth and has a sheen without being super shiny (which I like). The strap also has a loop with a raised nub which slots into the end of the strap. Didn’t know I need this feature until I realized it was staying in place all day and I wasn’t constantly fidgeting with it to slide it back into place, as I usually do. Don’t like it? There’s a regular loop, too. Want a shorter strap to tuck in? They throw in one of those, too. Great strap, great quality, easily the most comfortable one I’ve worn.

Awesome Band!!! I did plenty of shopping around before pulling the trigger on this brand watch band. I needed an everyday band to substitute for the original SS band of my Ball EMII Diver. With all the awesome reviews on this particular band I was convinced in its reliability.Pros 1) It was very easy to install and with the 2 sizes 6 o'clock position pieces included it makes it easy to fit especially for my smaller wrist.Pro 2) Its very comfortable and lightweight but also pretty rugged enough to sleep with and shower with.Pro 3) The locking capability of the second loop keeps the band in place unlike other bands where the loops scoot off the band or too high up near the buckle and the band flaps away.The only con I can come up with is wanting to buy another one for my Other Ball watch and Tag Aquaracer. LolFor the price, fit, comfort and ease it's a no brainer. I'm very Happy with this band and will definitely be buying another set for my collection

**Update**Whilst comfortable, and worn daily, the band has already split where the pin goes through the hole, meaning it now sits one hole looser than it needs to be.For the money, not impressed that it's broken already.******Bought this to replace a torn leather Barton strap (watch caught on something and the leather tore).Interestingly, I find this more comfortable than the leather, probably as a) it has more holes so more finely adjustable and b) doesn't stretch over time.The locking nub is one of those things you wonder why it hasn't been done before. Simple but effective.I don't find it over-sweaty, and it doesn't seem like a lint magnet either.

Bought this to match the colours on my Seiko Vampire Monster, the black strap with crimson underside match the dial brilliantly - they look fantastic together (see pic!). I'm disappointed then that it can't be an enduring match. Many Seiko dive watches have much thicker than normal spring bars, which includes the monster. The quick release spring bars in this strap are really thin, and although they fit into the watch lugs - there's plenty of space for them to rattle around and over time they'll likely scratch up and wear into the watch lugs. Which means although this strap looks fantastic - I can't leave it on the watch. Might keep it for the occasional wear, but will have to find something else which can take the thick spring bars.Update: I bought some skinner spring bars for dive watches from Watch Gecko, and these seem to do the trick, just replace the quick release ones. Strap is still a little thin, but feels secure enough

Nice look and feel. Let's the watch sit comfortably on your wrist. Quick release pins for easy strap changing. The holes are not strong though. One has already broken through. Hence the 3 stars

Using this with the Rose Gold Samsung Galaxy Watch. Fits perfectly and is very smooth to touch and very light.One thing to consider is that the strap lock is quite effective, so if like me you take the watch off and on daily and on a regular basis, it will slow you down a bit and you'll have to learn how to release it effectively.Otherwise it fits great for my small wrist and it looks good with the watch.

This is an amazing quality of strap at a good price point. The silicon is soft but sturdy enough to give reassurance whilst wearing a heavy watch. The free loop has a sort of built in unde-clip that locks into place when worn so that there is no risk of the strap coming undone or flapping about.I've changed my buckle to correspond with my watch - but the original stainless steel is also good quality. Also, the quick release is a godsend. All straps should have this feature from here on out! Finally, the package comes with two sizes of strap - which I thought was a nice touch.Would highly recommend and will likely buy additional straps myself!
