deBeer Oyster Style Solid Link Design Watch Band-Choice of Color (gold tone, silver tone, Two-Tone, black tone) & width(18mm, 20mm)

I just received this highly quality metal watch band today, but the pins were not included. I thought every watch band should have in it. The pins do not cost quite expensive. This metal band looks very elegant, and it feels genuine, smooth, and looks expensive. I hope it will last longer. I have received a few different curved and straight end pieces from 18mm to 20mm, but I will store them in case someone asks me. DeBeer has shipped it out quickly in just two days, and they packed it well. It is worth to buy a highly quality band. I highly recommend this product to everyone.

This is a pretty good band for the price.The links have nice brushing and are held together with spring pins. The end links are hollow (cant expect more for the price, but I can wish). It tappers nicely from 20mm to 18mm. The clasp is a fairly cheap stamped metal construction, but I actually kind of love it because its very thin, 5.5mm when closed. The clasp click on mine was a little uninspiring at first, but with a little bend of the clasp it clicks shut very well with confidence. The fold over V makes it even more secure- I'm not worried about it opening ever. When it arrived, the edges were a bit sharp on both the links and clasps, but I took a high grit sand paper (2000 grit) and smoothed up all of the edges and it's very comfortable now. With a little effort, it's a great band that I cant really complain about.So, it's a great band for the price and fits the SARB017 well enough- but having said that, it feels a little cheap for the watch- it's the weak link (no pun intended). This would be a great band for a $100-$300 watch. So I'm keeping it, but might throw it on my timex or a seiko 5. I think the Alpinist deserves a little more. I've also order the SARB017 3D oyster from strapcode/Miltat so anxious to see how it compares.

Very nice product. Of note: ships with the wrist band AND three different sets/sizes of end pieces PLUS the two spring bars to attach to the watch. Alas, no instructions, but you can find them easily enough online. I used a bent paper clip (bent at the very end about 1/8 inch) and VERY SMALL hammer to knock out the linking pins and was able to size the band myself. Band is heavier than most, but I was looking for something substantial for a sports watch, so it fits the bill for me.

Always a risk when buying this type of product from Amazon. In this case, the listed details of the item did not match the item that arrived. This says 20mm buckle and 18mm links... it is the opposite. 18mm at the buckle and 20mm at the links, so it did not fit the watch that I purchased it for. The links seem to require screws to remove as well, which was not stated in the details. The hunt continues for a decent two tone link strap for my two tone Timex.

Nice watch band but unfortunately neither the straight nor the curved link were included. So its basically unusable as it cannot be attached to my watch. I've emailed deBeers and will update the review if I hear from them.

It looks nice and fits my watch. Pretty easy to install. I used the pins from my old watch band.

The bracelet is very light and there isn't a reassuring click when you buckle it initially, but the double lock helps. The bracelet tapers a bit toward the buckle so it looks nice and the brushed finish goes well with my watch. I bought this for the Seiko Alpinist - the end links don't match up perfectly, but doesn't look too bad. I have end links from another Seiko I will try.Overall it's a nice package and it came with three different end links and two spring pins. The end links are rounded and two different types of straight edges, but not sure how you'd use those with anything other than a rectangle watch. The resizing was as easy as it gets, which had been a problem with some of the other bracelets I've had recently. Overall, good value and my second purchase from DeBeers. Shipping was very fast, 3 days.

Band was actually too heavy. Came lose on one end of watch and pin fell out. Returning the band
