Good quality watch strap but rather fiddly to install
I ordered this strap to change up the look of my white dial Hamilton watch. Th strap is of very high quality rubber and once fitted to my watch looks great and feels really comfortable. Unfortunately the strap was rather hard to fit. Firstly the strap doesn't come with quick release spring bars, just normal spring bars which makes it very fiddly to fit onto the lugs of the watch. Next the strap length has to be adjusted by cutting sections off the strap until the desired length is achieved. Whilst this wasn't problematic fitting the clasp once cut was a pain. Again this used a sprint bar type fitting which was really tricky to secure into the recesses of the clasp having no clearance down the side of the clasp to use a spring bar tool or indeed even see what you are doing. Once in position and installed this is a very nice strap but I think a little bit more thought is required for the clasp and length adjustment before this becomes a great strap.

Excellent way to dress down a watch!
I got this to dress down a Rolex explorer. On the metal bracelet, the watch can look very smart and a little too smart for some occasion, so I wanted something that was a little more relaxed.The strap comes nicely boxed and comes in two parts as you are going to have to reduce the size of one of the sides. This unfortunately is a permanent change but if you size it up a little to have some breathing room in the summer, then you are fine.The rubber used on this strap is a good quality, it is super soft and has a good level of flexibility to it. It does mark but these are fairly well hidden as it's a black strap. The thickness of the strap does make it feel substantial but not to the point it feels too big on the wrist.The clasp is really nicely made and reminds me a lot of the rolex clasp. It has very similar styling and so it matches the watch really well! The clasp is solid metal and when closed snaps shut.Overall, this is a premium quality strap for not crazy money. I am quite happy with it on the Rolex and will likely get some more on other colours. I went very conservative for the first strap...I can give this 5/5 as the quality is great and the finishing looks perfect.

Not very easy to use
This watch strap looks good. It takes a bit to effort to change to. The buckle is very tight and I find it difficult to unbuckle it.

It deserves more stars.
I always like receiving items where the manufacturer has taken pride in the way their product is presented. Juntan FKM have used a plain nondescript card box and simply, but stylishly, embossed Watch Band in shiny blue on the lid. Most manufacturers would use sticky tape to secure the lid, but this one is held in place with 2 translucent bands. Classy.The strap doesn’t disappoint either. There was me thinking that it was made of common old rubber. It’s not. It’s made from fluoroelaststomers, I’d no idea what one of them is, so I looked it up:“Fluoroelastomers (FKM/FPM) are fluorinated synthetic polymers designed for harsh environments including aggressive chemical and temperature applications.”From that I assume it would survive the Antarctic, Mount Etna on one of its bad days and the bath after my 6 year old granddaughter has been making her potions. The clasp is stainless steel, solid and beautifully made. And it closes with a satisfying click. A good quality click. Not tinny and cheap. The strap is designed with a band that runs centrally down the strap and is then mirrored along the clasp as well.Included in the box is everything you need to install the strap. A range of spring bars and a couple of screwdrivers, one of which will double as a glasses screwdriver!A first for me with a watch strap is the spacers that Juntan FKM have incorporated into either end of the strap. Not only do they allow for air circulation, they also offer the watch case lift that prevents pressure on the wrist and discomfort.Until you feel it, wear it, it’s just another rubber strap.It’s understated and cannot be appreciated by just looking at the listing. This is a beautifully designed, beautifully made watch strap worth every penny of the £29.99 asking price.

Clasp lets it down
I have a few FKM rubber straps as I love the feel of them. It's a very comfortable material to wear and this watch strap is no exception. It's very flexible and conforms to the wrist well. Bear in mind that if you're buying the strap you'll have to cut the rubber to size.The first thing I noticed however, when opening the packaging, was the clasp. It's quite clear where they drew inspiration from. However I unfortunately found it quite difficult and fiddly to operate. For me the clasp really let down the strap. At £27.99 I'd have expected better.

High quality, premium materialsm fully adjustable with clasp
This is a rubber clasp watch strap that is made from FKM (fluorocarbon rubber). It comes with 4 spring loaded bars, though unfortunately not the quick release type.The clasp works extremely well and keeps the watch secure on the wrist. I like the fact that the strap is thicker as it approaches the watch, so that rather than lifting of the wrist it still sits flush on the wrist. It is comfortable to wear and FKM is a superior material with many benefits. The strap is weather resistant, extremely durable, is very robust and designed for outdoor use. FKM is considered hypoallergenic, which is a benefit as I do have sensitive skin.The watch is fully adjustable for smaller wrists and comes with a tool kit to allow you to adjust over about 1.5 inches in length in total. It is quite expensive for a wrist strap but then FKM itself is an expensive material so the strap seems fair value given the material and quality of the strap.
