Review on 🌟 Premium Leather Men's Watches with Ritche Watch Bands Release by Kyle Ahmed

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Affordable Value - Watch

Had to replace the silicone strap on my Timex Expedition while chasing AMZ I was looking for something durable and didn't care too much about looks. Canvas, leather, and nylon were my favorite substitutes, and after some thought I settled on this Ritche strap. Pros: It is very durable. In the last 2 weeks I've had a couple of mishaps catching on my watch strap, one of which almost knocked me off my feet. The strap and stylus held up with no issues, and closer inspection showed no signs of loosening. They are very easy to fit to the watch, the slide pin still required the use of a tool to fit properly but this was a lot easier. than pins without a small raised pin partner. Replacing the straps with old-style pins was a very welcome design improvement. Actually he's attractive, he won't win fashion awards, but he looks simple and nice. It's comfortable to wear, despite my preference for a snug fit, it doesn't dig in or chafe with sweat. Cons: The description says the stiffness goes away and takes the shape of your wrist. I'm not seeing much of it at the moment, it's definitely stiff, but after 2 weeks of continuous wear it still doesn't curl up much around my wrist. Length: 8" is too short in my opinion, my wrists are not too big at 7 1/4" and that is the main reason for my 3 star rating, otherwise it would have deserved a 4. The strap is long enough that I could use the 2nd hole off the leash to secure it with a firm hold, the 3rd hole is too tight and the 1st hole is too loose. It barely allows me to fit the bracelet into the wrist strap and makes taking the watch off or on a chore as I have almost no length to play with. If you have a 6.5" wrist or less consider this a 4 star rating. If it weren't so durable I would return the band and look for another, especially if it was more expensive than it is, so overall this is a 'fair' replacement for my old band, but I probably am I will try to replace it in the near future.
