Review on 14Mm 18Mm 20Mm 22Mm 24Mm WOCCI Silicone Watch Bands Quick Release Soft Rubber Replacement Straps With Gold Buckle by Peter Bates

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A surprisingly good value

TLDR;Comfortable, well-priced option with its only major shortcoming being the cheap metals. Gets the job done in spite of this.The silicone band is pretty conventional around the top. The back has a unique cross hatch texture that is very subtle, but makes wearing with sweat more comfortable. I would have liked this also on the top. The buckle is either of a cheap metal or plastic. While it withstands wear within reason, it chips easily. However, the rose gold paint is a perfect match to any real rose gold metal watches/jewelry you may have, even for the cheap material. Another weak point of the watch strap are the quick release pins. While convenient, they are of relatively poor construction. They can be fitted loosely to the silicone and don't necessarily contract/expand to the perfect length. They get the job done while being painless and convenient, but need to be sturdier as the most likely point on the watch to break. The band wears reasonably, although I got a darker color that fades with use. The band is designed to be very boxy, from the loops to the lack of taper on the band. I would have preferred a more lean design, especially since I use this for my activity watch. There's plenty of adjustment holes to fit a variety of wrist sizes. One of if not the cheapest alternative to what came preinstalled on your watch. An overall solid alternative to what came preinstalled on your watch at an affordable price.
