Review on WOCCI 18mm Stitched Watch Band for Women's Watches by Katie Alvarado

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sturdy, attractive strap, well packaged with pins and tools

I'm used to buying a replacement leather strap every year so I don't spend tons of money every time I need a new one. This is the first time I've ordered a replacement strap online so it seemed a bit riskier than seeing it in store first hand. But after a few days I like it. It's a small thing, but the packaging is different and impressive. I was expecting a normal one (a group in a plastic suitcase) or, even worse, in a plastic bag. But the tape arrived in a nice upside down box, complete with 4 pins and a spare tool. It felt like I had just bought an Apple product. :) I reused my existing pens (rather than the ones that came with the kit) but found the tool that came with it to work a bit better than the small screwdriver I usually use. So I'm very happy with the dark chocolate tone and feel. I've noticed that the strap scratches fairly easily; I broke it while putting on a watch strap. I expect this strap to last as long as the 10+ straps I've bought over the years, no better or worse. Edit: Two years later I replaced it with another identical band. Most straps last me about a year, this one lasted two so I found it to be more durable than other leather straps I've bought.
