Review on πŸ“¦ BARTON Replacement Buckle for Watch Bands by Kelly Pierce

Revainrating 3 out of 5

This is a downgrade compared to the replacement buckle

I bought a Barton strap for Garmin Instinct. The included spring bars were replaced with Grarnin pins and the strap worked great, it just had a brushed stainless steel buckle which I replaced with this ascetic black PVD Barton buckle. Immediately after removing the item from the box, it was clear that this item had a much lower meaning than the original. It fits and works but doesn't inspire confidence as the spring bar holding it to the strap clicks and shifts, it just appears and feels flimsy. It looks and works well but I doubt the reliability and durability of this item. I would not buy the buckle again nor will I ever buy a Barton strap again as it is a very poor example of their accessory compared to what they supplied on the original strap. Really very sorry.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Reliability
