Review on 🐍 Genuine Python Leather Watch Strap with Natural Appeal by Justin Hill

Revainrating 1 out of 5

A little disappointing.

Good group. It's well done. Crafted from an exotic animal, it is definitely unusual. But I'm still a little disappointed. This RLC python strap is well stitched, comes with two buckles (one gold tone, one silver tone), and looks well made. This is a good strap and feels a little lighter than a similar cowhide strap. The 17mm strap I bought fits my old Bulova Sea King assault rifle perfectly. I had to use a tool as this band didn't come with quick release pins. In fact, the Revain page doesn't say they come with quick release pins, so that's fine. This is a good group, but there are two problems. First thing I noticed was that the scales (it's snakeskin, remember?) tend to pull up a bit when putting on and taking off as the strap goes through the buckle. not much but I'm wondering if they fall off after heavy wear? Second, the colors are more patchy than the image on the Revain site. While not misleading, it can lead to some frustration. So take a look at my attached photos if you are considering this group. In short, a good US made band with lots of good features and value for money but it doesn't quite live up to expectations and leaves me little concern for future wear and tear.
