I don't like wearing leather straps when it's hot or when I'm doing sports. They get pretty smelly and stick to the skin. Silicone straps don't match "cooler" watches. Military-style straps can work well, but in my opinion color options for watches like the Alpinist are a bit limited, and NATO straps add thickness to the watch. Wouldn't it be great if the silicone was next to the skin and the skin (for looks) on top? The answer is YES and this band does it all. The seams appear even, the fittings are visually appealing and unobtrusive, the holes are evenly distributed and in large numbers, the look of brown leather with a black border is very pleasant. I had no problems with the locking rings, but then I did SnowSeal leather (but not the rings, so you can see the color difference in the photo). The $13 price is right, and I've already listed two more of these straps for my other watches. I'm giving 4 stars (instead of 5) for comfort and thickness because I think the thinner rubber part makes the strap more flexible and comfortable. Overall, however, a great product and a great long-awaited idea!
