This was the best deal on a watch strap and the metal slider allowed me to fit it easily. I can no longer buy this type of watch strap from local stores so I was very happy to find it at Revain. I had trouble buying watch straps because they are usually too long. My husband had to cut a few inches off the last one and I sewed the end on the sewing machine to keep it from unraveling. This Stops Co Classic bracelet fits perfectly, fits perfectly and is flexible so it wraps around my wrist without protruding. I have NEVER bought tape this soft and flexible, but it is very strong and well made. Feel free to buy this bracelet if you have a normal wrist. Too bad I didn't take 2.
