🕒 Slate Suede Watchband by Benchmark Straps Review

So firstly the screwdriver is not included I think I was misled by the pictures but I thought it was because my other bands were supplied with the tools. But you don't have to install it just to remove your old one unless it has a little sliding bar like they have Fossil bracelets. My Garmin Vivoactive Music also has a remove slider so I was fine. The Garmin version of this strap was $60 and had a matching bezel. As picky as I am about the bands, I couldn't justify it even though they're on…

This is a beautiful strap and it looks amazing on my watch, it fits perfectly and I love the way the leather is made. seems fragile, I work in an office so it doesn't get a lot of use but it does show signs of wear, although I turn the watch over and wear this watch with this strap maybe once or twice a week.

Good: super fast Amazon shipping, arrived next day after ordering. The suede side feels quite hairy and real, so the thickness is nice and chunky. The Bad: One of the spring bars is missing on arrival. not a deal breaker, but not perfect either. At the end of the strap without a buckle, the landing broke off, not quite 20mm, more like 21mm, I had to squeeze them. Don't want to bother with returns, not worth the travel or time but overall a bit disappointed.

Let the pictures speak for themselves. The only thing I would prefer is the quick release option. The watch goes well with blue or white dial watches. I have a rose gold watch with a white face and the amount of compliments I get is amazing. I can't say much about the quality, but I think it's worth it for the price. Update - the strap is holding up well a few months later, but the loose loop is too big and doesn't secure the strap when worn. I wish this loop was a little smaller to keep the…

I bought gray 20mm. Great strap for the price. It's a very nice soft suede finish and it has the expected "fluff" where you can brush it up and it gets lighter and darker at the bottom. The entire band is also very flexible, no need to break in. Mine fits perfectly on the lugs of my 20mm watch. The only negative I can say is that the stitching on the front is a bit uneven and there is a small end of the nylon thread sticking out of the second stitch hole from the right in both the top and…

Beautiful strap, soft and velvety, suitable for everyday wear. I bought a gray strap for my watch and it changed the look of the watch. I needed to fit this 20mm strap into the 19mm lug width of my watch. The straps came with 20mm spring bars but I had to use the 19mm bars that came with my watch. The overall length is also just right for my wrist.

This is truly disappointing. From the description it appears that the strap consists of a suede strip at the top and a leather strip at the bottom. It sounds like leather and suede. They don't mention the thick layer of silicone between them. I should have known better for the price so my fault. It's still not what I wanted. Looks good when you're not looking at it. Although I'm not sure about the quality. Rschunimagu
