Review on ๐Ÿ•ถ๏ธ Barton Jetson Style Watch Strap: Retro meets Modern for Timeless Elegance by Tim Jolivette

Revainrating 5 out of 5

High quality bracelet, but beware of thick wrists and large watches!

This is a quality strap but the sizing is not exactly what I thought it would be. my Seiko SNKM97. I had to position the watch high up near the buckle, which in turn resulted in an uncomfortable and uneven fit on my wrist. I just didn't have enough play to set the center of the clock. So if your watch has a large case, this might not be the best choice for a strap. Second, it barely fits my wrist! I have had straps from other brands that are the same size and fit better. I know sizing can vary a bit from brand to brand, but I was disappointed that it could only be tightened to the first notch or two. Without a little slack at the end, the tape barely went through the loop, again giving the impression of some sort of odd bubble; scrap piece of nylon. My quibbles aside, this is still a quality band and I would recommend it for both non-thick case watches and people with a normal sized wrist. Beware of thick wrists.

Pros
  • I have my fingers crossed
Cons
  • Makes me nervous
