Review on Montana Black Genuine Leather Timepiece by Brad Mastermind

Revainrating 5 out of 5

High quality leather for big wrists!

Quality and style look great. The pattern is grainy rather than smooth like in her photos, but very subtle. Suitable for everyday wear and can probably also be suitable for a dress. ATTENTION, the spring rod is not included. you will need one! A wide V-shaped end works best. FIT: I was on the last hole and it was too tight in my old strap and now I'm a 3rd size so this is perfect. More room for huge wrists. It will be stiff at first, but that's good and it will flex. It is in order. The suede lining feels great. Clasp & Spring Bars: Comes with gold and silver (metal) clasps. I had to cut the spring bar in half on the replacement clasp with scissors to replace them. I have 2 tools and have done this multiple times. Their spring bars work, but they don't have a second tooling lip and are very stiff. After removing the spring bars, they had to be slid up and down the table to really bounce. I recommend replacing if you have a spare, or use the ones from the old belt. Finally. The middle part of the clasp is a bit short and doesn't fit. It will hold the watch but I used an old center piece from my old clasp. In my picture I replaced the middle section and put in my old one and tried to show you that the one that comes with is almost too short. Also, the inside width of the clasp is 20mm on a 22mm strap. The 22mm fits the watch itself snugly and that's not a problem, but my old clasp was also 22mm so it didn't fit the end of this watch with a slightly thinner clasp. Looks nice. It's ok but if you order replacements you will need a 20mm clasp and spring bar and 22mm spring bars to attach the strap to your watch. Overall 10/10 for the money. Look for an inexpensive spring bar tool. The only non-removable downside is the small second loop that holds the excess strap that slides around - it feels kind of cheap. would have preferred to clip it next to the clasp. I can just slide it into place once the strap is on and it's fine, but I'm considering cutting it off. This is a very small problem. In general very satisfied.
