It spins! He bends! Impossible to tell the time!

This is one of the most impressive engineering marvels I have ever seen. It uses a series of flat springs to allow the band to stretch, twist, and flex in any direction. Unfortunately there is a big problem. It is too long! Because the dial is the heaviest part of your watch, it always faces down. When you try to check the time, the clock face is pointing at the floor, not your eyes! The landing is so incredibly free that you have to turn the watch 180ยฐ with the second hand if you want to check the time. every time That's absurd! If there was a way to adjust the length of the strap, this would probably be the best watch strap ever. Unfortunately, with the obligatory control of two hands, this will be less convenient than a pocket watch. To be clear, this watch strap allows your watch to rotate in the least comfortable place on your wrist, it doesn't drop your wattage at an inconvenient time. When washing my hands, however, I have to be careful when drying them, because it seems to me that the clock is ticking. I could deal with that if I could tighten the elastic bands around my wrist and keep it from swaying like crazy. I would buy something like this just as a bracelet and it would work like a bracelet because there wouldn't be a part that was heavier than the rest. Unfortunately it doesn't work as a watch band. Despite its incredible design and almost supernatural properties, it doesn't do what it's supposed to do, which means it should get a star. Oh, one more thing about this version: it's really thin. Visually, you won't like how thin it is. There are other models with a wider strap.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Big and Chunky
