Review on BARTON Leather Style Watch Straps Men's Watches by Casey Mann

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Awesome skin option for NATO lovers!

I'm in love with my black NATO leather sneakers! The biggest benefit for me was that the holders were leather instead of stainless steel. I've had two of these that I'm wearing for a week and they feel great. I would recommend shoe polish for these straps. I have both black and matte. They already looked good but the black shoe polish really brought them to life for me! The black color has become deep and rich, now they have a semi-matte sheen that gives them a much more sophisticated look. Just "wax, wax". While some say the straps are thin, I like that about them. Since these are NATO-style straps, they must be thin enough to thread between the spring bars and the case. On my Casio Aviator watch the gap is narrow so if it's thicker it won't fit. Another thing to note about nato leather and nylon is that they fit the watch back that you put them on. In my case, the two Barton NATO leather straps I fitted to my Casio are now permanently attached, unless other watches I plan to try them on have the same lug and case specs. Adjusting these straps is very easy. On my 20mm strap I found it was about 1/2 inch longer than I would have liked and it wasn't long enough to put it back in the holder so I cut it off. I used the nickel as a stencil, cut it precisely and cleaned it with scissors. There is no point in photographing the final product as it really does look like a cut from the manufacturer. I will definitely be buying more for other watches in my collection.
