Feels premium
Great watch strap. Yes it’s a little stiff but not uncomfortable. It will likely last long as the material seems durable. Wish the light blue matched my watch perfectly but still looks good. Easy to attach and remove.

Looks great but didn't last a year (See Update)
UPDATE: I'm changing my review from 2 to 4 stars thanks to the great customer service from Josh at Barton. I deducted a star because the original band should have lasted longer, & a few of the replacement options I wanted were out of stock but available here on Amazon.I contacted Barton, & it's great to see that they will honor their guarantee even for bands purchased on Amazon. While they didn't have the same Bond strap in stock, they allowed me to choose a canvas strap that looks nice & will break in faster than the nylon did. I'm pleased with the quality of this band & Barton's customer service.ORIGINAL REVIEW: After breaking in the nylon, the band worked wonderfully for my Fossil Gen 6. It was stylish, & sturdy. Unless I was at a formal/special occasion requiring a different watch altogether, this band was perfect & I never even changed it out like I did with my previous watch.But I got up in the middle of the night tonight & the watch fell off my wrist onto the floor. Upon further inspection, there is plastic casing between the nylon that holds the spring bar. This broke on one end of the band, & so did the bar inside that connects to the watch. The part with the spring latch was still in the band, but rest of the bar was missing, along with a section of the casing. If it was just the bar that broke, I would've been okay; I have extra bars. But since the casing broke too, I have to replace the entire band or wear a different watch.This is really disappointing, because the band didn't last a year; I bought it July 2022 & it's early June 2023. And I wasn't doing anything strenuous: I'm in the gym weekly, but it broke while I was sleeping. I've had cheaper, thinner true NATO bands that heavily rely on threading through the bar, yet they lasted longer than a year. I spent more money on a quality Barton band & expected it to last, but unfortunately it didn't.

durable and wont get loose.
Bought this watch band after the original silicone watch band that came with my watch started giving my wrist a rash. Watch band was missing one of the loops but the company replaced it for me. The straps are pretty stiff when I first got them but I tossed them in the wash and they softened up a bit. Over time the band becomes softer and more comfortable without loosing its shape or ability to stay fastened. Sadly, I threw the two halves in a dedicates bag which I forgot to zip all the way at the laundromat. One half slipped out and was lost. Unfortunately it does not look like Barton carries the army green with orange watch bands anymore so it looks like Ill have to choose another color because I am definitely buying a replacement band from them again.

Nylon Watch Band
My Hamilton Field Watch came with a very nice leather band. It lasted about a year since I seldom take off this watch.It did wear out and because I spend time around water I thought a leather replacement might be the wrong move.I bought the nylon strap in a grosgrain ribbon style, Olive with thin Tan and Red stripes. Looks great. Washable. A little stiff at first but broke in well.These Barton straps have the watch pins built into the strap ends. They place a tiny knob that allows you to EASILY compress the pin and insert it into the watch. This, next to sliced bread, is one of mankind’s great achievements.Also, the Barton pin springs are very strong. Not once have the come loose from the watch.Just great.

Replacement band for Citizen Garrison field watch
The band that came with the Citizen Garrison is a green nylon/leather band with metal reinforced holes. It was either too tight or too loose on my 6.5” wrist. I’ve heard good things about Barton and jumped on this gray 2 piece NATO band when I saw it on sale for $8. It feels and fits better than the band that came with the watch.I’ve ordered NATO bands for my G-Shock and most of them are a single layer of nylon. This Barton is two layers sewn together to give it a stiffer (and higher quality) feel. I’ll certainly be ordering more Barton bands to switch up the look of my watches.

Great color, but why is the nylon so board-stiff?
I just received my Helm Komodo, and the bracelet isn't comfortable. While the watch comes with a single-pass nylon strap, I prefer double-pass when I can get it. In this case, I couldn't get it in the color I wanted, so I went with Barton as they're a well-known brand and they at least had the color I wanted (merlot in Barton-speak).Installation was quite simple, though hampered by the same nylon texture issue I've encountered strapping the watch on...the nylon is remarkably stiff. The spring bar levers make installation a breeze, absent fighting the nylon a bit, both in-between the lugs as well as moving the spring bar sufficiently to install.I have 7.5"/191mm wrists and have 4 additional holes on the strap.The color is exactly what I wanted.I'm hoping part of the stiff band is better durability, at least I hope so, because it isn't doing anything for comfort. I can see this wearing into a comfortable strap over a period of months. I'm between holes, so a softer nap would be appreciated, a bit of stretch and give divine.When you narrow your color down, you have limited options. The Barton fits the color bill and appears sufficiently well-made to last as long as I intend the watch to last, I just know it will be painful love at first.

Quality Barton straps
Quick-release springbars and good material. This strap is for small and medium wrists; my wrist is 7 3/8 inches or 19 cm and there is one hole to spare. I chose this strap because my vintage style military dive watch is thick and not suited to a strap that passes under the case. I’ll be buying more Barton straps from Amazon.
