“Strap is great. A little bit thicker than most tropic straps but plenty flexible, and does not have the extreme taper of other tropic straps. I prefer this "non-traditional" look as the tapered straps always look too small on my wrist regardless of band / lug width.
The only thing keeping this from a 5 star review are the keepers. The rubber is so tacky that it's nearly impossilbe to slide the band into the keepers or the keepers over the band.”
“A fantastic strap, excellent quality. A real winner with my Squale Ferrovia! Might be the toughest I have to get the end through the strap keepers, though. But I guess there’s also comfort in knowing it’s not coming undone!”
“Usual great quality of the Barton bands but this style is much more durable and stiffer in nature than the Elite silicone band. A great choice for a more substantial watch weight or design as in a typical dive watch for instance.”
“I have to say this is likely the highest quality Barton strap I’ve purchased to date. Fits my ‘68 Seiko DX M330 SeaLion really well and has the right vintage vibe.”
