“Spent a few hours trying to install the band with the included spring bars, couldn’t seat them in the lugs. Emailed Island Watch and they sent me narrow bars, but by that time took to my repair guy who had narrow spring bars and installed band easily. Seiko SKX-007.”
“Zero quality issues and the solid end links fit the skx007 perfectly. I think the finish complements the watch and I love the milled clasp. I removed one link for sizing and the slotted pins made that a quick job. The quality of the bracelet matches that of the watch. The finish on the links is a consistent brush texture that feels smooth and there are no sharp edges to be found. The bracelet has a nice heft to it and does not feel or look cheap in any way.
I’m very happy with this purchase and I’ve found it to be a good value for the money. Shipped in two days as promised. Long Island Watch is the real deal.”
“I put this on my SKX009 and so far, I love it. It's a little more rattly than I anticipated, but still a solid bracelet. The brushed metal doesn't 100% match the watch, but it's close enough that most people won't notice.”
“Bought this for my brand new SKX007, based on the positive reviews. It arrived today and I couldn’t wait to put it on.
Well, I just installed it and am very disappointed in the fit & quality of the strap. The links themselves have A LOT of wiggle to them. For the money, I expected a heavy weight, high quality, tight fitting band. Nope. And it gets worse...
The end links/spring bar fit loosely to the watch itself. I can literally wiggle the end links it back and forth where it’s attached to the lugs.... To be honest, the band makes the SXK feel like a $20 fake Rolex. Needless to say, I’ll be putting the original rubber strap back on tomorrow.
Due to their return policy, it’s not worth the hassle of returning it since I already put it on my watch and “took off the stickers”.....
So, I spent $80 to turn my watch into a cheap Chinese knock off.”
