Great strap (after I found the perfect way to wear it)
Absolutely love this strap (but only because I found a way to wear it that suits me perfectly).I didn't like this strap much at all at first as this was my first NATO strap and fastening it using the method shown by the seller (which to be fair is the most common way of wearing the strap) in my opinion made the strap look ugly and my watch uncomfortable in my wrist. But that's because I have skinny wrists and the most common way to wear a NATO strap apparently doesn't suit me.The watch I'm wearing (a Seiko made Alba Aqpk401) is one of my favourite watches I own because of how slim it is, how it lies flat against my wrist and how I can forget I'm even wearing it.But when I first put this new (18mm) strap on my watch I suddenly had two layers of nylon strap under the watch which meant it was no longer flat on my wrist and was also uncomfortable.Then because I have skinny wrists I also had a lot of excess strap left over that when I tucked back through the clasp as you're supposed to I didn't much care for how I wound up with a large and ugly lump of nylon strap that kept catching my shirt sleeve and didn't look nice.So I had a look online and saw lots of ways on how to cut down the strap. Luckily, before I destroyed the strap I found a YouTube video that demonstrated the FOUR ways that a NATO strap can be worn.The last method shown on that video turned out to be the way to make the strap fit to my skinny wrist perfectly and now I love how it looks.The strap is also now extremely comfortable to wear. I've even fallen asleep wearing this watch and strap and the next morning I forgot I even had it on.The original black nylon strap that came with my watch that this strap has replaced now looks like cheap tat next to this.I've attached photos so anyone can see how good this strap looks on a skinny wrist using a different way of wearing it than as shown by the seller.I don't think I can post links to the video here so if you want to see how to wear the strap like I am wearing it then go to YouTube and search for a video titled "4 Ways to wear a NATO strap Tutorial" on the Nordic Watch Channel and use the fourth method demonstrated.So, I highly recommend this strap. It's excellent quality, great value, looks cool, is extremely comfortable and I can see this strap remaining on this watch for many years to come.

Good looking, strong and durable.
Great colour , super matt silver buckle doesn't catch on anything. Fabric of strap really nice, a sort of fine rib. One of the best straps I've ever bought.

Good Strap
Good Strap - Looks Nice and Looks Good Quality.I bought this because it said fits 8 & 1/2 inch to 9 inch wrists but only just on my 8 & 1/2 inch wrists - 20mm longer and it would have gone from good strap to a great strap - hence four stars not five

Value
Good value and perfect fit. Great for anyone like me, who's skin gets irritated with the back of watches.

Perfect to me
I bought this strap as a replacement for a much more expensive Crown & Buckle strap. This one looked a little thin at first sight but in the end that’s a plus as it makes it easier to fold it back in the buckles. I love rib design and the colour. I prefer the mat shine over the glossy seat belt fabric. Of course this is stiffer than seat belt fabric but once it’s on your wrist that’s irrelevant. I’m ordering more from Annefit.

Supplied spring bars too loose
The bars are a little too loose for my Seiko watch or maybe the holes are too big for the bars. Either way the diameter of the bar was smaller than the hole. I used the original bars. If the original bars where bent in any way. I would have to buy new bars. I found the removal tool less than convenient to use and put it in the bin.The strap seems to be well made. I know its nylon but it's very rough to touch. Maybe I just need to wear it and it'll soften up.The blurb says the strap is extra long. That might be an exaggeration. IMHO I would not call it extra long for a strap.The buckle seems of good quality and complements the strap.All in all I like the strap.

Very Decent for the Price
Easy to fit, does what it says in the tin. Looks good and fits well. I will likely purchase another colour.The bonus of a tool to fit the strap is welcome.
