WOCCI 20mm Watch Band, Italian Leather, Embossed Alligator Grain, Gold Buckle (Brown/Beige Stitching)

Looks great. Feels great. And hopefully lasts great/a long time.Fits really well(perfect actually), and comes with an extra pair of springs to attach the band. It also comes with a tool.

I looked at quite a few watch bands online to replace my husband's well-worn black alligator-look leather band for his Bulova Precisionist. There were quite a lot of WOCCI bands purchased, and the reviews were quite good. Some other brands had many reviews but seemed to have more complaints, while still others had very few in number but glowing reviews, which I always find a bit suspicious. The price was far less than a branded Bulova leather band, & the quality was surprisingly good (though not quite equal to the original, which was to be expected). The band was a perfect fit with no problems replacing the old one, & is a really good-looking band to be not an original brand. There was another well-reviewed brand that we later learned a friend purchased and liked, but our experience has been quite good & the band has lasted well. We would buy the WOCCI brand again because "If it works, don't fix it!"

I was quite surprised (and impressed) with the quality of this band for the price. I'm buy most of my straps from that well-known Austrian strap manufacturer that starts with an "H". I took a chance in buying one of these brown with the light colored stitching straps but it didn't have enough red in the brown I was looking for to go with my Aqua Terra Skyfall.. But, I realized it was the right brown I was looking for (and fit) a Longines Flagship Heritage strap I'd been wanting to change out since the factory-supplied strap was too chocolate brown for my tastes. When I started to install the strap I noticed how thick the leather was overall and how nice the stitching was on the backside, nothing was cheap looking even compared to the pricer "H" branded straps. I was especially pleased on the buckle end of the strap, it had stitching near the buckle to make sure the buckle stays secure if the glue in that area failed, something missing from other pricier strap brand too often. This strap is a bit stiff but that's actually a good thing; after some flexing of such straps and putting it on some kind of mold for a few days (like the formed pillow for storing watches in a watch box) such straps I find will keep their shape and conform quite nicely to your wrist. This one did it in spades. I found in no time flat the strap was ideal on my wrist, it had the perfect fit and looked exactly like I wanted a brown to look with the Longines.There are a couple of items that keep me from giving this a 5 star review: the sides of the strap use a rubber-like painted on material, common among cheaper straps instead of the pricier (but superior) rembrode edge technique. But, the rubber painting does keep liquids out of the sides of the strap and helps longevity. Another gripe is some of the rubber was flaking off in small thin strips in spots but I didn't see actual peeling of the rubber paint material, it's likely some excess was just coming off. The last one is a matter of taste, I wish this supplier would expand the color pallet offered, namely offering a larger variety of brown shades (like more of a lighter honey or golden brown color, ie, something with a red-shaded brown) and maybe offering some additional sizes (like 23mm and 24mm). I do have to say I was quite pleased that they offer it in 19mm, I have fits finding such nicely made straps in 19mm and when I do they often cost 2-4x more.Otherwise, this particular line is highly recommended if you have a dressier watch, it does a really good job at a steal of a price.

Beautiful watch band and it comes with the tools needed to easily change it. The second holder part where the band slides into broke off after about a year, but I had this band for 4 years before replacing it. It’s very well made.

When it comes to installing a new strap on a watch I am "all thumbs." However, I was able to install this band in about 5 minutes - the included pin remover worked well and the pins snapped right into place. The strap itself is much more flexible and comfortable than the original "clasp" band that came with my Mido Commander II watch. The color is almost identical to the original band and perfectly matches the color scheme of the Mido watch (see photos). No more struggling with that crazy clasp that even Houdini would have trouble getting on!

Perfect fit and well made! Quality to match the original.

I have an honest to God 47-year-old Armitron that isn't worth anything except sentimental value and the original metal watchband finally gave up the ghost.I ordered this watchband as a replacement, and I am extremely happy. Along with the band they include an installation tool that made removal of the old band and installation of the new incredibly easy. It might have taken me 4 or 5 minutes.The band makes that old dang watch look downright distinguished. The band is a little stiff at the moment but once it gets a little more supple from use, it will be perfect. It's well worth the price.

My first impression of this product was that of very impressed with the quality of the leather. My second impression was not equal to my first. The watch band pins were short enough to slip out of the watch piece. After wearing the band, which is impressive, the pin failed to retain it to the watch piece, which would have resulted in the watch band failing to perform its primary duty of keeping the watch on your wrist. If I had not noted this fault, my $15,000 Rolex would have fell and been damaged by the failure of this small pin. Again, I emphasize that the band is impressive. But the pins that came with the band are questionable and must be improved if you desire to continue to sell these products.
