For under $100, I am pleasantly surprised at how solid and well built an integrated leather strap with deployant clasp is. Having purchased many 3rd party straps over the years, it’s not uncommon to see traditional leather straps with simple pin buckles sell for significantly more. The leather was a bit stiff when new, but broke in very quickly and conformed nicely to my wrist. I’m very happy with this purchase.
I’m not too crazy about the color of the strap, I wish they had more of a leather brown option. Also this is the first time I had a watches metal bracelet have a better and more comfortable fit than the leather strap. It is also very difficult to change out the straps on the watch. Overall the strap is okay, just wish it was a little nicer, more comfortable and easier to change out for the price tag.
