This is a perfect watch strap. It is robust, elegant, soft and flexible, and smells like very high quality leather. Looks and feels great on my '68 Chrono master.
I am a woman, but I bought the man’s version of my Garmin watch in order to get a larger screen. Even on the tightest notch, all the 22mm straps I bought elsewhere were annoyingly long and did not fit snugly. Today, I received this strap in the short length, and I am so happy to say it fits tightly around my wrist without excess length awkwardly getting in the way. Also, it is beautiful and I cannot believe how quickly it arrived. Highly recommend.
This is my third time buying this watch strap, which says everything about how much I like it. It's incredibly comfortable to wear, and the breathable material makes it perfect for summer.
The customer service has been outstanding every time, and the delivery is unbelievably fast. I placed my order on Saturday, and it was delivered to me in California on Monday!!!
Highly recommended if you're looking for a comfortable, high-quality watch strap backed by excellent customer service and lightning-fast shipping.
This is my fourth Erika’s Originals strap, and there’s a good reason I keep coming back. The Mirage MN Yellow Stripe is incredibly comfortable, easy to adjust, and built to a very high standard. It completely changes the personality of my Rolex 116613LN—the yellow stripe picks up the gold accents perfectly and gives it a sporty, understated look. Once again, Erika has delivered a strap that’s every bit as enjoyable to wear as it is to look at. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to give their watch a fresh new character.
The Staib mesh strap has a heavy, silky quality. Excellent quality and price. Paired with my Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer, it is a look of jewelry. There is a learning curve to put band on and lock it, important to see how it works. Definitely thinking of getting one for another watch.
Great strap and service. Product as always exceeds expectations, will continue to shop with Holbens. Thanks!!
I replace the band on my 2000 Submariner every few years along with the pins. Nearly lost my sub about 10 years ago due to a failed link in the factory band so decided to switch to a functional band. Love the way the watch looks now which I wear sailing, swimming and working as a tradesman. It is more understated and most people probably don't realise what I am wearing on my wrist, which I prefer.
My 2nd ColaReb strap, 1st one in EcoSuede, and I'm even more impressed than last time. Softer, thicker, and more comfortable than I imagined, but what made me glad I finally pulled the trigger on this one is the color. It's not a color that calls attn. to itself, in fact it's the opposite. So it's great for balancing a busy dial, an earthy tone that is literally the opposite of looking at screens on a stressful day. And I feel good about the ethos that went into making it, too. Recommended.
This is an excellent product and was delivered per the stated schedule. The product is very well-constructed, of high quality and is very satisfactory overall.
Incredible quality for the price. Vanilla smell was a bit strong for me initially but after washing with some baking soda, smell is a lot more manageable.
Holbens customer service is absolutely stellar as well— quick shipping, quick responses etc. would buy again from here.
My fourth strap from Bennett, the best cost/quality ratio I’ve had so far. Loved my Isofrane but to expensive for a work watch and believe me I’m not an office guy. Machinist here as well as some fabrication well so I’m hard on gear. New work watch, give it a year for dings and dents.
Really pleased with the look of this strap. It feels great, and has a cool casual vibe. I put it on a pretty fancy looking piece I wanted to bring down to earth... did the trick. Happy to see it in a short length.... will probably buy another one with a different lug width for my other watches.
Erika’s Originals straps never disappoint! They are without question the best strap for any watch. Supremely comfortable and durable. I chose the black ops with a white stripe to pair with my Tudor Monochrome. It looks fantastic and complements the dial so well. It makes for the best summer time watch while out on the lake, doing yard work, or having a BBQ. Fantastic!
Wanted a more casual strap for my Tangente 35. Bought this strap along with the anthracite. The beige in some lights can take on a shade of grey. Looks great, and shipping was fast!
I am wearing this with my Todd Snyder x Timex 1976 Lexington Watch - looks great and I much prefer it to the stock tan strap!
A very high quality strap that goes great with my gold-capped 1957 Omega Seamaster. Makes for a fine dress watch combination. It's stiff, but a week or so wrapped around a watch pillow has let it take on the curl it needs to be comfortable.
18mm short. Matte finish is still shiny enough to pair with a polished case (IMO). Definitely feels sturdy and high quality. Thankfully no major issues with hair pulling on the wrist.
I purchased the black sailcloth Arne for my new watch - Tissot Seastar 1000 Black PVD. It's a perfect match for this watch. I've bought a total of four Hirsch straps this year from Holben's, when you find the best it's the easy choice.
This is my second Di-Modell Pilot strap. When I decided to replace the OEM vintage riveted brown leather strap on my Stowa Flieger Klassik this is the first strap I thought of. And, again, it didn't disappoint. It integrates so well with the watch's style and I much prefer the black over the original distressed brown. Also, I find the subdued white contrast stitching more appealing than the heavy stitching on the many bulkier pilot-style straps I researched. Another bonus reason I chose the Di-Modell Pilot is that I was able to use the Stowa buckle; most other similar straps tapered too much to allow the swap. The only caveat: I have a 7.75" wrist and if the strap length was any shorter it wouldn't fit me. But it's comfortable as-is and I love the look.
Superb clasp. Exactly as advertised. Holben did an excellent job ensuring this high quality clasp was delivered on time. Can’t speak highly enough of Holben’s professionalism.
The watch band is exactly as advertised. Holben has been superb. Delivered on time and everything exactly as advertised. Highly recommend!
I purchased several Hirsch Butterfly Deployant Clasps from Holben’s. Because of all the info on the Holben’s website, ordering the right size clasp was super easy. Delivery was fast and predictable. The clasp itself is a very handsome accessory with top notch workmanship that is clearly evident. One thing that I really appreciate is that there is micro adjustment built into the clasp. Not a big deal with leather straps compared to bracelets but nice none the less. Don’t drop your watch while strapping it on. Get a premium clasp. I highly recommend this product.
Awesome strap, worked out perfectly! Holben’s is my go to for straps, From Fluco to ColaReb, best strap and the best prices on the internet.
