Expertly crafted in Italy for more than forty years, vanilla-scented Bonetto Cinturini rubber dive watch straps have long been trusted by renowned watchmakers for their perfect combination of durability and comfort. Made from high-quality vulcanized nitrile butadiene (NBR) rubber, these waterproof, nontoxic and nonallergenic straps are engineered to withstand seawater and UV radiation from sunlight. In addition, thanks to the repellent properties of NBR rubber (unlike silicone), you can say goodbye to lint and dust! With hundreds (and hundreds) of positive reviews, Bonetto Cinturini straps are a great choice for any watch enthusiast.

Model 285 (similar to Model 284, with more pronounced vents) is perforated for improved air circulation. To ensure that the band stays securely in place, a double floating rubber keeper is included. Shown here in Bonetto Cinturini's Nero/Black.

A: We do! Many of our short-length straps are the perfect size for women.

A: Sure! Our handy Apple watch band adapters accommodate most 22mm straps.

Q: Are spring bars available?
A: Yes, for each strap that is not already integrated with quick-release spring bars, we include one free pair of strong, seamless double-flange stainless steel bars.

Q: What strap size do I need?
A: To determine your size, use a metric ruler to measure the internal distance (in millimeters) between the lugs of your watch.

It fits the watch and my wrist. Comfortable. Fragrant

I have this Casio from 2010 that I've neglected and kept for sentimental reasons. I got a rubber one because it's the closest material the original one came with. This was a triumphant find because I needed a strap that fits an 8 inch wrist but has a 18mm lug width. I like the texture, softness, flexibility and scent. I just wish it had quick release spring bars. I'm probably not going to wear this watch but I am comforted that the strap seems like it will last for another 15 years.

Excellent rubber strap

Got it for my Sinn 104 and outdoor adventures at Banff Canada. Excellent quality, super comfortable and really looks good on my Sinn 104. Like it so much I still haven't replaced it with my stainless steel bracelet now that I'm back at work.
As others have stated, has a slight vanilla scent that I don't mind. Also on my 7.25 wrist, strap was a bit long for my liking so trimmed it up about half an inch.
My 3rd strap from Holbens, great quality and excellent customer service!

Perfect rubber strap

Great quality, and it really does smell like vanilla. Great way to dress down the Seiko DressKX. This will be my pool companion on spring break.

Excellent quality!

I purchased the BC285 band for my Seiko Sumo. I went with the wider 22mm strap and trimmed the lugs down to 20mm with a Dremel and diamond cutting disc. The thickness of the strap at the lug end is a perfect match for the Sumo’s arms and the added width provides a nice taper from the case arms to the strap. I’ll be picking up another in blue.

The look and scent of summer

Bought this band to switch back and forth between my seamaster and Lorier Neptune. What a great watch band for warmer weather and pool days. The contrast between the orange band and the blue bezel of my Neptune is absolutely perfect. High quality rubber and a charming vanilla scent. You can't go wrong with this band!
