Originating from Vicenza, Italy, Bonetto Cinturini creates OEM rubber dive straps for multiple renowned watch brands. This family-owned company has been in business for more than forty years.

They do not collect lint and dust like silicone rubber and are resistant to salt and UVA rays. In addition, they have a subtle, pleasant vanilla scent.
Featuring a streamlined profile with a smooth finish and beveled edges, Model 306 in Nero/Black is a versatile choice that complements a wide range of watches.

If you're looking for a heavy duty rubber strap this one may be for you. The quality and robustness is apparent right away. It is quite thick so IMO it pairs best with a diver but to each their own. I'm docking it one star because it isn't the most breathable strap. The underside is completely flat and has no grooves or channels so I find myself loosening the buckle to the next hole when my wrist gets too sweaty. All in all a great strap but something to be aware of if you're going to be out in the sun and doing anything active.
I actually got this one in two colors because I had heard great things about the brand, originally because I wanted a red strap (and thought having a black one would come in handy). They smell really nice and are smooth and soft rubber, on par with the nicest OEM’s I have and leagues above something like stock seiko silicone. My only qualm is that they are simply too fat to fit the watch I was going to put them on comfortably (smiths everest), but this seems more like the lug spacing is small than the strap being unusually large. For now im going to keep them in my strap drawer because they are genuinely quite nice and impressive for the price, and I know the standard 20mm will be versatile and come in handy
This is smooth, nicely finished quality rubber. Tasteful lines, the style and the grey color look great with the Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical. One minor thing: the strap would be more flexible/comfortable if it did not get thicker towards the lugs, hence the 4 star rating.
As always, fantastic service from Holben's. They are my go to for straps, I don't even bother looking elsewhere.
