Focusing on fine detail and handmade craftsmanship at reasonable prices, deBeer has supplied leather straps for both men and women to high-end retailers for more than thirty years. Their leather straps undergo sixty separate manufacturing stages, and include quality finishing details such as folded and stitched keepers and reinforced stitching behind the buckle. DeBeer's buckles are made in Germany from premium stainless steel, and their nubuck leather lining is engineered to be water- and perspiration-resistant.
A great strap for the price. It is well made and looks great. It’s not the softest material, but it wears well once broken in. I like the lighter colour for summer over the factory strap on my Orient star dress watch.
With my largish wrist, I got tired of getting straps that barely fit on the last hole. This one is nice and a good value. Looks great on a vintage dressy watch.
Strap is of excellent quality for the low price and really looks great with my Hamilton jazzmaster.
This is my first embossed crock strap, and, considering the price, I’m really happy with it. Gives my SARB035 a classic look.
Shipping time was great. When the band arrived, it was neatly packaged and had no flaws/scratches anywhere. It’s a great quality band and looks much more expensive than it is. It looks great with my vintage Hamilton.
The only issue I have, is that the band is just a tiny hair bigger than 18mm so I had to push it down slightly which damaged the band the tiniest amount.
Overall, I love it and I’m very satisfied. I’ll definitely be buying bands from here in the future.
I got this for a 50-year-old Elgin I wear a lot. The band appears to be well constructed, and it looks nice. It gives the watch a dressy look. It is a little stiff, but I imagine it will get softer with use. Holbens sells some fine-quality bands at reasonable prices.
I purchased my Marlin with the mesh bracelet to make it more sporty/casual. So I purchased 2 different leather straps to give me some versatility. Both straps are great quality & much more rich looking than their price would leave you to believe. Besides the DeBeer alligator patterned Havana, which gives this watch a business attire feel, I also got a beautiful Blue lizard by Debeer which looks great with my suits. Both look put together well, so I expect many years of service. Holben's processed my order promptly and I recieved my order in 3 business days down in central Florida. If I need any straps for my other watches I will do so through Holben's, again.
Overall, this is a great strap--the color and size are both as expected.
I am a small-wristed fella (6.25"), so I am glad I very appreciative of the variety of shorter straps offered by Holben's.
Like I said, the color and size are expected. The finish is a tad glossy and the strap is a little stiff still (I've had it for several weeks), but by virtue of the shorter length, that seems expected.
Got the band. So far, it hasn't made me worried it would fall off or break and feels sturdy. The quality feels nice, I accidentally bought alligator instead of snakeskin but honestly, the band I got looks nice enough so it's cool.
I shopped extensively for price and quality and I found it here at Holben's. The DeBeer's Alligator Black Leather Strap is a great purchase. They say you get what you pay for, with this purchase you get more!!
