FAQ

Q: Do you sell bands for women?
A: We do! Many of our short-length straps are the perfect size for women.

Q: Can you suggest a strap that looks amazing with my watch?
A: Unfortunately, because the range is so vast (and personal taste is subjective), we cannot advise regarding aesthetic suitability for specific models and styles of watches.

Q: I have an Apple watch. Will any of your straps work for me?
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.

Q: My Bonetto Cinturini deployant strap is too long. Can you help?
A: Of course! See our Bonetto Cinturini sizing guide for cutting instructions.

Q: Do you offer international shipping?
A: Yes! Visit our Shipping & Returns page for more information.

Q: May I return my purchase?
A: Holben's Fine Watch Bands accepts returns of unworn, undamaged merchandise for refund or exchange within thirty days of purchase. Learn more on our Shipping & Returns page.

Great choice

I paired this with my Orient Ray 2. It’s an outstanding combination. It’s stiff when new and it takes some patience to get it broken in.

It’s a bit pricey but a good replacement for the rubber OEM that comes with the Ray 2 and a welcome change from a NATO.

Great sporty band

As soon as I opened the package, I observed the obvious quality of the band. The leather was nicely tanned, the padded areas were substantial and well defined and the stitching was strong and bold. The under side of the band is properly finished. No lining or synthetic, but the leather was well manicured to avoid the roughness you find in bands of a less expensive price point. The band is a bit stiff and will take some time to break in fully, but this is to be expected. I like the retention ribbon that secures the floating loop. I was unsure about the two “tab” design pieces that sit closest to the watch on either side. I think I would still prefer it without that design element, but it has grown on me quite a bit and would still purchase it again. I agree with the reviewer that commented on the companies recommendation to change the band in 6 months. I don’t see that being necessary. It will just be fully broken in after 6 mos, but I don’t wear this watch every day. For context, I have the strap on the new Longines Ultra-Chron reissue. Perfect accent! Buy with confidence….it’s worth the money!

The best yet

This is the absolute best leather strap I have seen so far. Using it heavy with my Ball Roadmaster GMT as I could not get the perfect size with the bracelet. This strap is adapting masterfully to my wrist. I have noticed that the inner leather-cover have started to loosen from the next layer were I habe given it most tear & wear. I will glue it back together, but it is room for improvement from D1 there. Otherwise very pleased. I am currently waiting for a D1 pilot strap for one of my other watches😊
