Customer Reviews
Ordered an 18mm for my old Seiko. It technically requires a 17mm but this still works great. Love the color, and the outstanding comfort. Will certainly buy more in the future!
A perfect match for the Tudor Black Bay Steel.
This is my first Erika's. Comfortable and great looking. Couldn't be more pleased!
I can be a little clumsy with a 2-piece strap, but I prefer them over metal bracelets. I wanted to try an elastic strap, and of three options I found I decided to go for this brand. I like the “tough” feel of the band, how it looks with my Hamilton, how close the watch sits to my wrist - quite pleased. My only improvement suggestion would be on the interaction of the clip-and-buckle. I have to use my thumb to press and open a gap under the buckle so the clip can successfully go in — a little awkward, but I’m getting better at it.
5 star for the holbens and their extraordinary , professional customer service but 3 star for the Erika’s ! I have a lot more straps and bracelets than my watches in my collection and find it fun to replace them all the time. I have so many similar straps to this one and Despite its high quality and uniqueness I still think Erika’s straps are way more expensive to what you are getting . I have tried many different brands up to $45 and I think this is gonna be my only Erica . But as a watch enthusiast I think at least one Erika is a must have product in your collection!
