Q: Do you sell watch 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 quality for a fair price

This is an excellent strap for its price. A nice addition to my seiko alpinist.

Great quality, great price

Padded at the lugs, thin at the buckle which is smart. Just the thing for a change of pace for my Seiko Presage. I realized after I wore it for a day on the butterfly deployant that because of how thin the strap is at the buckle, it actually is more comfortable on the supplied buckle.

Love it!

Purchased this strap 3 weeks ago to switch out the steel bracelet on my Speedy. So far I’ve been impressed with how fast I received my order. The quality of the leather, the strap design itself and the finish is quite impressive as well. Feels quite supple and already taken the shape of my wrist. They say that Horween SC gets better with time so I’ll try to post update in a few months. So far I’m very happy with my purchase and I would definitely recommend.

Brown Fluco Horween Shell Cordovan

I've bought several great shell cordovan straps from Holben's, and this one is no exception. The brown color is beautiful and has depth, which I appreciate over the black shell I generally wear. All Fluco straps I've owned have been well constructed and long lasting. The padding is also perfect; not too thick or thin, but just right. The stitching is even and the right thickness to wear in both dressy and more casual situations. I've found that these Fluco padded straps are very versatile in this regard, and can highly recommend them for daily use.

I can’t help but notice

I can’t help but notice i’ve bought probably close to 100 different Apple Watch bands and bracelets over the years and usually you put them on the watch and forget it till it’s time for a change but in the case of this beautiful shell cordovan strap classic I find myself every now and again admiring it I will be buying more.
