I ordered nine other bands total before I purchased this one. All the others were anywhere from $8 to $30. They were all horrible compared to this band. I did have some fraying around the holes and some loose threads after the first week. I used a lighter and it took them away. I was going to rate it 4 stars and if it had steel grommets it would be 5 stars. This would add to the cost so I'll give it 5 stars for the price I paid. I will be buying another when this is wore out. And I would pay more if it had steel grommets.
Wanted a comfortable and durable strap with some style for my Citizen Tough. This one checks all the boxes.
The Grey has been my favorite of the 850 series it works so well with tool watches and usually the buckle can be swithed over for the brand of buckle for the watch.
Here's my Sinn EZM3 with the grey strap and a Sinn buckle.
I like the look of the Cordura used in this strap. It has an attractive, subtle sheen. This green strap goes nicely with a bronze diver that I have in my collection.
Perfect for my Aristo Flieger, color looks great, high quality cordura, water resistant, Lorica lining is kind of stiff .
I bought this for a different watch than pictured but didn’t like the color combo. I found the strap to be very nice for the money and like it better than the Eluit canvas strap I also got from Holbens. I liked it on the speedy immediately and after a couple days it is starting to break in nicely. Fast shipping and always and another great experience with Holbens. Thanks!
Excellent strap! Quite substantial, and great for everyday wear. Love the thickness, and how it makes a smaller vintage timepiece appear larger. This was an excellent purchase, and one I'm sure I will make again in other colors!
I'm very happy with the quality and looks of this strap. I've only been wearing it for about a week so I cant speak to the longevity of it but seem like it will last a long time. The leather underside is very comfortable as well. It's a great match for my Hamilton Khaki automatic. I'll be buying a second one this time in grey.
Got this for the Seiko Alpinist and it matches perfectly. Nice thickness with a little padding makes this a very comfortable band.
Rugged and well crafted. Item description is spot on.

I bought this Wyler Swiss vintage watch at a yard sale for 50 cents added this strap, wow: it looks like I paid big bucks for this watch. This band is very comfortable and felt right from the first time I wore it. Changing the band on this vintage watch made it 100% now.
This is a nicely made strap. The texture of the material is very pleasant. There is padding, making the strap a bit stiff, so it takes a while for this strap to break in.
Looking for a nice cordura green strap and this more than fit the bill
I bought the Hadley-Roma MS 850 Cordura as a replacement band for my Luminox. It looks great. It has a nice, rugged look that is comfortable to wear. Thanks again Mike for the fast responsive customer service! I will definitely use Holben's for my next watch band purchase.
Wanted a two piece for a TR Paradive and it is perfect. Excellent quality and quick shipping.
This strap. Looks great and it is comfortable.At first it is stiff but it becomes more comfortable and you wear it.
Looks great, feels comfy, would recommend.
I ordered the navy and the green Hadley-Roma Cordura straps and am very happy with both of them. They have a subtle sheen that helps make the color stand out. I bought this navy one for a blue dialed dive watch and I think that it looks great with it. I would have no hesitation in buying more Hadley-Roma straps in the future.
Perfect match for my brown dial Combat 6 and shipped super fast!
Very, very high quality. Will order more in the future.
From Famous Holbens. Very quick shipment. High quality item.
