Headquartered in Klagenfurt, Austria, Hirsch was established in 1765 as a leather workshop and tannery. It remains a family-owned business to this day, and continues to win awards for excellence and innovation in watch strap design.

An ideal bracelet for sports and diving watches, the Hirsch Pure is constructed of premium, thick, natural caoutchouc rubber. Pure is completely waterproof, dimensionally stable, tear-proof, and resistant to external influences such as UV light and chemicals. Suitable for those with sensitive skin, it is moisture-regulating and dries quickly thanks to its concave underside (only the edges touch the wrist). A built-in stopper secures the keeper and prevents the strap from twisting and slipping.

All of our Hirsch straps are integrated with handy quick-release spring bars. Prefer standard spring bars? Quick-release bars are easy to remove: simply slide the lever as far as you can to the left, then gently bend back the strap corner until the bar emerges from the slot.

Material:

Premium natural caoutchouc rubber.
Hirsch-branded polished stainless steel buckle.

FAQ

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.

Rubber doesn’t get much better than this.

I use several types of straps in my collection, but good rubber is my favorite. I’ve been around the block with many rubber straps, this is one of the best for sure. This strap is very FKM like, and thankfully has no scent. I cannot use the vanilla scented straps as they give me a headache. The biggest selling point is the sizing. Not nearly enough straps offer multiple sizes and it makes all the difference. I ordered the “short” strap and it’s perfect for my 7 inch wrist. I definitely recommend the Hirsch Pure!

Minimalistic

High quality, comfortable, breathable, and scent free. Short length is perfect for 6 1/2 inch wrists. A minor caveat is the keepers are a little tight and not the most graceful to slide the strap through.

High Quality Rubber Strap

I bought a “M” Hirsch Pure Black strap. The only rubber straps I’m familiar with are the ones from BONETTO CINTURINI or OEM Panerai. I’d say this Hirsch strap is closer to the Panerai. The quality, comfort, and attention to detail. Plus they are both made out of the Caoutchouc rubber.
The strap is thin but has a nice suppleness to it. It is a matte black and looks great on everything I’ve tried it on. Other reviews said the underside was flat. It definitely has a curve to the underside. For me, it works great to allow the skin to breathe and not have holes cut into the strap that can be sharp sometimes. The strap and buckle are light and comfortable. The quick-release spring bars are really nice and high quality. My only issue is the sizing. I bought a short “M” size and it’s a tad small. I thought from the 110x70mm sizing it would be good but I wish I bought the regular “L” version. I got around this by removing the second keeper. I’ve got it on an Omega Seamaster 300 36mm Midsize. The strap is so good though, that I’ll probably buy the “L”.

Great

Currently deployed getting the hell beat out of it with no issues.

Very nice material and buckle. The shape is just flat ...

Material 5 stars
Buckle 5 stars
Shape 3 stars
So the rating should really be 4.5 stars.
I really wish they made the straps curve where they connect to the watch.
Then this would have been the perfect strap ...
Compare with the $50 FKM strap that hugs the hand much better:
