I bought this strap to compliment an SNK mod build. The design of this watch strap is a homerun; really retro unique. The color comes off as a bit too orangey and calls into question the quality of the actual leather. Stiff leather around the spring bars and large holes for the spring bars make fitting a bit of a pain.
Great construction and quality, soft leather texture. Beware of the strap dimension in conjunction with your watch lug width. In my case (7.75"/197mm wrist size) and paired with my Bulova lunar watch (47mm lug to lug) the strap feels short. I actually purchased another (similar / Di-Model Pilot) strap with more generous dimensions.
I originally purchased this band for a Zeppelin LZ129 moon phase watch, but fell in love with how it looked on the Bulova Lunar Pilot. The taper down from the case is wonderful and the Cognac color is fantastic. Despite the thickness of the band, it has broken in relatively quickly and is very comfortable. I will definitely be looking at adding some other color RIOS1931 bands to swap out, these are great quality!
Band dovetailed perfectly with the lugs on my Phoibos py 007c. Solid and sturdy just like the watch.
My dad bought me an Omega Speadmaster Auto when I graduated. I've worn it with the original bracelet almost everyday for the last twenty five years and wanted to see how a leather strap would look.
This is a really nice strap, excellent quality, very competitivly priced, spring bars included.
Took about a day to break in, really quite comfortable.
