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 me shorten it?
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.

Need help with sizing?
  • Inspect the underside of your current watch strap for width indicators.

Excellent buffalo leather strap for pilot watches

Great buffalo leather strap. The strap is very comfortable and durable, thick but not stiff. It is very supple and doesn’t need to be broken in. It is just what I was looking for to compliment my Hanhart pilot chronograph. Nice color as well. You can’t go wrong with this strap.

Seiko Flightmaster replacement strap

Excellent buffalo leather, it is very supple and doesn’t need to be broken in. I have been looking for a good strap replacement for my flighty because original is just horrific (just my opinion). I know a lot of folks are getting the green nato strap but I’m not a big fan of natos so this is a good alternative if you are looking for something different with a 21mm lug size.

Excellent quality, but recommended for 7” wrists and above

Very nice strap for the price! Supple, yet durable leather. I have a 7” wrist and it fits on the very last notch. I would recommend only for wrists 7” and above unless you are willing to add more holes to the strap. I purchased the Cognac strap and it is a very beautiful color.

Buffalo Strap.

The buffalo strap is just what I was looking for to compliment my IWC Big Pilot 43. The strap is very comfortable and buffalo hide so durable. You can’t go wrong with this strap.

Great strap!

This strap is an incredible value for the price! The leather and construction are top notch and I expect it will last a very long time. Only issue is that it does run a little large. I had to use an awl to make another hole, but the overall length of the strap is perfect.

New Favorite strap

Perfect for my Seiko Sportura (21mm). Leather is a cut above the cheap Amazon stuff by mile. 8.25 inch wrist fit well.

Great strap

High quality and great wearability from day 1, with almost no break in period. My only small negative is the buckle, which is good but nothing special; it just gets the work done. Maybe better for lager wrists (fits my 7.5 + inch wrist perfectly). Overall I do really recommend this strap.
