Moran Quick Release Leather Watch Bands Deployment Butterfly Buckle 18mm 20mm 22mm 24mm Blue Black Brown Calfskin Replacement Watch Strap for Men & Women

Nice replacement band. Came with a tool to remove your old watch band, the watchband itself, instructions, and a cleaning cloth. The color is a little lighter than navy, but it's fine. Fits my small 6.5 in wrist. Has two straps to secure the watch band. The quality seems pretty good. It's thick. The deployment clasp seems to stay in tack. Also has easy release if you want to change your watchbands Cons: it is stiff. The leather was a tad wider than 18mm but I manage to get it on.

Have been very pleased with this band, once I figured out a couple of things. The great news is that both the mechanism for attaching the band to the watch case and the clasp itself, are significant improvements to that which came originally on my $500+ MIDO. (It seems simple/intuitive - but the directions helped me understand) The band's circumference is a little small, especially when the leather is new and stiff, but it molded to shape over the first 10 days of wearing. It works perfectly for me, but perhaps not if you've got forearms like a linebacker. However, I found that by putting the band on correctly (by closing the buckle side first and then inserting the band's tail in the retaining bands before you lock the clasp,), it fits well and closes intuitively. I bought the royal blue band, which looks great without being cheesy; will probably buy the green for a little variety. (This is a sign of how easy it is to put the band on and off the watch).

The band is beautifully made and will be a great accessory to any watch. Nothing I can think of can match this product and I am really impressed how inexpensive it is. And it includes a quick release clasp to make it even more attractive. This is a Genuine Leather product, for those who know the leather grading. The listing dances around this part of the product description. I did not see it explicitly mentioned anywhere on the listing, but this was the first thing I noticed when I received this band. I am not a big fan of quick install pins as those compromise the integrity of the leather loop. It is easy enough to install a regular spring pin. I never had a problem with it. But I did not see a single listing on the Amazon for plain spring pin bands. Overall I am happy with the purchase and will recommend this brand to anyone looking for a fashionable accessory

Saved me $400+ compared to original. Nice band, install was a bit confusing to realize how to get the one end of the band with the sizing holes through the buckle and snap into the pin to secure it in place, but the pin mechanism can swivel about 90 degrees with a little pressure and then snaps into place. Band looks nice, we'll see how long it holds up. The original M.L. band I used to replace every two years after daily wear and tear, and I've paid up to $500 at times, so this is a good alternative. The difference between the brand name band I had was that it would feed the end of the strap underneath the metal buckle, so the metal of the buckle would never touch your wrist, just the strap going underneath. In this case, we'll see if it starts irritating after daily wear.

Moran Quick Release Leather Watch Bands Deployment Butterfly Buckle 20mm Blue Calfskin Replacement Watch Strap XL. I found this watch strap to be of great quality & value for the price. The watch band I purchased, XL is indeed extra long and fits well on my 8 inch wrist. I removed the quick release spring pins, as I don't trust any with my watches. The band will take a few days to mold to your wrist and soften up. I hope this helps some watch lovers looking for an extra long watch band.

It's really hard to put on! The three pieces of the clasp must all be aligned, AND you have to slip the end of the band thru the loop BEFORE you clasp it. I have a dozen watches, so I only wear this when a blue look is required. If I wore it every day I'd return the band. Very easy to install, not so easy to wear. It IS quick to release as claimed, just a pain to put on. UPDATE: I bought a different band. I was outside the return window, so this one is going eBay or file 13 to never be seen again. : /

Works, quick release is a nice function? Color blue is darker and matches my Bulova Lunar white and blue watch!

I was actually looking for a dark brown alligator pattern strap with quick release pins and standard buckle in rose gold, but nobody seems to offer it. So I ended up getting the Moran strap and bought the buckle separately. Unfortunately, because this Moran strap was designed for a butterfly clasp, there was no slit for the buckle tongue/prong in the pin loop at the end of the strap. I had to Xacto-knifed a little slit myself. I was able to make a pretty clean cut and didn't affect the integrity of the stitching that forms the loop for the pin. The strap came pretty stiff, but after a few wears, it's starting to break-in nicely. It's well padded, and I think it's going feel great once it's broken in like a well-used baseball mitt.
