Barton Quick Release - Top Grain Leather Watch Band Strap - Choice of Width - 16mm, 18mm, 19mm, 20mm, 21mm 22mm, 23mm or 24mm

I had gotten this band for my first gen moto 360. In the description, it notes as "not ideal" and that is because the portion of the band that will snap in has a lot of leather, and there is not much room in the moto 360 band holder. But if you squeeze it and finagle it, it will fit.Onto the actual review - I was wearing the band for about 2 or 3 weeks when I had an issue with the stitching on the underside of the band. I emailed Barton about this and after a couple quick email exchanges with Zach from Barton, a new one was sent out! Long story short, I got the new band and the stitching is perfect on this one.The quality of the leather is great and breaks in very well, which was a characteristic of both bands I had gotten. Looks sleek, and feels great. The underside of the leather turns a darker beige the more you wear it, but that is expected as sweat and dirt will get into the pores of the leather. Any band will do that.Perfect length for me; I use the 5th band notch as I have somewhat smaller wrists.Quick release is a very nice addon, especially for the moto 360 because there is not much room to mess with anything. So the quick release really comes in handy with the moto 360. I can see it not being a necessity for other watches (be it smart or not), but it is really a life saver with the moto 360.Overall, extremely happy with the band and the support from Barton. My next band will be from Barton, but that may take some time to get to the point of needing a new band.

I got this to go my Longines Spirit watch & its a perfect fit, it looks great too. The quick release pins makes the strap an easy install & I love the way it looks against the watch. I'm glad they're made in odd ball sizes too (19mm in my case). Its also top grain leather & not genuine leather which means it will last longer than other cheap leather straps.

Purchased for my Raketa Antarctica. Note for this particular watch is that most bands are extremely challenging to put on due to how close the lugs are to the case, but I was able to get this one on after a struggle. The strap is a nice, smooth black leather with bright orange thread accents. It was stiff, but curved naturally to my wrist after a day or two.I have two gripes. First, the packaging was IMO excessive. It comes in a thick, high quality cardboard box, then the strap has its own protective cover over it. It's a watch strap, I could honestly care less about the presentation when opening it and all I'm going to do with a fancy cardboard box is toss it in the recycling bin.Second, the back of the strap wrinkled (see pic) almost immediately. I have several leather watch bands with much more wear on them (this is a watch I rare maybe a couple times a month) and none have done this before. It's on the back so it's not really noticeable but it still happened.

Fantastic band, great material and very comfortable, doesn’t need to be “broken in” like other cheap leather bands.

Worth buying. Great quality.

I bought the gingerbread 20mm leather watch band for my Samsung Sport watch. I have small wrists, 5.5", so was worried this band would not fit. However it fits great, I wear it on the 3rd from last hole loosely or the 2nd hole for a tighter fit.Swapping to this band was easy. There are springs in the hinges to help secure to the watch face. It appears to attach securely, so it won't come unattached- therefore losing my expensive smart watch!After 2 days of wearing, I have not broken out in a rash from the clasp. I have allergies to most metals, this happened to my last band I bought for this watch.CONI have 1 con, the band squeaks at the point of contact between the watch band and the metal watch. Anytime friction occurs between these two, it squeaks. The watch band is thick, therefore it touches the metal on the side of the watch (the hinge part). 95% of the time this is not an issue, but whenever I apply pressure to the watch (i.e. to use it, check notifications, etc.) It squeaks. It doesn't squeak when I move my arm/wrist to check the time. All in all, its not really a big deal.OVERALL IMPRESSIONI am overall impressed with this band. It fits securely to my watch, looks nice, fits my small wrists, and seems well made. The band is unisex, I knew going into buying the samsung sport watch, the watch is a bit more masculine due to its huge size (I'm female and due to smaller wrists I've always stayed toward more delicate watches/jewelry), but this band works to make it more neutral, it can be feminine or masculine. I am going to wear it for a wee bit longer to see how it holds up, then I will probably buy more of the colors to accessorize. Its been tough finding watch bands that are small enough to fit my wrists, but I am hoping I found a line of bands to stay faithful to!I will update if the band doesn't hold up, otherwise if you don't see an update, no problems have occurred.
