High quality product at a reasonable price!
This is my second purchase of this watch band. The watch band was very well packed and included spare watch pins and a metal adjustment tool to separate the portions of the strap along with a tool to help remove the band from the watch The adjustment tool is made of metal; so don't dispose of it when the strap is finished. You will be satisfied with this purchase.Installation TIPS: 1. Remove the old watch strap. 2. Lay the new watch strap alongside the old one. 3. Determine how many portions you must remove from the new strap. I recommend removing portions evenly. Observe the direction to push out the connecting pins on the strap ( if more than one portion, take them out evenly from each side to center the buckle. ) 4. Reconnect the strap by placing the pins back in the way they came out! 5. I find it easier to use an extra portion of the strap to help push the connecting pin in place. Using a small hammer, place the watch strap so the pin is vertical on a strong surface. Holding the strap and the extra portion vertically, tap gently with a hammer. This will be easier than using the metal (mine was red) pin extraction tool to push the pin into the proper position.

Really nice bracelet, like matte finish and safety clasp
This is a well made bracelet, the links have a nice squared off look, a matte finish and a safety clasp. The 1,2, 3 things I was looking for. Price was very reasonable, when purchased through Amazon Warehouse. But is still a really nice bracelet. I like the safety clasp because I do a lot of work with my arms, and do want the bracelet to fly open. I think the finish is durable, but I won't really know until I put it through its passes on the coming months. Even the more expensive ion finished on Seiko and Bulova will wear through, so who knows.

worth the money
Overall, I must say I'm fairly happy with the purchase.Read some reviews before the purchase and pretty much agree with the general sentiment towards this $20 bracelet.The good-links feels sturdy-angled 'cut' of the links reminds me of the Hexad collection from Strapcode. Looks good.-the black coating is reasonably consistent.-some review complained about the included tool not doing enough to remove links, but you need to understand the pin only goes out in one way, and you need to reverse the direction when putting it back in. (the pin widens at only one end which allow the pin to stay in its place as it create more friction as it is pressed.)The bad-CLASP. this is where the manufacturer cut corners. some sharp edges, potentially hazardousfor people with thin skin.-I have removed 3 links(2 on one side and 1 on the other) to size it for my 7.5" wrist, and when I re-join links, the fit was very very stiff.-does not specify what kind of coating it has (for the black one). Can't expected to be PVD at this price point anyway, let alone DLC.

Good looking bracelet and fantastic value for money
Just get it. Don’t read too much into the negative reviews. I was gifted this watch by my company. It came with a brown strap which was looking flimsy. It badly needed a face lift. I ordered it yesterday and it got delivered today. Bracelet links has nice cuts and it is easy to install. Also it has a decent weight to it. It comes is nice box and it has all the tools you need. I went ahead ordered the engineering bracelet today for my citizen and keeping my fingers crossed hoping it will fit nicely like this. Aliexpress probably carry bracelets similar to this. But why do you have to wait for something which shipped all the way from China. Amazon carries these bracelets. If you don’t like it, you can always return it. This is a keeper..PS: not sure about black coated bracelets and how they perform. Looks like black ones gets scratched easily.

Amazing, heavy, well built stainless steel band
Bought a Tissot Sea Star on sale with a silicon strap for $300 off retail, went to find the a metal band on their site and it was $169. This was $16 - 1/10th of the price - and looks just as good.Heavy feel, not clinky like some cheap metal bands. Added a pics of before and after.100% recommend

Caution: Product has issues with sizing
I purchased a 22mm bracelet, which is supposed to have 22mm end links. However, the first bracelet I received had end links that were shorter in width than the rest of links in the bracelet. Thinking it was a fluke, I requested an exchange and promptly received a replacement bracelet. Nope! The replacement bracelet has the same issue as the first one I received: the end links are slightly rounded and therefore are closer in size to 21mm than 22mm. I don’t know if this is a machining issue or what, but it doesn’t fit snug like it should. The extra space causes the bracelet to fit improperly and slides/rattles around on the watch when worn. To help better explain what I mean, I have attached photos of both the watch box confirming the 22mm size and photos of the bracelet on the watch showing the discrepancy in the width of the end link. The watch bracelet was purchased as a replacement bracelet for an Orient Ray II, which has a lug width of 22mm. Sadly, I will be returning both bracelets and requesting my money back. It’s a shame because it’s a handsome bracelet and matches the Ray II perfectly!

The pins are too weak
I had this watch band for a little over a month and a half. It looks good fits good and was easy to install. My only complaint is that the pins used to hold the band to the watch face are weak. I have broken all four pins that came with my watch band in the month and a half that I had it. I am not easy on my watch bands because of my active life. But I'm not impressed with the durability of this watch band and would only recommend it to people that are not going to put stress on this watch band.

Watch Band Bingo!
Very pleased with this watch band and the value for price paid. Solid, angled links give it a very rugged appearance. No taper on the band. I found it easy to remove links for proper sizing. The clasp has a total of three micro adjust options, and I was able to get the right fit for my wrist. I used the supplied watch band pins, as the stock ones were too large for straight ends on this band. The supplied pins fit my watch lugs well, but look to be a bit on the lightweight end of the durability spectrum. The 20mm width of the watchband was spot-on and fits my Citizen BN0151 Promaster dive watch perfectly.
