WOCCI 22mm Braided Nylon Watch Band for Men and Women, Quick Release, Black Stainless Steel Buckle (Khaki Green)

I bought this watch band for an older Timex Expedition I've had for many years. The watch itself was made in what everyone today refers to as a "field watch." In fact Timex is still selling a watch that looks almost exactly like mine, but chances are it's larger in diameter, as the trend of late is to make watches look like you're wearing a dinner plate. It was a gift from my wife, and it quickly became one of my favorites to wear. Like many of today's field watches, it has a dark earth brown metal watch case, with an off-white creamy colored dial and clear, concise Arabic numerals at all of the indices. It also arrived wearing a comfortable watch band made up of khaki-colored cloth, with portions in military style olive-drab green and small areas finished in dark brown leather. This is a two-piece watch band that closes with a buckle-type clasp. It set the watch off perfectly for many years. Unfortunately, with the passage of those years the band was showing its age, and so I began looking for a replacement. Since most Timex watches are relatively inexpensive to start with, there usually are no exact replacement bands available (come on Timex, I'm still rocking the 21-jewel self-wind watch my mother got me back in 1963! You could be making beaucoup bucks selling original-style replacement watch bands for so many of your past iconic watches!). Anyway, I wound up trying a new nylon olive-drab modified NATO band for my Expedition. The look was different from the original, but it did look good and the price wasn't exorbitant. Unfortunately, too many watch band suppliers don't always give complete size information, and in my case the new band fit with the buckle being set at the next to the last hole to be comfortable. While this didn't make the watch band unusable, it did mean that the loose-end of the band didn't quite fit all-of-the-way through both steel keeper loops sewn into the band. That means they're fixed in place; you cannot slide them closer to the buckle, and that allowed the end of the watch band to frequently come out of the second keeper and hang out, loose. To me that says the band itself is too small for my wrist. I've had this problem with other bands over the years. When I happened upon the webpage for these braided bands and noted the size of wrists it should fit I ordered one in olive-drab. Well, these bands look different, and they are different. Not bad, just different. Once on the watch and then on my arm, they remind me of some of those woven metal watch bands they sometimes call "Milanese." If you've tried one of these bands then you know that once on, the clasp is barely noticeable, the band is exceptionally adjustable in sizing and there is no loose end of the band as typical buckle-type of watch bands have. I'm finding this braided watch band to be exceptionally comfortable to wear and does a fine job of keeping my watch in place despite the "stretchiness" of braided nylon. It does take a few adjustments to get the fit just-right, but this is an easy thing to do and takes just a few seconds. I like these bands, and for a very affordable price it makes for a nice change for your watch!

Excellent watch band - initially I was concerned about the folded part of the strap making the band look lopsided but the fold flattens after wearing it and it is a perfect, as well as comfortable, fit

Worked well until it broke after roughly 6 months. Did great with water, dirt, and even grease from motors was washed out easily. Comfortable and well fitted. Easy to adjust. After lots of inpacts the side piece gave in and that was it. Good stuff for the price.

i love my amazfit active 2 smart watch! but it's stock silicone band was too short. the nylon canvas replacement band i bought was either a bit tight or a bit loose depending on which hole I chose to buckle to. as goldilocks would say, this one is just right! easy to adjust, easy to clasp, easy to wear. (just remember that closing the clasp is 2 stages - place the curved metal thingy over the keeper that's attached to the band, and then close the clasp.) i wanted a khaki color; not the green khaki they offer, but, you know, khaki. the starlight color they offer just seems a little too light colored; like it would always be getting dirty. so i bought the brown. turns out it's a slightly more orangey brown than what their brown appears (on my monitor) to be. and i really like it. and if they ever offer a true khaki color, i'm gettin' it! been wearin' this thing for about 2 weeks now. mowin' and trimmin' the yard, workin' in the garden. high temps, high humidity, lots of sweat. it's comfortable, because it fits just right, and it's still lookin' good!

Purchased, in green khaki, for a Wolbrook Skindiver I have a pretty good collection of Dive Watches, and over the years have purchased quite a number of bands. Lots of NATO straps, occasional leather, rubber dive straps, parachute straps and probably others. From the super cheap ones, to Blu Shark and above. This strap is likely the most comfortable and simple strap I have ever put on a watch. Nothing dangling out of a loop, no need to do some weird pass, or modify a NATO so the watch doesn't stick an inch off your wrist and get caught on everything. It is well constructed, soft, the woven pattern is tight and without loose threading, the "end links" are plastic, but well made and clean. It is infinitely adjustable, but the strap is elastic enough to have some give, but keeps in one place on your wrist. And does both comfortably. I like it so much I ordered two more. One for an SKX and one for a Serica. If there is a negative to the strap, it would only be that a version with regular spring bars be available, and not just the quick release pins. I just trust those more, although the quick release on these seems reliable.

It was good and comfy until one of the ends that attach to the watch broke. It is plastic so not too surprising. It lasted nine months.

Great watch band - super easy to install. Very comfortable and easily adjustable.

Excellent value for the price point. Nylon stretches easily to take off or put on over large hands, and is surprisingly soft. Clasp is secure both for adjusting size and for wear. Nylon is also very durable for outdoor/working use, but like any fabric it will get dirty and needs to be cleaned regularly if you want to preserve the appearance. I don't consider this any sort of high fashion - just a comfortable band while working with my hands. To clean completely you will have to remove the watch and reinstall unless you own a 100% guaranteed water proof shockproof watch. Minus one star for lack of practicality if you want to keep the band looking like new. Otherwise recommended as good value, secure while working in any environment, and reasonably presentable in appearance.
