Customer Reviews
Really Poor - weak watch retention and significant scent retention - Reviewed on 2008-07-06
1 customer found this review not to be helpful.
While this watch band does wrap quickly, that is just about all it does well. Due to the largely nylon ("leather-cloth"? More like nylon cloth with a sewed-on leather patch) construction of the watch band, it picks up liquids and scents readily, and retains them unless you vigorously wash and dry the band, every day.
After less than a month of my using the band, it began to smell like bacteria fermenting sugars to vinegar, as did my wrist after wearing the watch for any period of time.
Still worse, then watch proper attaches to the band via a strip of elastic-like material that loops behind the watch and over the main nylon band. While highly flexible to accommodate the fattest watch bodies, the elastic material is almost comically weak for a band with the "expedition" logo on it.
If you want an easily adjustable replacement watch band, I would strongly recommend investigating rubberized plastic watch bands, since the scent and weakness of the attachment on this band make it.
Avoid.
