Snagged a Bulova Lunar Pilot at a fabulous price. While I love the watch, the included strap was underwhelming (to put it mildly). I had reviewed a couple Benchmark Basics bands during my brief stint as a Vine reviewer and was duly impressed with them both, so I went straight to their storefront to find a replacement. Again, I am not disappointed.Strap itself is thick and beefy, yet soft and supple and gives my Lunar Pilot a NATO strap look without the additional hardware that comes with a NATO. I am particularly pleased that the buckle and tang are equally beefy, which is not usually the case with straps at this price point. Stitching, too, is appears to be rugged and well done given the strap's bargain basement price.I do wish they offered a model with a black steel buckle, but given the grey stripes in the strap, the brushed steel buckle doesn't detract from the stealthy vibe of the black Lunar Pilot.Only time will tell (ha!) whether it holds up and I will update my review accordingly if it turns out to be a stinker. For now, however, I am more than satisfied.

about item

Double layer (2.8mm) seat belt nylon has a smooth finish and high sheen that elevates your favorite diver, field or dress watch.

Available in multiple colors so you can swap bands to match any occasion.
- HIGH QUALITY CONSTRUCTION – Heavy-duty stainless-steel buckle in a brushed finish.

I've been wearing this band on my Wyze Watch 47 for over a week solid -- day and night. Incidentally, the color is a spot-on match with the Wyze case. I wear the watch day and night to track activity and sleep patterns. I find the band to be super comfortable. It's soft and flexible. It molds nicely to my wrist. As others have noticed, it seems to be made out of seatbelt material but it's softer than you would expect. The material is doubled-up, so it's quite thick. This caused some issues getting the band installed, but once it was on, it has stayed on quite well. Also worth mentioning is that the buckle is stainless steel; this is important since I have a Nickel allergy and many watch bands have started irritating my wrist. I recommend this band.

Nice texture, much better than rubber straps, but those pins can disconnect from the watch.I had to buy regular pins and replace.
Rachel Myers
Very nice seatbelt quality strap for a very low price. Looks great on my watch, very comfortable!

I want to buy way more of these. You need to release more colors like red, brown, and gold+black. Also having a 21mm size would be very nice a lot of us with a 21mm watch are starving for fitting straps.These are extremely comfortable and nice looking, and they seem quite durable as well.

I wanted a replacement watch bank for my smart watch. This one was the size needed and the blue color is beautiful. Looks like the picture. The bands were easy and quick to replace. The band is thick and well made. Looks like it will last for a long time. I have no complaints.

This is a well made and very comfortable strap. The length is plenty for my larger wrist with space to spare unlike a couple of other brands I've tried. It took a bit more work to attach to the watch than other straps; the part that the quick connect is in is slightly wider than others so you have to squeeze it into place more than you might expect to get it secure. Once in place it's in no danger of coming out and it still moves plenty freely to adapt to your wrist when wearing the watch.

Very good and nicely made. Of course the adjustments are always too tight or too loose but that's not their fault. Good product.
