The pictures look to be a bit darker than the strap actually is though this is a very nice quality watch strap. The width at the lugs is dead-on not "about" or a little under over sized for what is stated. The watch I replaced the band on had a poly band and was a little too rigid and "pinched" my wrist. Just after I swapped the original poly to this leather strap the watch is much more comfortable. The stitching is contrasting and almost a cream color not a stark white which means it won't show dirt after the first wearing and adds a sporty yet classic look. There's a bit of tapering but it's not excessive and adds to the comfort. The strap does not come with spring pins but you'll probably transfer your original ones if they're in good condition anyhow - I recommend buying a spring pin tool for easy removal/install they are only a few dollars here on Amazon. Hadley-Roma produces leather and exotic straps for some pretty well known watch brands - these will NOT look like watch straps purchased at a big box store and while I don't wear just one watch from day to day the other watches with Hadley-Roma straps hold up very well - quality is top notch.

This band is outstanding. I bought it for my Pulsar which looks similar to my Tag. I wear the Omega every day. Well this band is as nice or nicer than the band on my Tag! I may replace it with this one soon. Excellent product. Oh yeah the customer service at the company is good too. I bought the wrong size band at first, contacted the company about an exchange. They didn't do anything special but they were professional and that's all I ask for. Buy with confidence.In both photos the Tag, with its branded band, is on the left and the Pulsar with the Hadley-Roma is on the right. One photo is with indoor light and the other photo is in bright sunlight. Compare the 2 visually for yourself. Ignore the mark on the Hadly-Roma. I wear the watch everyday and beat it up pretty good (I'm a network engineer so some days I'm sitting at a computer in khakis and a collared shirt and others I'm running cable in some rough environments. I also work on cars and with my hands in general so I'm rough on the watch and the band). I put the mark on the band but don't know where or when because a watch is a tool to me and I buy quality tools because they hold up best. Well the Omega is quality (yeah so's the Tag) and so's the Hadley-Roma! Sweat, rain, oil, paint, snagging on misc crap, ... and the thing looks fantastic! At this writing I've had the band on it for over 4 months.

Beautiful strap. Great value. Leather is nice and the white stitching is perfect. Wear it with a white/cream faced watch, or a watch with white accenting and this strap will fit in perfectly. I wear it with my cream faced Timex Weekender, and also my gray Timex Expedition Military watch with white numerals. It looks so good on both, and the price is so low I'm considering getting two.Now, why did it not get 5 stars? Well, if you don't have a small wrist, this band is 5/5 easily. But I have a small 6.5 inch wrist, and the last notch barely fits me, it's still a tad loose. If you have small wrists, anythings smaller than 6.5 inches, I'd be cautious getting this strap.

Good quality. will assess durabilty with time.

First I must say the strap looks much better in person than on pictures. That's a good side.On the other hand, there are a few cons:1) The quality is below my expectations. I've noticed that the glue that connects upper layer of the strap with its lining, has dried, or it was simply a very bad glue. Therefore at the buckle's end of the strap near the keepers the upper layer of the strap and the lining are separated from each other. As a result, the buckle cannot stay in place and comes loose, making the gap even bigger. That is what I noticed right out of the box, I haven't even put the strap on the watch yet. Of course I will try to fix it by myself, I guess a few drops of superglue will solve the problem. But, you know, from the very beginning, that is poor quality indeed.2) I expected more thickness for a 26mm strap. They say "medium pad" in description, but, well, "medium" is something abstract, go figure what exactly they meant. Why can not they clearly state thickness in millimeters, same as many others do? Something like "Thickness 4mm" or so. Anyway, I was expecting more padding near lugs area.3) They could include a pair of 26mm spring bars, which would be nice. But they didn't. You need to buy the spring bars by yourself, or use your old ones, if they fits.Why is this important? I know many people is looking for a 26mm replacement straps for Invicta Lupah. Lupah is a popular watch, and 26mm is a default strap size for most of men's Lupah's models.If you buy this strap for Invicta Lupah, you must beware that in most cases you will not be able to use Lupah's default spring bars with that strap. This is because in almost all versions of Lupahs the default strap's spring bars usually have special small thumb for "quick change" feature, which makes them uncompatible with straps made by non-Invicta.This is why it's convenient if seller provides the spring bars with the strap, otherwise you need to buy extra spring bars by yourself. Keep that in mind.4) The description proudly says "Made in the U.S.A." But the sticker on a package says CHINA... Whoops... Looks like the manufacturer tries to mislead the customers?So that will be a 3 stars rating. I've seen much better straps even in that price range.

After restoring my grandfathers 46 year old Seiko, I knew I had to put a Hadley-Roma on it. I've heard nothing but good things about the brand online so after a little searching around, I picked this bad boy up to finish the restore. First, it looks gorgeous. It has a tiny hint of red in it and looks great with the contrast stitching. More importantly, it feels wonderful on the wrist. After about a week, it is plenty broken in and sits perfectly. The build quality is great, however the loops are a bit thinner than some others I've seen. As long as the stitching holds it together, I don't see this being a problem.If you looked at this band in your considerations, buy it. Hadley-Roma makes awesome stuff and I will definitely be buying though them again!
