Leather band itself was decently made and looks nice. The quick change connector however was a different style and about half the diameter of my original watch pin. Leather band is also slit for the tabs which weakens the band. My watch fell off and went under a horse first 24 hours wearing it. Luckily someone else noticed before it was stepped on or lost. $750 watch could have been broken or lost over a $2 part. Since changing back (about a week) to original watch pins has held up fine. Should have changed them day one just didn’t want to have to break the Barton brand pins to get them out but was the best option as to not tear the leather. Beware.
