Once I finally replaced the watchbands, they looked very nice.The picture is a good representation of how it looks and the pattern on the band. Runs true to size. When I first put it on my watch, I found it a little scratchy but it very quickly lost its quality and as it became less stiff (as all bands do) it became quite comfortable. So if you get it and are at first uncertain if you like how it feels, give it a few days. It also seems to be fairly sturdy.This is not the first time I purchased this band. I have two Timex watches and with all the hand sanitizer and washing my hands I do at work (I work in an Anesthesia dept at a hospital), I am hard on them. They hold up great abs never fall apart on me like some others have. Sturdy and well made!Length is perfect and soft, pliable leather is easy on my wrist. The pins were a bit difficult to get placed in my watch as they are VERY thin metal. I hope they hold!Soft and pliable leather not stiff like othersGood quality leather, stitching, and comfortably padded on the inside.i like it.Perfect for those with tiny wrist.These watch straps are not cheap, yet mine was dry and hanging by threads because the end had almost broken off and the only thing holding it together was the outside stitching. I had to reorder a watch strap so that I would not lose my watch. Very poor quality for a high price!!Watch band is very nice. It was easy to put on my watch and is of good quality and looks.
