Barton Canvas Quick Release Watch Band Straps - Choose Color & Width - 18mm, 19mm, 20mm, 21mm, 22mm, 23mm, or 24mm

I am a watch enthusiast and have many straps and bracelets costing hundreds of pounds, but this Barton strap is one of the most comfortable I have ever worn. It has a casual, ‘summer beach’ sort of feel and it can give a modern casual vibe to many styles of watch regardless of price. It is a light, tough waterproof strap with a simple quick release mechanism. For the price it is difficult to fault. Recommended. Pros Overall performance for the price is excellent. Comfort. I find this to be a seriously comfortable strap. It is one of the few straps I have used at less than £300 where I never find myself fiddling with it because of slight comfort issues. General quality. For the price the stitching is good quality with a good buckle. The holes are reinforced. Easy to fit. The quick release bars work fine. I have fitted it to watches costing between £800 and £1200. Fast drying. I wear a watch 24/7 so it gets regularly soaked and it dries within a couple of minutes on the wrist. Suits many styles of watch. The strap design sits between being staid and a little formal to casual beach style and therefore can be used to dress down more formal dress style watches to enhancing casual funky watches. Excellent hot weather strap. This strap is very cool on the wrist in hot weather. Cons Some colours such as blue do quickly fade a bit but this can enhance to look depending upon your needs. I have a black strap that has not faded. Some may consider that the adjustment holes are a little rough and ready but they are well sized and don’t detract from the overall look of the strap. Some may consider the strap a little rigid or hard, however it does loosen up if you soak it a few times. Personally I think the slight inflexibility is what gives it a good fit to the wrist and enhances its comfort.

So far very happy with my choice of strap, the khaki colour matches my bronze diver absolutely perfectly. Now let us get down to the strap review. Comfort firstly I was pleasantly supprised to find the strap very comfortable straight out of the box no breaking in required it was comfortable to wear all day long. So no problems here. The finish and build quality I found very good for the price point. The attention to detail on the stitching is excellent all perfectly straight with reinforcement around the sizing holes for extra durability. The brushed stainless steel buckle is also of good quality and matches the style of strap perfectly. The quick release spring bars are always a bonus providing they are of a decent strength and quality finish and these seem fine. As for the longevity of the strap and quick release spring bars only time will tell but I honestly can't forsee any problems. Now for the negatives, this will be quick as I can't find any just one or two little niggles. Firstly and this is not a fault of the strap but I would have liked to have seen these with different buckle finishes for example polished, brushed and PVD coated. Not quite a deal breaker but mine would have looked better with a black PVD coated buckle to match the crown. I would have liked the strap to be a little thicker but having said that it probably would not be as comfortable and would also cost a little more. Still on the fence with the thickness as I would not like to trade it for the comfort factor. Just to summarise these straps are excellent for the money in all the areas that matter the most, I am just hoping I can say the same in time for the longevity of the strap. I will update with some more thoughts after I have owned this strap for enough time to test it properly. I can see several more of these beauty's on the horizon to complement some of my other watches. Thanks for taking the time to read my little review. Regards Gary...

Great strap, very subtle blue that goes with a subtle dial. It does wash out and loose colour in water so don't swim with it. If you need a strong colours these Nylon straps are not the best but for subtle non divers I can't say enough good about them.

This is my third Barton strap, as there's nothing else out there that matches them for quality, design, range and value. Add to that the clever quick release system that makes changing the straps a breeze, and you have a winning formula. I have been looking for a genuine cotton canvas (as opposed to the ubiquitous nylon) to replace an original Hamilton strap for years, and the Barton is far better quality with a huge range of colours. I've also bought the top grain leather and suede straps and each one has been great. It's also important to add that these straps are not tapered, and have a squared off end. Difficult to find, but infinitely better looking, so that's another added bonus. So if you've seen a new watch that you fancy, but don't like the strap that it comes with, then just replace it with a Barton. It never ceases to amaze me how a strap can completely change the look of a watch. Or, better still, cheer up that old friend that lies in your room by buying a couple of alternatives to give it a great new look! Thoroughly recommended.

After less than 4 months using this watch strap on a Garmin Vivomove HR, I’ve unfortunately had to give up on it for fear of damaging my watch. It seems that the more the material softens up, the more it has a tendency to deform around the pins and trigger the quick release as I move my wrist. This means the pins pop out of the watch and the watch falls off my wrist. On closer inspection, I can also see that the pins on this strap are a fraction shorter overall than those on the original strap supplied with the watch. This means that only a slight compression of the spring inside the pin causes the pin to pop out of the holes in the watch. It’s disappointing because otherwise this is a well made, comfortable strap that shows no other signs of wear and tear.

Ordered this strap based on positive reviews and visiting the Barton website. Quick delivery through Prime. The strap is absolutely beautifully made and the Khaki colour against a black watch face really looks fantastic. This is the first time I have used "quick release" and it makes attaching and removing the strap a complete breeze. Yes you do pay that little bit extra but the quality, feel and look is absolutely worth the extra money and I will definitely be buying more for my other watches. If your looking for a good quality, durable, lightweight canvas strap that is going to stand out from the crowd then I would without a doubt recommend Barton Watch Bands.

This is a great looking watch strap that's comfortable and the 22mm fits my Fossil Gen5 perfectly. No problem with the build of the strap itself. I had a few problems with the pin holding my buckle in place falling out when I took the watch off. I don't believe the watch would have ever fallen off, the loops would have held it fairly securely. I've replaced the pin anyway just to be safe and had no problems since.

I was really pleased with the way you attach it to your watch. No struggling with a knife to try to release the pin, it has a side clip that you use to insert the pin. Brilliant! When it’s on it’s very comfortable. I have a skin reaction to base metal so that’s why I bought the coated steel so we’ll see if it works. An update to the above yes it doesn’t affect my skin BUT it has faded in the sun as I’ve been wearing it all the time. It looks scruffy now to wear other than gardening or the beach. Shame.

Not very comfortable to wear and type on the keyboard. Wouldn't recommend it for those with desk jobs. However, it is comfortable and breathable, and would recommend for going out on walks or casual wear. With the quick release spring bars, it is simple to detach and attach.

What I like about this watchband is its comfort while wearing. As you well know, some are scratchy and just down right a pain to wear. This one, however, has a different in the feel to the band. I'm eagerly awaiting fall, when it will entirely fit in with the season!

Fits perfectly. Very comfortable. Helps me drive 5mph faster with less fuel.

Producto de muy buena calidad, me ha funcionado muy bien

Looks great nice fit , well made , some day I’ll buy again if it ever wears out
