Awesome watch band!

Rating:*****
I purchased a Silverfoot Thin Clip watchband as a replacement for my watch's original band which was wearing out. I've used it for over a year.

I absolutely love this watchband. It takes a little bit of time get it adjusted to fit initially but then you don't have to worry about doing it again because of the clip closure. I have mine adjusted to allow for a little bit of natural swelling with activity without any problem, yet it stays in place on my wrist and doesn't move up and down or twist around. I have never experienced the bruising or pain the other reviewer had problems with. Also, I've never had problems with the sealed end of the material chafing. It goes with almost anything you want to wear (except perhaps formalwear ;) ). A couple of times I noticed it was showing a bit of dirt (the colors looked a little darker). So I cleaned it with soap, water and an old toothbrush and it looked just like it did when I first bought it. After rinsing it, I simply used a towel to soak up any excess water and it was completely dry in about 15 minutes. No color bleeding! After over a year of daily use, it's showing no signs of wear.

Everyone's preferences are different but I have to say that I love this watchband and could highly recommend it. I've already purchased a second one for another watch.

I really love this watchband. The overall looks and functions are great. I had no problem with irritation, it never loosened as I went about my day. I also found it very easy to readjust, and I think if you are going to be wearing it, once you have it as a set size you should want it to stay there because it will. I had one problem with it, however. I jumped off a bridge into a river and it fell off because the pressure released the snap closure. I am confident that this would not happen in many situations, but if you plan on doing things that could cause this I would go with Silverfoot's Velcro watchbands, which are awesome.

Cute, But Non-Functional

I thought this watch strap was really cute and orginal when I bought it and was really excited to switchover from my yearly ugly plastic watch band buy for my workout watch-- unfortunately the watch strap really didn't work well and ended up bruising my wrist. The strap only adjusts by taking it off the wrist to readjust. This is a bummer when you're hiking and sweaty and just need a little more give. Also, the adjustment mechanism slips as its worn, so at the end of the day your watch is slipping down onto your wrist, a drag to stop and fix while you're working out -- this is what ended up bruising my wrist. The cloth is also slippery, so that cruising down to your wrist is kind of where it wants to be. Also the end of the cloth was hot sealed leaving a painful edge to scrape at the inside of your wrist. Then on style grounds, the pattern turned out to be a little too busy to really work with every outfit. And last, but not least, it's certainly waterproof, but if you shower with it it remains wet for most of the morning, which is a drag.
