HNS Watch Bands - Choice of Pattern & Width (18mm, 20mm, 22mm) - Ballistic Premium Nylon Watch Straps

At or around $20, I find these comparable to bands nearly half the price of this. For one, the nylon is not the most comfortable. It isn't very stretchy, making it unideal for long use and activity. It can be somewhat scratchy to the touch. It does an okay but not especially great job of preventing slipping around the wrist. The way the band is designed, most of the material is on the buckle side. On my wrist it looks fine with the watch I use, but it can feel a little off center. It flattens the watch face on top of the flat part of my wrist, so I don't mind it much. Especially on smaller watch faces, it can look a little goofy, especially because there is only one ring on the opposite side. I would've appreciated one more ring on the sparse side even if only for vanity aesthetics, but I think its warranted at this price. Otherwise, aesthetics are certainly this band's strong suit. The variety of colorful and interesting prints is good for a variety of watches. I got one with lots of circles, so it can look a bit odd against the horizontal nylon pattern, but it's not super noticeable after a while. I liken the overall feel to a premium bandaid, the ones we got as kids that had fun prints on them. But at this price, I don't think even the best bandaid is a positive comparison in terms of comfort. The metal pieces are okay but not confidence-inspiring. Like the prints, they look good; mine was rose gold, matches well to both matte and glossy watch faces, and may even be a little more saturated than most. That being said, it's more form over function because they're not as solidly constructed as the metal on your default strap. In a vacuum, I might not care because the prints are generally pretty clean and the clasps emulate watch aesthetic. But for the money, I don't have a ton of tolerance for the quality many cheaper options still manage. To be nearly the same or even slightly worse in terms of materials is disappointing, though not unforgivable given the aesthetic emphasis of this product. Maintains the aesthetic of expensive watches while adding some charm, albeit while not maintaining the feel of expensive watches.

Looks beautiful but you can tell the quality of the dye or ink used isn’t great. The background of the watch isn’t a solid color, it’s kind of a splotchy black/blue/purple tone behind the foliage.

Yes, I was tired of the typical NATO with a solid color of some variation of stripe. Straps are an opportunity to individualize a watch that is mass-produced.In this case, an HNS NATO in blue Sashiko Wave pattern. The pattern isn't as clear as I'd like as it's just a tad blurry. But, the fact is that it's definitely different and unique. HNS has a number of patterns and I've bought two so far. I like this NATO and think it looks good on this watch - a simply three hand Vestal Alpha Bravo.The band itself is good. It's made of the typical ballistic nylon long used for NATO straps and has good hardware with stainless buckle and pin as well as two keepers. It's a good strap in good materials that allows you a different look on your timepiece. Solid four star product.

Perfect replacement band for large-faced Timex watch. More feminine than the original. Very comfortable.

The media could not be loaded.  I bought this nato strap alongside some examples from Swiss Reimagined and BluShark to spice up my watch strap game. I chose the HNS because it is one of the very few legitimate companies selling watch straps with designs and the strap has a signed buckle. I wanted a design that would give tropical vibes for when I go to the beach (and/or get a dive watch), this fit the bill.My initial thoughts on this strap when I received it were not great. The strap came with no box, just a delivery packet with the strap in a plastic sleeve. The strap is also much lighter weight, thinner and less substantial than the BluShark natos I received. The buckle and other metal parts were much lighter and thinner as well.Wearing the strap on my Hamilton, however, I found that the strap was not bad, the thinner fabric made it easier to fold the extra band underneath itself. Additionally a closer inspection shows glue along all edges and in the holes to ensure longevity in the strap.All in all, it’s a decent cheaper strap, the printing doesn’t look blurry or like it will wear out quickly. A solid choice for something different.

This strap is a great value for the price, and perfect if you don’t want something too preppy. The placement of the hardware throughout the strap causes the watch face to not want to settle into the place a watch face should settle. So it looks good but be prepared to fiddle.

Love the look of the band and it totally changes the appearance of the watch. Pay attention to the picture instructions. It will name it a lot easier to figure out how to install these if you've never done it before. Only complaint is that when I have the band installed on the watch so the band is flat when you lay it down, the clasp is too far to the side and sits on the outside of my arm. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong of if my wrists are too small but it's not anything too serious. You just have to know that your watch will be "popped" like your collars used to do. :-)

Un superbe bracelet bonne qualité prix

Love watch strap

Got this strap for my Vostok Amphibia with a submarine on the face and the nautical theme of this strap fit well. The strap is secure and made well enough. Good buy!

Idéal

This is my favorite watch strap! Great quality too.
