" ... 18mm fit vintage Bulova watch perfectly. ... Nice look and fit. ... "
" ... It fits the watch perfectly and is easy to put on any take off. ... "
" ... I hope it holds up well in the long term. ... "
" ... The overall length is a bit shorter, and the fixed fabric keeper does a great job of holding the loose end without the bulky fold over of the typical Nato strap. ... The other steel loop that holds the inner and outer straps together is formed tighter than the loops used on a traditional Nato, so the band as a whole seems more secure, and the watch doesn't slide around on the strap. ... "
" ... I bought this in Navy, and it fit perfectly! ... "
