22mm Metal Band by MiLTAT22mm Super Engineer II Watch Bracelet, 316L Stainless Steel Straight End

Have ordered strap code Bracelets for years. I always ordered the Jubilee's and EndMills for my turtles. Because of the iconic look of the 6309. But finally pulled the trigger on this bracelet. "Glad i did" The other bracelets taper to18 mm and this is the only one That's 22 all the way down which gives the turtle a more manly look. And does suit the watch Better. But the jubilee is the best look. But as far as comparing case to the band this one looks the best. This band holds the turtle a lot better than the 18mm tapered. Great quality, very comfortable bracelet, highly recommended. On fitted end strap code bracelets always use the pins that come with it. With this Bracelet I found the pins were loose and the band wobbled. I switched them with seiko fat boys and holds tight and fits Perfect, so switch the pins to fat boys. Nice comfortable good looking bracelet pull the trigger !!

Bracelet was originally purchased for a Glycine Airman SST 12 Automatic but after talking with the seller I realized that it wouldn't fit with the supplied 2.5 mm spring bars. I purchased one of these before for my Seiko SARB017 Alpinist and it really dressed up the watch. I ended up using this bracelet on a 22 mm lug space Glycine Combat Sub GL0091. It fit like a charm. Really makes the watch feel substantial. The 2.5 mm supplied spring-bars fit perfectly with this watch. The faceted 316L stainless links are milled from solid steel and with the satin finish, really complement the watch. I especially like the use of stainless steel screws instead of the usual pin and collar you find when sizing a watch. These screws make sizing (and resizing) a snap.The use of screw pins also allows you to fit an alternative buckle if you want something different and know what you are doing...you will just have to contact Strapcode and ask for suggestions and the right part. The fold-over clasp and push-button release buckle that come with this bracelet give you a real sense of security when wearing the watch and like the rest of the bracelet, milled (not pressed) solid stainless steel is used in the components with a real nice finish. When sizing bracelet, the 2.5 mm spring-bars that come with the product will challenge you if the lug-spacing on your watch is too snug so you may want to check with the seller before buying. I was told that you can use a thinner 1.8 mm spring-bar but you may have to buy those separately if you decide to or are compelled to go in that direction. This solution will work and it shouldn't compromise the fit. I have purchased from Strapcode before, they are knowledgeable, offer a competitively priced high-quality product and provide excellent customer support.

This watch band looks and feels, in person, every bit as substantial as you might think it would from looking at the picture. Build quality is SUPERB. It is VERY easy to adjust size, you can adjust it a small amount just by moving a pin in the clasp, but if you need to remove links the pins in the removable links are screw-down and are really nice quality - I wish every adjustable metal band was this easy to deal with. You need a small / jewelers screwdriver (similar to what you would use to work on a pair of eyeglasses) to unscrew the link pin a few turns, and then you just grab it and pull it out. Then remove the link, slide pin back in, and screw it down a few turns. Finish on the band is gorgeous. Clasp is quality and very secure. I just can't say enough how happy I am with this watch band. Keep in mind though, this band is solid stainless steel, thick links, so its a bit on the heavy side. Nothing crazy but if you have never worn a band like this before it will feel different. But its very comfy, does not pinch hairs on your arm or anything. Comes with a very solid set of spring bars, nice quality, which is another positive. 22mm sizing is exact fit no gap. Switched this as a new band for my Seiko diver watch and I love the new look and feel. It is very secure, will be bullet proof in fresh or salt water because it is stainless, and will last forever. I do think you need to match this band with a substantial / bigger watch, putting it on a smaller / thin dress watch it would look silly. Perfect to match with a diver watch, in my opinion.

All the other reviews were right about this watch band. It's high quality stainless steel. None the edges are rounded over like it was cast in mass production and the links are not loose or wobbly. It is a little bit more than the cheaper Hadley bands, but you get what you pay for. The buttons on the side of the locking mechanism are nice. They prevent any accidental opening of the watch band if the clasp get snagged on any clothing. The pins are easily removed with a small screwdriver to adjust the sizing and it's so smart that you can remove the link that attaches to the watch body, so you have full access to the pins, instead of trying to mess with getting around the watch band as a whole.The 2.5mm fat boy pins that come with this band and all other thick diver bands I presume has to be modified to fit and be used with the LG Urbane watch. The lug pins at the ends of the spring pins are too large to fit in the holes in the watch body.Solution: purchase a cheap set of micro files from Amazon and chuck up the pins in a dremel tool and use the files to reduce the diameter of the lug pins. It only takes a few minutes but you'll be happy that you used the original fat boy pins that came with this band, cause you won't find these fat spring pins with smaller lug pins anywhere.
